Expenditure tracking in health
care
National Health Accounts
Tomas Roubal
WHO, South Africa
Two messages
• What is the health accounts, and what
information do they give?
• How NHAs can help us in accessing the value
for money expenditures?
1) System of Health Accounts
• Internationally recognized accounting system for
health
– Expenditures by provider, type of care and source of
financing
• Updated version was published in 2011 – System of
Health Accounts 2011
• What is new is to measures spending per beneficiary
groups
– expenditure by disease and condition (including maternal
health)
– expenditure by age
– also by region
International commitment
• WHO convened a meeting in Geneva in February 2014
to discuss the information needs and what NHAs may
or may not respond
• Participants:
– Countries (Tanzania, Burkina, ground, Liberia, Ghana,
Thailand, Burundi, China)
– Development partners (UNAIDS, GAVI, UNFPA, WHO,
Global Fund, Gates, USAID, SIDA, World Bank, NIDI, CHAI,
Abt, Futures, PEPFAR, OECD)
• Agreement that expenditure tracking are integrated
through the System of Health Accounts
Data sources

• Data from the private sector
– Private insurance, surveys on household expenditures,
expenditures by companies, NGOs
• External resources

2) Short history in South Africa
• 1990s – Health Expenditure Review
– geographic disparities, disproportionate spending on
hospital-based care in the public sector, and severe cost
escalation in the private sector
• late 1990s – National Health Accounts (NHA) Project
– evaluates reforms, reveals two eras of public health sector
financing
– data from 1998/99 indicate falling per capita financing of
health care by government, a reversal of re-distribution
trends between provinces and limited growth in PHC
expenditure
– decline in value for-money in the private sector, prior to
the implementation of the Medical Schemes Act
NHA – macro view on expenditures
• Where is South Africa internationally
– % GDP on health
– % of public expenditures on health
– Out of pocket payments
• How do provinces compare
– Role of public and private financing
– How much is spent on investment & administration
• What are the changes over time
• On which diseases are spending money
Benefits for South Africa
• Budget preparation for 2017-2019 on provincial and central
level
• Support NDoH and provincial DoH in discussion on raising
resources for health
• Evaluate expenditures of provinces on hospitals, clinics,
primary care
• Private/public sector expenditure comparison
• Administrative costs of the health system on various levels
(central, provincial, district)
• How much are people paying out-of-pocket in hospitals,
clinics, pharmacies (in various provinces/districts)
Evaluation of reforms
• Monitor the impact of recently introduced
resource re-allocation policies in time;
• Provide data to assist in the development of threeyear rolling budgets for the public sector;
• Evaluate health sector efficiency;
• Are expenditures linked to burden of diseases; and
• Inform the development of new policies.
Answers on questions
• Who controls the resources and their flows
– Public x private, central x provincial x provider
• Who is paid to provide health services
– Primary care, hospitals, specialists, clinics
• Do we channel the money to care the
population needs
– Diseases, age/gender information, type of care
• Is our system efficient
– Investments x administrative costs x health services
