WHO and the World Bank are co-custodian agencies of Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) indicator 3.8.2, one of the financial hardship indicators used to track progress towards universal health coverage (UHC)(SDG target 3.8). SDG target 17.18 calls for all countries to increase the availability of disaggregated data by age and other characteristics relevant to national contexts. In response, WHO, as a normative agency, proposed in 2020 to extend the life-course approach from age groups at the individual level to the household level to monitor inequalities in financial hardship by the age structure of the household. Based on data from 47 countries with household survey estimates for 2015–201...

Abstract: Health systems are not just about improving health: good ones also ensure that people are protected from the financial consequences of receiving medical care. Anecdotal evidence suggests health systems often perform badly in this respect, apparently with devastating consequences for households, especially poor ones and near-poor ones. Two principal methods have been used to measure financial protection in health. Both relate a household's out-of-pocket spending to a threshold defined in terms of living standards in the absence of the spending: the first defines spending as catastrophic if it exceeds a certain percentage of the living standards measure; the second defines spending as impoverishing if it makes the difference between a household being above and below the poverty line. The paper provides an overview of the methods and issues arising in each case, and presents empirical work in the area of financial protection in health, including the impacts of government policy. The paper also reviews a recent critique of the methods used to measure financial protection.
