Unilab Foundation studies to guide fresh govt efforts to cut out-of-pocket health spending

GOVERNMENT regulators and policymakers committed to institute fresh initiatives that would cut the out-of-pocket health spending of Filipinos using the two research papers released recently by the Unilab Center for Health Policy (UCHP), a program of Unilab Foundation, as guides.

During an executive symposium last August 2, UCHP unveiled the results of its two studies titled "Philippine health sector performance: An analysis using the national health accounts of 1990 to 2022" and "Provider payment governance in the Philippines: A proposal."
