Cambodia - Current Situation Poor health, but steady improvements
Private Out of Pocket (OOP) is main source of financing
80% of population treated in private facilities
Good examples of government & private collaboration to increase access & quality for priority health services

Indonesia – Current Situation
Private sector provides ¾ of all health services
½ of all financing for health is private
“Dual practice” by government clinical staff
Decentralization has led to financing challenges within the national delivery system
Self-treatment for simple ailments is common

Philippines – Current Situation Private health expenditure > than government
expenditure
Poor most often seek healthcare from informal sector: shops, friends, and relatives
Pharmaceutical sales = 46.6% of THE
Strong national leadership + well-managed national health insurance program = foundation for collaboration

Key Message 1: The private sector is pervasive and has been filling the gap in EAP for some time
What’s wrong with the current situation?
The private sector is often unqualified, usually unregulated, overservices or provides ineffective care
And… out-of pocket payment (OOPS) is regressive and penalizes poor.

Key Message 2: Government engagement, let alone "stewardship“, is very limited.
“Stewardship Lite”
But there is opportunity now to review and strengthen.

Key Message 3: There are already very impressive examples of private sector initiatives contributing to the health of children:
Cambodia Indonesia Philippines, Vietnam, Fiji, etc.
![Page 18: The Role of Non State Providers in Child Health in East Asia and the Pacific Dr Abby Bloom Sydney Medical School & Menzies Health Policy Inst Nossal Global](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081505/5514c081550346935c8b4628/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Key Message 4: There is a very broad menu of mechanisms from which Government can choose.
Options are much greater than is generally considered – and
Most are much easier, and less risky, than traditional “PPPs”, and
Have much greater impact on the poor and on equity.
![Page 19: The Role of Non State Providers in Child Health in East Asia and the Pacific Dr Abby Bloom Sydney Medical School & Menzies Health Policy Inst Nossal Global](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081505/5514c081550346935c8b4628/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Key Message 5: Government must answer 3 questions:
1. What are we trying to achieve?
Lower infant mortality? Build and equip new hospitals? Replace inefficient work practices? Improve equity????
2. What options have been proven to achieve these objectives?
Look at the long list of options available – and choose the ones that are likely to have the outcomes Government wants for poor children.

3. What is our country’s capacity to support these initiatives and mechanisms?
To engage and manage the private sector for the "public good"? What is our capacity for stewardship? Are we ready now? If not, what can we do to be ready to manage
technical, financial and economic risks?
Ex: Review & revise legislation, regulations and funding (Mongolia, Vietnam, Indonesia)
Ex: This Workshop: bringing together stakeholders, including Ministries of Finance and NSPs, not just MOH, to consider strategies.
