NATIONAL HEALTH ACCOUNTS 2017

Abstract

The National Health Account (NHA) has been a major undertaking by the Ministry. The findings represent a thorough analysis of health expenditure trends by different players in the health sector. In order to provide a picture of overall health financing that is dedicated to the health sector, expenditure data for the government of Nigeria, Household out of Pocket, Development Assistance for Health as well as private employer’s expenditure on health have been incorporated in this estimate. The Report provides evidence–based analysis on expenditure information that is critical for the formulation of health financing policy, resource mobilization strategies; as well as a basis for periodic evaluation and decision making.
