| Abstract: | • Health is a human right … • UHC seeks to achieve this by ensuring all persons receive the health services they need without suffering financial hardship. • Out of pocket expenses on health in Nigeria still remains very high at 77% • Need for reforms to create fiscal space and convert out-of-pocket payments into pooled funding for health • Pooling funds from compulsory funding sources (eg. Tax revenue) can spread the financial risks of illness across a population (WHO) • Tax for Service is a fit for purpose reform that will improve the fiscal space and attainment of UHC |
