    Study Notes

    Health Inequities

    • Health inequities arise from patterns of social stratification, resulting in the unequal distribution of power, prestige, and resources among social groups.
    • They are characterized by the systematic and unjust distribution of social, economic, and environmental conditions necessary for good health.
    • Examples of such unequal distribution include:
      • Access to quality education, healthcare, housing, transportation, and other resources.
      • Employment opportunities and pay/income.
      • Discrimination based on social status and other factors.

    Health Disparities

    • Health disparities refer to the differences in the incidence and prevalence of health conditions and health status between groups, based on factors such as:
      • Race/ethnicity
      • Socioeconomic status
      • Sexual orientation
      • Gender
      • Disability status
      • Geographic location
      • Combinations of these factors

    Health Development Index and Life Expectancy

    • Comparing Health Development Index (HDI) and Life Expectancy at Birth reveals disparities in health outcomes.
    • The Philippines lags behind its ASEAN neighbors in terms of health outcomes.

    Mortality Rates and NCDs

    • Mortality rates of selected diseases are higher in the Philippines compared to Vietnam and Indonesia.
    • Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) are on the rise, even as some infectious diseases are declining.

    Health Sector and Economy

    • The Philippine economy and public health sector have grown significantly in the last decade.
    • However, chronic inequalities in health remain entrenched.

    Human Resource for Health (HRH)

    • The number of HRH professionals has been maldistributed and in shortage.
    • This shortage affects the quality of healthcare in the Philippines.

    Health Inequities and Decentralization

    • Decentralization has fragmented the health system, leading to central-local tensions.
    • Health inequities persist, with life expectancy at birth and infant mortality rates varying greatly across regions.

    Opportunities for Reforms

    • There are opportunities for reforms in the Philippine healthcare system, including addressing health inequities and improving health outcomes.
    • Life expectancy at birth, total (years) is a key indicator of health outcomes.

    Health Financing

    • A good health financing system raises adequate funds for health, ensures people can use needed services, and protects from financial catastrophe or impoverishment.
    • Three interrelated functions: collecting revenues, pooling pre-paid revenues, and purchasing interventions.
    • Priorities: national health financing policies, tools and data on health expenditures, and costing.

    Leadership/Governance/Stewardship

    • Involves ensuring strategic policy frameworks, effective oversight, coalition-building, regulation, system design, and accountability.
    • Building blocks of the health system: organizations, institutions, and resources devoted to producing health actions.

    Health System

    • WHO (2000): Health systems comprise all organizations, institutions, and resources that produce health actions.
    • WHO (2007): Health systems include promoting, restoring, or maintaining health, and compensating for permanent disabilities.
    • Figueras and McKee (2012): A health system includes delivery of health services, activities to enable delivery, and stewardship activities aimed at influencing health impact.

    Service Delivery

    • Good health services deliver effective, safe, quality personal and non-personal health interventions to those who need them, when and where needed, with minimum waste of resources.
    • Services may be delivered in the home, community, workplace, or health facilities.
    • Priorities: packages, delivery models, infrastructure, management, safety, and quality.

    Health Workforce

    • A well-performing health workforce is responsive, fair, and efficient to achieve the best health outcomes possible.
    • Health workers are all people engaged in actions to protect and improve health.
    • Priorities: national workforce policies, investment plans, advocacy, norms, standards, and data.

    Health Information

    • A well-functioning health information system produces, analyzes, disseminates, and uses reliable and timely information on health determinants, system performance, and health status.
    • Three domains: health determinants, health systems performance, and health status.
    • Priorities: facility and population-based information, surveillance systems, and global standards.

    Medical Products, Vaccines and Technologies

    • A well-functioning health system ensures equitable access to essential medical products, vaccines, and technologies of assured quality, safety, efficacy, and cost-effectiveness.
    • Priorities: health sector policies, harmonization, alignment, oversight, and regulation.

    ASEAN – a regional body for health governance

    • ASEAN Way: consensus-based decision-making, non-interference in internal affairs, sovereignty, and respect for independence and national identity.
    • Challenges: lack of economic commitment, limited data collection and analysis, and coordination with WHO.
    • Objectives: promote exchange of experiences and best practices, not to prescribe uniform rules or deliver policy outcomes.
