Addressing Equity

Equity At provincial level, The Department motivates its needs to the Provincial Budget Management Committee. The Department received 18.5% of equitable share and 22.3% of total revenue including conditional grants. This compares to the 23.3% average of Provincial Health Departments in the country. Two percent (2%) of the budget on Academic hospital level and Provincial hospital level were shifted to Primary Health Care Services. An equity review is done on an annual basis and informs process towards intra-provincial equity. All districts are undergoing DHER to look at intra-district equity District funding funds the district plans approved by the PHA and managed amongst others through S L A The burden of inflation to the Health sector has a huge impact,especially on replacement of equipment and medical consumables, and therefore equity.
