Kenya’s Strategic Health Purchasing Progress Matrix

Countries, including Kenya, have committed to achieve Universal Health coverage (UHC) and are increasingly reforming their health systems to achieve this goal. Purchasing is one such reform areas and evidence suggests that better progress can be made if purchasing could be done strategically rather than passive. Consequently, there is a need to continuously monitor progress and assess where further reforms may need to be designed or implemented. This a progress matrix indicating the progress Kenya has made in strategic health purchasing and the remaining gaps across three main purchasers: The Ministry of Health, The National Hospital Insurance Fund and the County Departments of Health. This template was created by the Strategic Purchasing Africa Resource Centre (SPARC).

包括肯尼亚在内的诸多国家已承诺实现全民健康覆盖（Universal Health Coverage, UHC），并正持续推进医疗卫生体系改革以达成该目标。医疗采购是此类改革方向之一，现有证据表明，若能采用战略性采购而非被动式采购，可取得更优进展。因此，有必要持续监测改革进展，并评估需进一步设计或落实改革的领域。本数据集为一份进展矩阵，展示了肯尼亚在战略性医疗采购领域取得的进展，以及三大主要采购主体——卫生部、国家医院保险基金及各县卫生部门在该领域尚存的差距。该模板由非洲战略性采购资源中心（Strategic Purchasing Africa Resource Centre, SPARC）编制。
