THE REPUBLIC OF UGANDA HEALTH SECTOR BUDGET FRAMEWORK PAPER FY 2018/19 – FY 2022/23 MINISTRY OF FINANCE, PLANNING AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT Health Budget Framework Paper FY 2018/19 Sector: Health Foreword The Health Sector Budget Frame Paper (BFP) was developed within the context of the Sector Wide Approach (SWAP) premised on the Programme Based Budgeting (PBB) principles. The Sector Budget Working Group in consultation with respective programmes and sub-programmes identified the sector outcomes, outputs and planned activities for )LQDQFLDO<HDU )< DQGWKHPHGLXPWHUP The structure of the BFP for FY 2018/19 is therefore, in accordance with the Sector Programmes that link financial resources and other inputs to sector outputs and outcomes in a precise and coherent manner. The PBB provides a useful tool to improve how the sector makes decisions on allocating its resources, and helps to identify opportunities to improve the efficiency of public spending on health. PBB links outcome, output and activity performance indicators and targets with budget allocations over the medium term. This creates opportunities for efficiency-enhancing measures and redeployment of cost savings to meet priority needs. The priority actions within Programmes and the intra Programme allocations are in pursuance of an input mix that leads to the attainment of the Sector goals. Priority actions and resource allocations for the sector are guided by jointly agreed undertakings in the Health Joint Review Mission and the Sector Budget Working Group within the realm of the National Development Plan (NDP) and the Health Sector Development Plan (HSDP). Despite, the limited resource envelope to the sector notwithstanding, particular attention will be paid to areas that harness efficiency gains that will lead to improved service delivery and these include: 1. -
