  • The Impact of Out-Of-Pocket Expenditures on Families And
    Out-of-Pocket Spending on Maternal and Child Health in Asia and the Pacific Impact of Out-of-Pocket Expenditures on Families and Barriers to Use of Maternal and Child Health Services in Bangladesh Impact of Out-of-Pocket Expenditures on Families and Barriers to Use of Maternal and Child Health Services in Bangladesh Findings from the ADB RETA-6515 Study SUMMARY BRIEF 1 Summary • Bangladesh has made major progress in improving maternal, neonatal, and child health (MNCH), but maternal and child mortality remain high. Continued gains depend on further improving access and coverage to essential MNCH services and reducing inequalities in access. • The technical assistance project conducted several studies to better understand the barriers to access to MNCH care and the impact of out-of-pocket (OOP) spending on households. These included analyses of the national household expenditure surveys, a national survey of public sector facility costs, and an exit survey on OOP expenses faced by public sector patients. • The analysis of household survey data shows that the financial costs of treatment were the major barrier to healthcare for sick mothers and children in Bangladesh. These affect access by the poor the most and discourage use of public sector services, where the cost of medicines was the main cost faced by patients. • The facility cost survey found that operating efficiency at government facilities has significantly improved since the 1990s, with most hospitals now operating at or above capacity. The efficiency gains have led to a halving of the real cost of treating patients in 10 years and further improvements are possible if the size of upazila health complexes is increased and the number of the more cost-efficient district hospitals is expanded.

  • VERIFICATION, CERTIFICATION and RE-VERIFICATION Main Messages Introduction
    VERIFICATION, CERTIFICATION AND RE-VERIFICATION Main Messages 1. Governments will do well to monitor: a. The time lag between when communities request verification and certification, and when these are carried out. Delays and backlogs de-motivate communities. Long-time lags should be reduced. b. The ratio of communities verified as ODF to those not successful the first time. 2. Verification and re-verification should be positive learning experiences for communities, appreciating what has been achieved. When they are found to be not yet ODF, verification should include constructive discussion about the reasons and what can be done about them, encouragement and agreement about action needed and a date for re-verification. 3. In this period of rapid expansion, much can be gained from international sharing of approaches, experiences, lessons learnt and national guides and protocols as they are developed. 4. For validity and credibility the verifications should not be carried out by implementers or those in Government or NGOs who have an interest in positive findings. Rewards to communities or individuals for achieving ODF conditions have led to gross distortions and misreporting. Verification by third party organisations can be prohibitively costly. Third parties in the form of mixed teams may be the most promising way forward. This is a key area for innovation, learning and sharing. 5. Adequate funding, human resources and training are vital for verification, certification and re- verification, as for all components of CLTS. Resource needs should be anticipated and assured well in advance as CLTS goes to scale. Introduction Verification of outcomes, certification and re-verification are major components of CLTS.
