image of National Health Accounts of Kazakhstan

This report assesses how Kazakhstan measures up in the development and application of its national health accounts, delivering a set of recommendations to improve the country’s health care financing information. As Kazakhstan has made significant economic progress over recent decades, health has risen on the policy agenda with a number of sector reforms introduced to modernise the system and improve the health of the population. Informing this agenda and monitoring progress towards health system goals requires accurate, timely and comprehensive information on health care financing and spending. A clear understanding of the resource allocations and drivers in the health sector is a prerequisite to support health system performance in Kazakhstan.

Adjusting NHA of RK to improve comparability with OECD countries

The System of Health Accounts 2011 framework considers current health expenditure (which equates to final consumption expenditure of resident units on health care goods and services) as the main spending aggregate and most international comparisons are based on this aggregate and its subcomponents. It is therefore important to report current health expenditure in a comparable fashion.
