A12.1 Prior to the publication of the Health Financing Strategy document in 2019, a situational analysis, that was done by the government, revealed that we had a fragile health system with a strong dependence on external financing. #SPARCchat

Q12 You mentioned low public financing & high out-of-pocket spending as a challenge for #SHP, limiting its potential impact. Is there any plan to address these especially with additional funding constraints due to #COVID19? #SPARCchat

A11.2 All the planned actions have been envisaged within the framework of the UHC project. Unfortunately, the process has been slowed (almost halted) with the outbreak of the COVID19 pandemic and resource constraints. #SPARCchat

A10.1 Since 2015, the government of Cameroon initiated a process to provide the country with a fully operational Universal Health Coverage scheme by 2035. #SPARCchat

Q10 A potential solution to fragmentation is consolidation of purchasing power in fewer schemes. This is typically political because of stakeholder resistance due to differences in benefit packages etc. Is #NHI the answer to the fragmentation problem in Cameroon? #SPARCchat
