Pay-for-Performance Schemes for UHC and Tuberculosis

Brown Bag Discussion

June 1, 230-4pm (Zoom)

Context:

1. the pandemic has accelerated digital transformation in the health sector with telehealth, mobile banking, QR codes for vaccination cards, remote learning, and moves towards smart cities providing an ecosystem of technologies (albeit fragmented)


2. PhilHealth, DOH, and HMOs have been striving towards improved cost-effectiveness through Universal Health Care with some experiments in outcome-based incentives


3. USAID TB projects have been trying to improve outcomes through technical optimization, but leverage in terms of medium-term impact/outcome-based financing is limited


4. The Problem Driven Iterative Adaptation methodology cultivates the emergence of new institutional arrangements through a series of prototypes and iterations


Objectives:

1. advance the discourse and design work on health Pay-for-Performance mechanisms with an initial focus on TB

2. engage stakeholders and possible funders for a TB pay-for-performance mechanism

3. co-create revenue models for the participants in the TB value-chains and other stakeholders


Part 1 - Calabarzon TB Pay-for-Performance Scenario: Ecosystem Mapping for a CALABARZON Pay for Performance in TB in relation to USAID's Journey to Self Reliance

  2. Explore national and provincial TB End Game scenarios in terms of donor- and post-grant scaleup and sustainability

  3. Map out health and financing ecosystem that determine TB outcomes
