- W4292616000 abstract "Community-based health insurance initiatives in low- and middle-income countries encountered a number of sustainability challenges due to their voluntary nature, small risk pools, and low revenue. In Ethiopia, the schemes' financial viability has not been well investigated so far. This study examined the scheme's financial viability and explored underlying challenges from the perspectives of various key stakeholders.This study employed a mixed methods case study in two purposively selected districts of northeast Ethiopia. By reviewing financial reports of health insurance schemes, quantitative data were collected over a seven years period from 2014 to 2020 to examine trends in financial status. Trends for each financial indicator were analyzed descriptively for the period under review. Interviews were conducted face-to-face with nine community members and 19 key informants. We used the maximum variation technique to select the study participants. Interviews were audio recorded, transcribed verbatim, and translated into English. Thematic analysis was applied with both inductive and deductive coding methods.Both schemes experienced excess claims costs and negative net income in almost all the study period. Even after government subsidies, the scheme's net income remained negative for some reporting periods. The challenges contributing to the observed level of financial performance have been summarized under five main themes, which include adverse selection, moral hazard behaviors, stockout of medicines, delays in claims settlement for service providers, and low insurance premiums.The health insurance scheme in both districts spent more than it received for claims settlement in almost all the period under the study, and experienced heavy losses in these periods, implying that it is not financially viable for the period in question. The scheme is also unable to fulfill its purpose of protecting members against out-of-pocket expenses at the point of health care. Interventions should target on the highlighted challenges to restore financial balance and enhance the scheme's viability." @default.
