Costing

About this resource

This study takes an activity-based approach to costing with a focus on recurrent costs at the facility level. The choice was made to focus on recurrent costs – defined as personnel time, drugs, consumables and overhead – in order to best inform the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) Gateway of the BHCPF, which covers the BMPHS. Given the emphasis of the BHCPF on direct service delivery, it considers only facility-level costs and excludes: (a) programmatic costs, (b) local, state and federal level administrative cost and (c) capital costs, which are covered under the second major component of the BHCPF, the National Primary Health Care Development Agency (NPHCDA) Gateway.
