Performance-based financing: the same is different

Although it is increasingly acknowledged within the Performance-Based Financing (PBF) research community that PBF is more than just payments based on outputs verified for quality, this narrow definition of PBF is still very present in many studies and evaluations. This leads to missed opportunities, misunderstandings and an unhelpful debate. Therefore, we reinforce the claim that […]

Health Results-Based Financing (RBF) in Practice: Ten Institutional Challenges

Health Results-Based Financing (HRBF) is a cash payment or non-monetary transfer made to a national or sub-national government, manager, provider, payer, or consumer of health services after pre-defined results have been achieved and verified. HRBF is one tool that can be used by governments to increase coverage of the population with high-impact interventions, such as […]
