About the Health Finance and Governance Project
The Health Finance and Governance (HFG) Project works to address some of the greatest challenges
facing health systems today. Drawing on the latest research, the project implements strategies to
help countries increase their domestic resources for health, manage those precious resources more
effectively, and make wise purchasing decisions. The project also assists countries in developing robust
governance systems to ensure that financial investments for health achieve their intended results.
With activities in more than 40 countries, HFG collaborates with health stakeholders to protect families
from catastrophic health care costs, expand access to priority services – such as maternal and child
health care – and ensure equitable population coverage through:
•	 Improving financing by mobilizing domestic resources, reducing financial barriers,
expanding health insurance, and implementing provider payment systems;
•	 Enhancing governance for better health system management and greater accountability
and transparency;
•	 	Improving management and operations systems to advance the delivery and effectiveness
of health care, for example, through mobile money and public financial management; and
•	 Advancing techniques to measure progress in health systems performance, especially
around universal health coverage.
The HFG project (2012-2018) is funded by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and
is led by Abt Associates in collaboration with Avenir Health, Broad Branch Associates, Development
Alternatives Inc., the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, Results for Development
Institute, RTI International, and Training Resources Group, Inc. The project is funded under USAID
cooperative agreement AID-OAA-A-12-00080.

Drawing on the latest research, the project implements strategies to help countries increase their domestic resources for health, manage those precious resources more effectively, and make wise purchasing decisions. The project also assists countries in developing robust governance systems to ensure that financial investments for health achieve their intended results. With activities in more than 40 countries, HFG collaborates with health stakeholders to protect families from catastrophic health care costs, expand access to priority services – such as maternal and child health care – and ensure equitable population coverage through: • Improving financing by mobilizing domestic resources, reducing financial barriers, expanding health insurance, and implementing provider payment systems; • Enhancing governance for better health system management and greater accountability and transparency; • Improving management and operations systems to advance the delivery and effectiveness of health care, for example, through mobile money and public financial management; and • Advancing techniques to measure progress in health systems performance, especially around universal health coverage. The HFG project (2012-2018) is funded by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and is led by Abt Associates in collaboration with Avenir Health, Broad Branch Associates, Development Alternatives Inc., the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, Results for Development Institute, RTI International, and Training Resources Group, Inc. The project is funded under USAID cooperative agreement AID-OAA-A-12-00080.
