1) While European countries have seen major gains in health outcomes over recent decades, this has come at a great financial cost as public health expenditures have outpaced economic growth in most OECD countries.
2) There are still wide disparities among European countries in terms of both health outcomes and spending on health. Life expectancy, mortality rates, and the share of GDP spent on health vary greatly across countries.
3) In response to challenges of ensuring fiscal sustainability of health systems, the OECD created the Joint Network on Fiscal Sustainability of Health Systems to establish dialogue between health and finance ministries and identify best practices for managing health budgets.
A selection of key indicators from "Health at a Glance 2019: OECD Indicators", released on November 7, 2019. More info at http://www.oecd.org/health/health-at-a-glance.htm.
With the NHS as the main area of public interest in the run-up to the 2015 general election, the Health Foundation and Ipsos MORI have conducted just under 1,800 interviews with adults across Great Britain to understand what the public thinks about the issues that are shaping debate on the NHS.
This fourth edition of Health at a Glance: Europe presents key indicators of health and health systems in the 28 EU countries, 5 candidate countries to the EU and 3 EFTA countries. This 2016 edition contains two main new features: two thematic chapters analyse the links between population health and labour market outcomes, and the important challenge of strengthening primary care systems in European countries; and a new chapter on the resilience, efficiency and sustainability of health systems in Europe, in order to align the content of this publication more closely with the 2014 European Commission Communication on effective, accessible and resilient health systems. This publication is the result of a renewed collaboration between the OECD and the European Commission under the broader "State of Health in the EU" initiative, designed to support EU member states in their evidence-based policy making.
This OECD report, launched on January 10, 2017, systematically reviews strategies put in place by countries to limit ineffective spending and waste. Further information: http://www.oecd.org/health/health-systems/tackling-wasteful-spending-on-health-9789264266414-en.htm.

Ageing: Fiscal implications and policy responses -- John Beard, World Health ...OECD Governance

The Ministry of Health and Family Welfare developed the National Health Accounts (NHA) in 2001–02 to support the governance of health systems and enable the design of more effective health policies. This report provides an estimate of the total health expenditure for 2004-05 (taking into consideration the launch of the National Rural Health Mission in 2005), and gives provisional estimates of the health expenditure from 2005-06 to 2008-09.
In the computation of NHA, the World Health Organisation’s (WHO) definition of health expenditure was adopted. NHA includes expenditure on inpatient and outpatient care, hospitals, specialty hospitals, health promotion centres, rehabilitative care centres, capital expenditure on health, medical education, and research and training. It excludes expenses on water supply, sanitation, environmental health and the mid-day meal programme.

Presentation of OECD Government at a Glance 2023OECD Governance
Paris, 30 June, 2023
Presentation by Elsa Pilichowski, Director for Public Governance, OECD.
The 2023 edition of Government at a Glance provides a comprehensive overview of public governance and public administration practices in OECD Member and partner countries. It includes indicators on trust in public institutions and satisfaction with public services, as well as evidence on good governance practices in areas such as the policy cycle, budgeting, procurement, infrastructure planning and delivery, regulatory governance, digital government and open government data. Finally, it provides information on what resources public institutions use and how they are managed, including public finances, public employment, and human resources management. Government at a Glance allows for cross-country comparisons and helps identify trends, best practices, and areas for improvement in the public sector.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

1- improving health outcomes came at a great
financial cost
Public health expenditure has outpaced economic growth in OECD
countries in the last couple of decades and is expected to continue
growing as a share of GDP in the decades to come.

Indeed, in spite of large improvements in
mortality rates, there are still large country
variations.

7. 4- There are also large variations within countries
There are wide disparities in
health outcomes within
countries
By region, by age group, by income
or education level
This is reflected for example in
the unmet needs for medical
examination per income group
8. Therefore, there is room for improving both
quantity and quality of health expenditure
Main challenge: ensuring that new spending in health is as
effective as possible, and brings the highest possible health
benefits
In many countries, fiscal sustainability of health systems is
also an important challenge
the role of the Ministry of Finance is essential!
9. But ensuring VFM/Fiscal sustainability of health spending
is not easy, because health is a particularly complex
spending area
Outcomes are
particularly important
to citizens

10. But ensuring VFM/Fiscal sustainability of health spending
is not easy, because health is a particularly complex
spending area

Need coordination between
Ministries of Finance and
Ministries of health
11. The main objectives of the Joint Network are:
To establish institutional dialogue, clarity of roles, and common
objectives and vocabulary between all actors involved
To identify and disseminate good practices in managing the
budget of the health sector
How does it do this?
Annual meetings of health and finance officials
An analytical framework
Survey of budgeting practices for health
Analytical papers
Country case studies
1st publication compiling 3 years work in 2015
This is why the OECD created the
Joint Network of Health and Budget Officials
on Fiscal Sustainability of Health Systems

There is a great variety of treatments of health expenditure in the
budget across OECD countries
14. 14
For example, in some countries, 100% of health
expenditure are in the budget (UK), while only a small
fraction may appear in other countries (France, Austria)

Early warning systems (EWS) Delay in reporting health expenditure to
central budget agency
Many countries have an early warning system, but information can
take up to two years to reach the MoF, which does not allow for
timely responses
16. 16
And the survey revealed that budget over-spending
in health is very frequent in OECD countries

What are the next steps for the Joint Network?
Great interest from WHO, World Bank, IDB, etc. to use the Joint
Network approach and tools in non-OECD countries, to help
countries improving their health outcomes without
compromising their fiscal position.
Creating dialogue between health and finance officials
Identifying main challenges and bottlenecks in health financing
Ensuring value for money and effectiveness of new expenditure on health
Exchanging good practices in budgeting for health
Plan to expand the Joint Network to other regions and non-OECD
countries: CESEE, LAC, Asia, Africa
Carry out the survey on budgeting practices for health
Hold meetings with Health and Budget officials
Carry out in-depth country reviews
18. 18
What are the next steps for the Joint Network?
Would your country be interested in participating in such a
project? i.e.:
Identifying the relevant person in the MoF in charge of the health budget
Participating in a CESEE Joint Health-Finance Meeting
Answering the survey on budgeting practices for health
