The document discusses the role of government in the U.S. healthcare system across federal, state, and local levels. It notes that while the U.S. government is less involved than other countries, it still plays roles in regulating healthcare through over 130,000 pages of rules, financing care for groups like the poor and elderly through programs like Medicare and Medicaid, and providing some direct services. It also describes the activities of different government agencies and levels, and concludes that the lack of a national health plan has necessitated government involvement in both direct care and regulation.
Shortages in healthcare infrastructure and human resources plague India's primary healthcare system. This includes deficits of doctors, nurses, and other workers, as well as inadequate medicine supplies and health facility infrastructure especially in rural areas. To address these issues, the document proposes a solution that utilizes mobile networks, community health funds, and mobile medical units to improve access, while also increasing healthcare worker training, community involvement, and establishing strong monitoring systems to improve quality and ensure safety.

Strengthening Primary Care Through Performance - Based Incentive SystemHFG Project
The document summarizes the findings from two cycles of research on Indonesia's primary care incentive system under its national health insurance program. The research found that:
1) Health workers' incomes come from various sources, including government salary, capitation payments, regional allowances, and private practice, but the capitation system does not adequately motivate individual performance.
2) There is wide variation in health workers' incomes between districts and facilities based on local policies and patient volumes.
3) While incentive systems exist, they are often based more on attendance and processes rather than quality metrics or achievement of health targets. Respondents recommended revising incentives and indicators to better promote quality primary care performance.
