10 Figure 1.1 Census population, 1969, 1980, 1991 and 2002 and mid- year (2010) projection (in millions) We notice that Uganda s population has continued to grow over a period of time It increased from million in to million in at an average annual growth rate of between and More than half of Uganda s population percent is females as shown in the Table below Table 1.1: Demographic characteristics and health indicators Region National Target Population Northern Eastern Western Central Total Female 3,786,952 4,316,624 4,148,820 4,274,920 16,527,316 Male 3,495,648 3,984,576 3,829,680 3,946,080 15,255,984 Children < 1yr 313, , , ,503 1,366,688 Children >5yrs 1,471,084 1,676,841 1,611,656 1,660,642 6,420,223 Children >15yrs 3,568,474 4,067,588 3,909,465 4,028,290 15,573,817 Expected Births 353, , , ,719 1,541,494 Expected 364, , , ,050 1,589,165 Pregnancies Expected TB cases 21,849 24,907 23,937 24,663 95,356 Total 13,374,495 15,245,163 14,652,518 15,097,867 58,370,043 10

11 2.0 HEALTH INPUTS These are the building blocks and important inputs in the implementation of the Uganda National Minimum Health Care Package UNMHCP The delivery of the UNMHCP is largely dependent on Finance Human resource Infrastructure equipment medicines and other health supplies The HSSP II objective for the health infrastructure development was to ensure that of the population lies within km walking distance to access a well equipped health facility regardless of level of facility 2.1 Financing in the Health Sector Financing is one of the six interdependent health system building blocks the others being the workforce services technology information and governance The per capita health expenditure in Uganda is estimated at USD of which the public sector contributes development partners and household MOH NHA More than of the household expenditure is spent on out of pocket health expenses The per capita requirement for the provision of UNMHCP in all facilities was estimated at USD in and is expected to rise to USD in the financial year HSLP Africa limited This trend has important implications on service delivery as it implies the need for further priority setting based on the UNMHCP 2.2 Off budget funding Development assistance continues to play a major role in financing health services but a bigger proportion of this is off Budget This means that there is high expenditure of donor funding for off budget activities Ministry Of Health has information on general budget support and project support to the Health 11

12 sector but not off budget support According to MOFPED report in FY off budget funding constituted USD $ million while the overall health budget stood at US $ million Ministry of Health has had a difficult time tracking donor off budget support as most donors chose where to direct the off budget support and this support may or may not necessarily be within MOH set priorities This brings in a challenge for the MOH in tracking how much money the donors give to the health sector Reports from about HDPs in financial year indicated that about Billion Ushs was off budget support to the health sector It is also important to note that most of the health financing by HDPs largely goes to the three diseases of HIV AIDS TB Malaria and Blood Transfusion services For example of the funding for Uganda Blood Transfusion Services is from donors Table 2.1: Health sector DP expenditure for 2008/ /10 Name of Development Partner Project support to Health Sector for FY 2008/09 in Million USD Project support to Health Sector for FY 2009/10 in Million USD On Budget Off Budget On Budget Off Budget DANIDA Sweden Germany World Food Programme African Development Bank Ireland JAPAN Belgium Italy European Union UNICEF UNFPA WHO

15 The figure above shows that households constitute a major source of health financing followed by donors and then government Households spend about of their household consumption expenditure on health although no user fees are paid in lower level government health units Recent studies show that of all ACTs are paid for of the households in Uganda are experiencing catastrophic payments with considerable variations by wealth quintile and region to were pushed into impoverishment because of medical bills Catastrophic health expenditure actually increased from to between and despite the elimination of user fees in Private health insurance which is largely subsidized by employers on behalf of employees is for a few only The establishment of the National Health Insurance Scheme as a health financing mechanism which is in advanced planning stages will gradually address the above issues Functionality of health facilities largely depends on adequate staffing levels financial inputs availability of equipment and availability of minimum required services Functionality of health centre VIs remains a big challenge as districts in rural areas have poor staff attraction and retention abilities which has greatly affected the adequacy of health care service delivery in such areas 15

21 3.0 HEALTH OUTPUTS This section presents a summary of some of the key health outputs including the district League Table and the HSSP II indicators These indicators are used to measure the national and district performance in management and health service delivery 3.1 Key Health Indicators for FY 2009/10 Figure 3.1: Summary of Key Health indicators for FY 2008/9, 2009/ The League table The District League table compares sector performance between districts using management and service delivery output indicators The management indicators show the use of the PHC CG expenditure on key inputs proportion of the fiscal decentralization strategy allocated to the health sector and the management of health data 21

22 The National level league table performance average improved steadily in the last three years with a decline in as shown in figure below Figure 3.2: Trends in the League table general performance in the financial years 2006/07, 2007/08, 2008/09 and 2009/ Percentage / / / /10 years Source: Ministry of Health-Resource Center 3.3 Timeliness and Completeness of HMIS reporting This shows the district submission status of the outpatient and inpatient monthly reports to the Resource Centre where T represents a timely report report received by the th of the next month L for a late report report received after the th of the next month and N for no report from a particular district for the month In FY the timely reporting for outpatient increased from to This could have been contributed to by a number of factors like increased HMIS feedback to the districts HMIS regional feedback meetings organized by the Resource Centre Division increased HMIS support 22

23 supervision from National to district and health facility level plus efforts by various Development Partners at district level to provide HMIS reporting tools and support through various ways On the other hand timeliness of inpatient reporting for the same period was This shows an increase from in The completeness indicator also increased from to It should be noted that timelines and completeness for outpatient was higher than that for inpatient reporting Figure 3.3: Timeliness and Completeness in reporting of Inpatient and outpatient reports 2007/8, 2008/9, 2009/ Percentage /8 2008/9 2009/10 Inpatient Completeness Outpatient completeness Source: Ministry of Health-Resource Center 3.4 Outpatient Diagnosis Indicators The summary of outpatient indicators for FY is shown in table below Government and PNFP OPD utilization per person per year OPD Per Capita is among the HSSPII major indicators It measures utilization of health services in both government and PNFP health facilities and is used as the national proxy for access to health care services 23

24 It is expected that each individual should visit a health unit at least once in a year During FY this indicator stood at while it was in the previous financial year Much as we notice an improvement it is still below the HSSP II target of Table 3.1: Outpatient Indicators Indicator FY FY Health Facilities reporting OPD utilization OPD Per Capita Proportion OPD new attendances Proportion OPD re attendances Source: Ministry of Health-Resource Centre 3.5 Immunization Indicators From the figure below the national performance of DPT HepB Hib which is a proxy measure for overall immunization performance for the FY was which is still below the HSSP II target of 24

35 4.0 HUMAN RESOURCES FOR HEALTH Human Resources for Health are essential for the effective operation of the health systems and an important input in the attainment of HSSP II objectives The level of staffing is still low and the regional distribution remains inequitable This is specifically seen in areas that are poorly resourced in terms of social infrastructure and amenities Other limitations that have greatly curtailed HRH are Limited funding for recruitment lengthy recruitment processes and delays in handling the recruitment process at district level Low training outputs and high attrition rates The outputs from the training institutions do not match service requirements Poor retention which is accelerated by poor motivational factors like poor work environment and remuneration Human Resources for Health HRHs remain in short supply both in numbers and in skills mix to effectively respond to the health needs in Uganda The HIV AIDS epidemic has also increased demand on HRHs because of the special skills required for HIV AIDS prevention and treatment 35
