Abstract:

The idea for developing this set of training materials arose from the ÔAffordability Ladder ProgramŐ (ALPS). The ALPS initiative focused on the experience of households of illness and of seeking health care. As the name would suggest, a key focus of ALPS was that of affordability and other aspects of access to health care for households. The ALPS team recognised that almost all of the training materials presently available focus on illness and health services from the health systemŐs perspective, with little or no attention devoted to the perspective of households. The training materials can be used for a diverse set of target groups, but are primarily aimed at current and future health sector managers. It is also envisaged that the case studies can be used on an ad-hoc basis in post-graduate programs such as Masters in Public Health programs. Six case studies have been prepared for this course: Experiences of households in Sri Lanka; Availability of health services and resource allocation; Affordability of drugs in the context of the World Trade Organisation (WTO); Tax and insurance funding for health systems; Health service acceptability issues; Access board game.
