Abstract

Background and Aim: Health System financing is the process of collecting, pooling, and allocating financial resources to maintain, restore or promote the health of the people. Developing Countries face many challenges in mobilizing, managing and allocating health financial resources. The aim of this study was to identify sustainable financing methods in Developing Countries. Materials and Methods: This study was conducted using the scoping review. All the studies related to Health System financing methods in Developing Countries were searched in the English electronic databases (i. e., Pubmed, Scopus, Science Direct, and Web of science), Persian electronic databases (i. e., Magiran, Iranmedex, and SID) and Google Scholar and Google search engines using appropriate keywords. Finally, 94 suitable documents were selected and analyzed using the framework analysis method and MAXQDA software. Results: Forty-two methods were identified to strengthen the sustainability and resilience of the health financing system in Developing Countries,these methods were grouped into three categories: collection and management of financial resources, pooling of financial resources and purchasing of health services. The most frequently used solutions to strengthen the sustainability of the health financing system in Developing Countries were as follows: expanding social health insurance plans, integrating multiple health insurance plans, strengthening public-private partnerships, establishing a robust referral system, imposing taxes on harmful commodities, using perspective fixed payment methods, defining needs-based health service packages, promoting donors’,contributions, and reforming health service tariffs. Conclusion: The health financing system in Developing Countries should be strengthened. The financial reforms of the Health System should be accompanied by reforms in providing health services to make possible efficient and effective results. Health policymakers and senior managers should strengthen the governance of the health financing system at the macro level. In addition, healthcare managers should increase the efficiency and reduce resource wastage by strengthening budget capacity and financial management at the micro level.
