Improving efficiency in financial process of the National Health Security Scheme

چکیده
Background The National Health Security Scheme was established 10 years ago with the document finance model in communicating the transfer of budget from payer to providers. This model was found to be inefficient in transferring (17 billion Baht delay) or not knowing the amount transferred (33 billion Baht bad debt). A new ageing account model was developed 3 years ago to improve efficiency in financial process. It is interesting to know whether the change achieved the efficiency. This research also wanted to compare efficiency in financial process of all three government health insurance funds managed by the National Security Health Office (NHSO managing the universal coverage scheme), the Social Security Office (SSO managing insurance for workers in private sector) and the Comptroller General Department (CGD managing insurance for civil servants and dependents).
