| Résumé : |
Uzbekistan has one of the lowest estimated life expectancies in the WHO European Region (64.8 years for males and 71.5 years for females in 2012). The government remains the principal owner and public funder of the health system and the private sector is still small.
Being one of the poorest countries in the WHO European Region, one of the main challenges is the limited coverage of the publicly financed benefits basket and the large scale of private out-of-pocket payments. The share of public expenditure has increased in recent years, and the government has tried to protect the most vulnerable groups of the population, but for many people secondary or tertiary care and outpatient pharmaceuticals have to be financed from their own resources, resulting in inequities in access to health services. |
