National health accounts of Armenia, 2015
National Health Accounts (NHA) represent the flow of expenditures in both the public and private sectors of the country’s healthcare sector. It describes the sources, use and flow of funds in the health sector. Health services in Armenia are funded from the following sources: the state budget of the Republic of Armenia, the budgets of local communities, external donor organizations (international organizations), humanitarian aid, private organizations, household funds and other sources. These funds are passed directly or indirectly to financial agents, and from there to final health care providers. The World Health Organization (WHO), based on the need for international standardization of health expenditure accounting, has developed a methodological guideline for the compilation of NHA in cooperation with the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and the European Statistical Office (Eurostat). Based on the above methodology, national health accounts have been compiled in Armenia since 2005. This report is intended for healthcare system organizers, healthcare professionals, and other healthcare professionals interested.
