ECONOMIC DETERMINANT OF HEALTH CARE SERVICES IN NIGERIA
ABSTRACT
Healthcare services are vital for the well-being and development of a nation. Nigeria, as Africa’s most populous country, faces numerous health challenges, including high mortality rates, infectious diseases, and non-communicable diseases. These health challenges are intrinsically linked to the economic determinants of healthcare services, which influence access, affordability, and quality of care. This study explores the economic factors shaping healthcare services in Nigeria and their impact on the population’s health and well-being.
The research investigates the economic determinants affecting Nigeria’s healthcare system, including government health expenditure, health insurance coverage, and out-of-pocket healthcare expenditures. Through a comprehensive analysis of economic factors, this study assesses their influence on healthcare access, utilization, and health outcomes. It also identifies the challenges and barriers arising from these economic determinants within the Nigerian healthcare system.
The findings of this study are significant for policymakers, healthcare professionals, and researchers as they provide insights into the root causes of healthcare disparities and inefficiencies in Nigeria. The research contributes to the existing body of knowledge and serves as a basis for advocating for policy changes aimed at improving healthcare access and quality for the Nigerian population. Ultimately, this study seeks to promote evidence-based policies and practices that can address the economic determinants of healthcare services, reduce health inequalities, and enhance the overall well-being of the Nigerian people.
CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Access to quality healthcare services is a fundamental human right, essential for promoting individual and societal well-being. The healthcare system of a country plays a crucial role in the overall health and development of its population. In Nigeria, like many other countries, healthcare services are influenced by a complex interplay of economic factors. The economic determinants of healthcare services have a significant impact on the accessibility, affordability, and quality of care provided to the Nigerian population.
Nigeria, located in West Africa, is the most populous country on the continent. It faces numerous health challenges, including high maternal and child mortality rates, the burden of infectious diseases such as malaria and tuberculosis, and the increasing prevalence of non-communicable diseases like diabetes and hypertension. The economic determinants of healthcare services play a pivotal role in shaping the healthcare landscape of Nigeria, affecting the health outcomes and well-being of its citizens.
Understanding the economic determinants of healthcare services in Nigeria is critical for policymakers, healthcare professionals, and researchers. It can provide insights into the barriers and challenges that hinder the effective delivery of healthcare services and inform strategies to improve healthcare access and quality. This study aims to explore and analyze the economic factors that influence healthcare services in Nigeria and their impact on the health and well-being of the population.
1.2 Statement of the Problem
Nigeria faces a myriad of healthcare challenges, including inadequate infrastructure, unequal distribution of healthcare resources, limited access to essential services, and high out-of-pocket healthcare expenditures. These challenges are often rooted in economic factors that create barriers to healthcare access and utilization. With a large portion of the population living in poverty, the economic determinants of healthcare services are critical in understanding the disparities and inefficiencies within the Nigerian healthcare system.
The economic challenges facing Nigeria’s healthcare system include the low government health expenditure, inadequate health insurance coverage, and limited access to essential medicines. These factors contribute to disparities in healthcare access and outcomes, resulting in a significant burden of preventable diseases and health inequalities. Therefore, this study seeks to investigate the economic determinants of healthcare services in Nigeria and their consequences for the population’s health and well-being.
