Background
• GDP per capita was 2,060 US$ or 7,010 PPP US$ (2002), with a growth rate of 2.9% (average for 1990-2001).
• HDI in 2002 was 0.768; rank 76th (Human Development Report 2004)
• 2001 achieved Universal Health Care Coverage
• NHA well-established, 3 dimensional matrix for 1994-2001 are available
• Current Health Expenditure (CHE)
• High burden from HIV/AIDS: Disable Adjusted Life Year (DALY) loss = 17% among men and 9% among women in 1999
Current H exp. 2000 2001 2002 2003
CHE per Capita (USD) 63 58 70 76

HIV/AIDS situation in Thailand
• PMTCT covered 85% of HIV pregnancies, pediatric HIV 98% and breast milk substitution 88% (Dept of Health 2004)
• ART: 350 US$ per patient year, target = 5-60,000 pt in 2004
number
HIV infections (adults and children) 1,033,424
Deaths (adults and children)1 398,367
PWHA1 635,057
New HIV infections in 20021 23,676

Objectives
• To develop methodological approaches for the construction of NAA.
• T o construct NAA for four years, 2000-2003, in order to estimate total HIV/AIDS expenditure by finance agencies and healthcare functions.
• To provide policy recommendations on financing HIV/AIDS.

Conceptual Framework
• Based on the principle of Thailand National Health Account (NHA) which was adapted from OECD’s System of Health Account
• Tracking HIV/Aids expenditure flow on two dimensions– Financing Agencies (FA)
– Healthcare Function (HC)
• The third dimension of health care provider (HP) was dropped, as most of HIV/AIDS services were provided by public providers

Sources of Financing Agencies
• 5 Government agencies– Ministry of Public Health– Other ministries– Local Government– Civil Servant Medical Benefit Scheme (CSMBS)– Social Security Scheme (SSS)
• 2 Non Government Agencies– Out of Pocket Payment– Rest of the World (ROW)

Categories of Healthcare Function
I. Current Health Expenditure– Curative Services e.g., OI treatment, STI
treatment, ART– Preventive Services e.g., PMTCT, VCT, safer sex
practices, blood safety
II. Healthcare Related Expenditure– Education and Training– Research and Development
• Capital Formation on AIDS program can be inserted here (Dropped from this version)
III. Memorandum Items– Impact mitigation of AIDS (care for orphan,
protecting rights of PLWA and social supports)– Social research

• Scope – Actual expenditure – not budget figures – Only recurrent expenditure included, capital
investment excluded.
• Data source– Secondary data collection on actual expenditure
where available – Government agencies report on the use of budget – Where 2nd data is not available
• Estimate based on PQ approach • Unit cost of services • Total services rendered

HIV/AIDS expenditure by healthcare functions
• Spending on OI and ART take major share to total current spending
• Trade off between OI and ART– OI 48.6% - 32.8% (2000 - 2003)– ART 19.3% - 45.6% (2000 - 2003)

Public and Household Spending on OI treatment
• Household expenditure on OI was then significantly reduced
• UC in 2001 no financial barrier to access health care services
• 30 Baht (0.75 USD) per visit or admission for any treatment including OI was very minimum to household income.

Financing ART program by sources of financing agencies
• Households shouldered a significant proportion of expenditure on ART.
• The universal ART program started with naive PHA (the inexperienced cases) where the first line regimen was provided free.
• The financing of the ongoing ART patients (the experience cases) was more expensive as most of them were on the second line regimens, and not fully provided by the National ART program.

AIDS expenditure, selected Countries, 2003
• Thailand spending on HIV/AIDS was considerable low compared to the first leading Burden of Diseases attributed to HIV/AIDS and unsafe sex practices.
• The larger part was spent on ART and OI treatment
• Compared to other countries, Thailand spending on prevention was the lowest (10%) and household shouldered the highest portion.

Policy implication
• NAA – Invaluable information on resource tracking – The stepping stones for future investment and financial re-orientation of national AIDS program
• To renew prevention efforts• Universal ART Increasing investment in VCT
– To ensure safe sex among those not yet infected. – To identify asymptomatic HIV for early recruit for better clinical outcome and survival– To ensure adherence to ARV
• Effective program of monitoring ARV resistance requires • financial support and high skill human resources

Recommendation
• To develop NAA in country– Consensus on dummy table, – Starting with a simple two dimension matrix (FA and HC)– FA: Public and Donor Expenditure (the major share of total spending)
• The process of NAA development– Local initiative to ensure ownership– Capacity strengthening of local scientists to maintain and routine update– Technical supports from international agencies such as WHO, UNAIDS and others– A regional collaboration can be one of the entry points to stimulate and support such
development
