CONCLUDING REMARKS
Aim high for health.
Sintax reform has generated substantial resources for UHC in the Philippines.
Reforming tobacco and alcohol taxation is a sustainable financing source for UHC.
Need to spend wisely. Importance of comprehensive, holistic approach under a medium term expenditure framework.
No room for complacency. Continued vigilance necessary to ensure effective implementation of reforms.

CONCLUDING REMARKS
Understand the mindset of Finance Ministry officials.
Predictable revenues are important to them.
How to balance the financing demands from various sectors, i.e. education, health, infrastructure etc.
UHC can be a bottomless pit, thus the need for cost effectiveness and efficiency measures. Looks at value for money.
Generally against earmarking as preference is One Fund concept which allows flexibility.
