Putting Aid in its Place: A New Compact for Financing Health Services
Tom Drake et al.
February 27, 2023
Global health financing is due for a reckoning. Deteriorating macroeconomic conditions, alongside consequences of the war in Ukraine, and economic scars left by the COVID-19 pandemic have left many low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) with low or negative growth, increasing debt and highly uncer...
CGD NOTES
The Future of Global Health Spending Amidst Multiple Crises
Amanda Glassman et al.
January 17, 2023
This CGD note summarizes the implications of the macroeconomic context and broader financing outlook for domestic and external health spending and proposes a “menu” of policy options to keep health spending on track and blunt negative impacts on health systems and population health around the world.
Blog Post
A Looming Crisis of Public Finances Spells Trouble for Universal Health Coverage in Low- and Middle-Income Countries
Y-Ling Chi et al.
November 21, 2022
As the world faces multiple crises and the economic and health scars left by the pandemic are still evident, it is clear that governments are unlikely to sustain pandemic-era health spending increases in this recovery phase. How can LMICs align their plans and discourse around universal health cover...

Why We Need to Hike Taxes on Alcohol, Tobacco, and Sugar-Sweetened Beverages
Amanda Glassman
and
Chris Lane
October 31, 2022
Many premature deaths from non-communicable diseases can be prevented if countries enact forceful measures to reduce the risk of their citizens falling prey to these diseases. Making it more expensive to consume tobacco, health-harming alcohol, and sugar-sweetened beverages is key to governments ach...
Blog Post
Protecting Health Taxes in an Inflationary World
Chris Lane
July 20, 2022
In this blog, I examine why policymakers should ensure that inflation does not erode corrective taxes on killer products and make them more affordable. Using a survey of recent health tax measures, I show that some countries have ensured that health taxes are stepped up while most have hesitated, an...
Blog Post
How LAC Countries Can Protect the Health of Their Populations in a New Economic Reality
Ursula Giedion et al.
July 15, 2022
In this blog, we look at how economic conditions are likely to further compromise public health financing in the region, how smaller health budgets will be coupled with increasing demands, and what policymakers can do to minimize the negative impact on the health of their populations.
WORKING PAPERS
Meeting Health Challenges in Developing Asia with Corrective Taxes on Alcohol, Tobacco, and Unhealthy Foods
Chris Lane
April 20, 2022
In developing Asia there is potential for higher corrective taxes to help prevent many non-communicable diseases (NCDs) and contribute revenue. The productivity loss from death and disability from alcohol, tobacco and diets high in sugar-sweetened beverages in purchasing power parity dollars is PPP$...
CGD NOTES
The IMF and Health Taxes: Progress Falters during COVID-19 Emergency
Chris Lane
March 03, 2022
Corrective taxes on harmful products—health taxes—are a cost-effective way to save lives and generate additional tax revenue. In new research, we show that health tax measures during COVID-19 have diminished in number and strength because the international community has mobilized additional, largely...
Blog Post
The Opportunity Cost Neglect in Healthcare: Bad Choices Are Not About Overspend But Life Lost
Ursula Giedion
and
Javier Guzman
December 13, 2021
In the language of economists, opportunity cost refers to the return or other forms of benefit that we could have received, but gave up, to take another course of action. In mathematical terms, it is the difference between the utility of what we have chosen and that from the foregone choice. Or, in ...
Blog Post
Corrective Taxes to Save Lives
Chris Lane
and
Amanda Glassman
November 17, 2021
Governments use corrective taxes to reduce the use of products that harm well-being and create costs not just to society at large (externalities) but also to individual consumers who may underestimate the future health consequences of their current consumption. Taxes on gas to reduce pollution or on...
