TL;DR: A preliminary analysis of income and expenditure survey data for 60 countries shows that lower income groups have a greater proportion of households with catastrophic levels of health spending than do higher income groups, and that the highest proportion of catastrophic health spending does not necessarily occur in the lowest income group.

TL;DR: Micro-level household data analysis and macro-level cross-country analysis give empirical support to the hypothesis that risk-sharing in health financing matters in terms of its impact on both the level and distribution of health, financial fairness and responsiveness indicators.

TL;DR: This paper proposes a comprehensive framework focusing on health financing rules and organizations that can be used to support countries in developing their health financing systems in the search for universal coverage.
