This analysis identified several inefficiencies related to how the financial budget and other financial resources are allocated and spent. It also presented potential actions that can improve resource allocation within the MoHSS budget and address some of the challenges identified during the analysis.

The process guide proposes a broad decision-making framework that can be used to review current practices and move toward more efficient approaches in resource allocation.
This document describes the process to be followed for the regular revisions of the EHSP and presents important elements that support the updating, so that an EHSP that is a sustainable, equitable, and accessible—within financial and other constraints—is delivered to the population.
