This publication summarizes the proceedings of a senior policy seminar held in Johannesburg, South Africa. The seminar examined two facets of sustainable health care financing: using available resources more effectively to extract more value for the money; and raising additional revenues for health care. Topics included orienting public health resources toward primary health care, improving control of and accountability for district financing, improving hospital efficiency, and making more effective use of donor funding.
