Health financing reforms only deliver meaningful change when they translate into stronger systems and better access to care. For Nigeria, this means ensuring that new financing mechanisms are not only established, but sustained and used to address gaps in primary healthcare delivery.
As the country works to strengthen domestic health financing, attention must remain on what happens after policy is passed: how reforms are implemented, monitored and connected to health outcomes.
