The Burden of Out-of-Pocket Health Spending in Bangladesh

2024
BHRF Policy Committee, Editor: Rashed Rabbi

A reporter's research compendium on household out-of-pocket health expenditure in Bangladesh — what the data shows, where the gaps are, and how to read it.

BHRF commissioned this compendium ahead of its 2024 coverage cycle on health financing. The report aggregates findings from the Bangladesh Health Account, BBS HIES rounds, and the most recent World Bank household survey, and lays out what the data does and does not support. It includes data tables, methodology notes, and a chapter aimed specifically at reporters on how to interpret and cite out-of-pocket figures responsibly.
