定价政策可以作为一种低成本、有效的工具，增加贫困家庭获得水和卫生服务的机会，同时使提供者能够收回成本。将经验模型应用于菲律宾宿务市供水服务的条件评估调查数据。采用较低的一次性接驳费并根据财富实行差异化收费的定价政策使贫困家庭获得的供水服务比基本定价政策增加了 3 至 9 倍。结果证明，价格歧视技术可以成为实现重要服务更大覆盖范围和财务偿付能力的重要工具。
Pricing policies can serve as a low-cost and effective tool for increasing access to water and sanitation services among poor households while allowing the provider to recover costs. An empirical model is applied to contingent-valuation survey data for water services in Cebu, Philippines. Pricing policies that utilizes a low one-time connection fee and differentiates tariffs based on wealth results in a 3 to 9-fold increase in water services access by poor households over the base pricing policy. The results provide evidence that price-discrimination techniques can be important tools toward achieving greater coverage and financial solvency of important services.
