This Health System Review provides an overview of the health system in Mongolia a country undergoing rapid economic growth and political changes. These changes can be seen in the rapidly changing picture of the health system as well. Chapter 1 introduces the country and its people and describes its transition from socialism to a market economy. Chapter 2 describes the governance and organization of the health system. Chapter 3 summarizes the financing of health care in Mongolia. Chapter 4 describes the physical and human resources of the health system. Chapter 5 describes the delivery of services. Chapter 6 describes the principal health reforms in the country. Chapter 7 provides an overall assessment of the health system. Chapter 8 presents an overall assessment of the Mongolian health system. It highlights key gains and achievements like the declining infant child and maternal mortality and high health insurance population coverage. However it also highlights the challenges that still linger including the need for the system to evolve from its Semashko model and implement reform in a transparent and accountable manner. The health system needs to be able to adapt to the changing needs of the population as NCDs become more pervasive and more problematic. The government is already aware of these issues. Many reforms already in process warrant careful monitoring over the next few years. (Excerpts)
