Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - COVID-19 puts emerging market health resilience in spotlight

Publicação: Zurich : Swiss Re Institute, 2020Descrição física: 2 p.Série: (Economic insights ; 22)Notas: Sumario: The COVID-19 experience has exposed emerging markets' enduring challenge of insufficient health infrastructure. Public health spend undershoots the World Health Organization's (WHO) target of 5% of GDP, while out-of-pocket expenditure represents more than 40% of all healthcare spending, leaving households vulnerable to financial stress. Insurance can play a central role in alleviating this stress and help narrow the emerging market health protection gap of around USD 420 billion.Materia / lugar / evento: COVID-19 Pandemias Perspectivas económicas Mercado de seguros Perspectivas del seguro Mercados emergentes Salud pública Otros autores: Wang, Viola
