Resource Description:

Vietnam’s HIV/AIDS response is mainly financed by external sources, with 73% of spending on HIV funded by international donors for the period 2008-2010. As donor funding is expected to decline over the coming years, it is critical for the Government of Vietnam (GVN) to identify viable solutions for sustaining HIV/AIDS activities. The Decision No 1899/QD-TTg, dated October 16, 2013, of the Prime Minister to approve the Sustainable Financing Options Project for HIV/AIDS prevention and control for the period 2013-2020 has identified funding HIV/AIDS services through social health insurance (SHI) as one of the key strategies to ensure long term sustainability of HIV/AIDS treatment services. The Model to Estimate Health Insurance Liability for Treatment of HIV/AIDS in Vietnam provides financial forecasts on the amounts of funding needed from SHI and other sources for HIV/AIDS treatment.
