This includes rest, disease prevention and management, and lifestyle enhancements. Medical tourism has two components: inbound and outbound, with an estimated global industry size of $100 billion and a market growth rate of 10-20% per annum. In East Africa, research evidence suggests that an addressable market size of more than $175 million could be generated from medical tourism alone. Ethiopia has significant competitive advantages to become one of Africa’s most preferred and leading medical tourism destinations within the next 5-10 years. 2024-01-01T00:00:00Z http://repository.iphce.org/xmlui/handle/123456789/5395 HSTQ Health sector transformation in quality, Version 1 Ministry of Health The huge investment on health infrastructure construction and health workforce development for theP a g e | 1 expansion of primary and secondary health care unit in the last 20 years has been a huge success for Ethiopia. However, the wide disparities of equity and quality of health care delivery across and within regions have been worrisome for the ministry. Hence quality and equity are pillars and cornerstones of the transformation agenda in the strategic plan (HSTP 2016 to 2020). 2016-01-01T00:00:00Z http://repository.iphce.org/xmlui/handle/123456789/5389 UHC high level forum 2025 - National health compact Ministry of Health Ethiopia’s official policy remains to achieve Universal Health Coverage (UHC) by 2030, targeting an 80% UHC index. This ambition is rooted in the Health Sector Transformation Plan II (HSTP II, 2020/21–2024/25), the Health Care Financing Strategy 2022–2031, and the National Health Equity Strategic Plan, all of which position primary health care (PHC) as the foundation for equitable service delivery and financial protection. 2025-12-01T00:00:00Z http://repository.iphce.org/xmlui/handle/123456789/5226 Health management information system (HMIS)/monitoring and evaluation (M&E) Ministry of Health The health management information system/Monitoring and evaluation (HMIS/M&E) strategy fits within the objectives and priorities set by the Health Sector Development Program’s (HSDPIII) strategic plan. The HSDPIII strategic plan itself responds to the objectives and priorities of national organizations, of regional, woreda, and kebele decentralized authorities, to the health needs of the Ethiopian population, and to international agreements. Similarly, the HMIS/M&E strategy must take account of these national, local, and international requirements, as well as those of the health sector itself. 2008-01-01T00:00:00Z
