It outlines the scale of the problem, examines key drivers including heavy reliance on external funding and inefficient resource use and assesses viable policy options to mobilize domestic resources and improve their efficient utilization to advance progress toward Universal Health Coverage (UHC).

Geographic isolation and seasonal mobility disrupt continuity of primary health care and limit regular contact with health facilities, while low health literacy, language barriers, and deeply rooted cultural norms influence care-seeking behaviors, particularly for reproductive, maternal, newborn, child, and nutrition (RMNCH-N) services(1,2). These challenges are further compounded by recurrent crises such as flooding and disease outbreaks, as well as chronic shortages of supplies, staffing gaps, and inadequate infrastructure at frontline health posts(3). Collectively, these factors contribute to low utilization of RMNCH-N services and widen equity gaps within the national health system(3).

Given that both conditions are chronic, the impact of each condition over time on the other needs to be well understood. This project aims to examine how each condition affects the course and outcome of the other over a six-month follow-up period.
