Article Synopsis
- Iran aims to revise its health insurance benefit package (HIBP) to achieve universal health coverage (UHC) but has faced criticism for lack of accountability and transparency in the decision-making process.
- The High Council for Health Insurance (HCHI) led the revision from 2019-2021 using evidence-informed deliberative processes (EDPs), including a pilot project focused on multiple sclerosis (MS) that involved various stakeholders.
- The pilot project involved setting up advisory committees, establishing decision criteria, evaluating services, and is expected to enhance the legitimacy of decision-making, improve MS patient care, and expand access to essential health services without exceeding the budget.
