This study identified important lessons to align PFM systems and FMCHP. A realistic and evidence-informed budget and enforcement of contribution rules are critical to adequate and sustainable revenue generation. Clarity of roles for various FMCHP committees and use of clear resource allocation strategy would strengthen pooling and fund management. Enforcement of provider payment standards, regular auditing, and a stronger role for the parliament in budgetary processes are warranted.
