Book

This book presents a comprehensive policy framework for sustainable financing of Iran’s health system, based on a doctoral dissertation. It systematically analyzes current financing challenges, including revenue volatility, high out-of-pocket payments, and inefficiencies in resource allocation, and proposes evidence-based policy options tailored to Iran’s socio-economic conditions. The study uses a mixed methods approach that combines stakeholder interviews, comparative analysis with international models, and scenario-based financial modeling. The findings provide practical recommendations for policymakers, health economists, and researchers seeking to achieve universal health coverage and financial resilience in developing countries.
