[Microinsurancefocus] New Report on Financial Inclusion Opportunities for Micro Health Insurance in Nepal

[Dr. Iddo Dror]

Dear colleagues,

The Micro Insurance Academy and Save the Children are pleased to 
announce a new report on Financial Inclusion Opportunities for Micro 
Health Insurance in Nepal.

This report is based on information collected in two districts of Nepal 
(Banke and Dhading) in early 2009 which includes a survey of 2,008 
households, 40 focus group discussions (with potential beneficiaries), 
in addition to 51 key informant interviews with healthcare providers.

With its 150 pages rich with tables and first-hand data, this is the 
first published study available on the viability of microinsurance that 
tackle holistically and in full detail the socioeconomic status of the 
target population, incidence of illness and health-seeking behavior, the 
cost of healthcare, and the willingness to pay for health insurance in 
Nepal. Read more here <http://www.microinsuranceacademy.org/node/826>(or 
in the attached 1-page overview).

Best wishes,

Iddo
