"Since health care financing is becoming the central issue for national and international agencies, WHO is widening its collaboration with all interested partners in financing health services to make them more accessible, affordable and effective. For example, WHO collaborates with the World Bank, Asian Development Bank, UN partners such as UNDP and UNICEF and donor countries such Australia, Japan and Luxembourg to assist the ongoing health care financing reform and introduce innovative financing approaches such as community financing and social health insurance in Cambodia, China, Lao PDR, Micronesia, Mongolia, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, Samoa and Viet Nam."
