It highlights rising non-communicable disease burdens, stagnating neonatal and infant mortality, uneven distribution of skilled health workers, and major diagnostic and treatment gaps for hypertension and diabetes. The review analyzes spending trends, private insurance dynamics, out-of-pocket patterns, and hospital-centered government expenditure, then formulates policy suggestions to strengthen preventative care and chronic disease management.","Pub lic Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized  \nMo Bulabula, ka Bula Balavu  \nWISHING
