Determinants of community-based health insurance implementation in west Gojjam zone, Northwest Ethiopia: a community based cross sectional study design

CBHI awareness, family health status, community solidarity, quality of service of health institutions, and wealth were major factors that most determine the household decisions to enroll in the system. Therefore, in-depth and sustainable awareness creation programs on the scheme; stratified premium- based on economic status of households; incorporation of social capital factors, particularly building community solidarity in the scheme implementation are vital to enhance sustainable enrollment. As perceived family health status and the existence of chronic disease were also found significant determinants of enrollment, the Government might have to look for options to make the scheme mandatory.
