From Parallel Provision to Health System Integration: Exploring the Trajectory and Contextual Drivers of the Healthcare Response for Refugees in Six Low‐ and Middle‐Income Countries

The International Journal of Health Planning and Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rising numbers of refugees, prolonged displacement and reduced funding have led to challenges in terms of how to address their healthcare needs, with different approaches taken, ranging from parallel mechanisms to arrangements that are integrated (to different extents) within the national health system. Increasingly, global frameworks call for
