A comprehensive assessment of Thailand’s LTC service provision over the past decade examining the extent of coverage, service quality, outcomes and impacts on people with dependency and their families
Palliative care in Thailand faces challenges in integrating public and private services, limited financing, and gaps in community and home-based care knowledge. This study reviews evidence, analyzes service models across sectors, and engages stakeholders to propose scalable, effective, and equitable palliative care frameworks tailored to local contexts.
This project develops an integrated System Dynamics and Agent-Based Modeling framework to analyze long-term challenges and policy options for strengthening Thailand’s health workforce under UHC. By combining 30 years of retrospective data with scenario-based policy experiments, the study aims to provide robust, evidence-informed tools that support sustainable decision-making at national and local levels.
A realist evaluation of palliative care service models in Thailand, exploring how contextual factors and underlying mechanisms shape scaling-up barriers and hinder effective coverage across diverse public and private care settings.
This study estimates the national and provincial Social Return on Investment (SROI) of Thailand’s NHSO-contracted coordinated intermediate care delivered through private physiotherapy clinics for four priority conditions (stroke, traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, fragility hip fracture) during 2023–2025, to inform benefit-package design, strategic purchasing, and equitable scale-up.
This project evaluates healthcare costs in the last stage of life among the Thai population, using national claim datasets. It measures service utilization, cost patterns, disease burden, and cost trajectories in the final 24 months of life to inform policy and improve end-of-life care efficiency and equity.
Thailand’s UHC system improves equity but still faces low effective coverage, access gaps, and hospital overcrowding. The Phase 3 evaluation of the “One ID Card” policy shows improved access through innovative units, with remaining challenges in data integration, decentralization oversight, and communication. Findings inform stronger primary care, governance, and system resilience.
A mixed-methods study that maps the current state of palliative care research in Thailand, analyzes systemic gaps and institutional research collaboration, and develops a prioritized national research agenda through a modified Delphi process to guide future policy and system improvement.
