Abstract
⺠Universal coverage of the informal sector in Cambodia and other developing countries is constrained by fragmentation. ⺠The structure, third-party status and institutional capacity for a uniform national SHP agency are the key challenges. ⺠Lessons learned: expand the fiscal space for health, first protect the poor, and work according to the national context. ⺠Research in Cambodia in 2011-12 showed extensive coverage of the poor created the foundation for a national SHP agency.
