Willingness to join community-based health insurance and associated factors among households in Ethiopian: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Review in Cost effectiveness and resource allocation : C/E, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundIn Ethiopia, out-of-pocket medical expenses make up one-third of all medical expenses, which makes it difficult for households to obtain and utilize healthcare. One of the prepayment mechanisms that shield low-income households from unaffordable medical bills is the community-based health insurance (CBHI) program. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to estimate the pooled willingness to join Community-based Health Insurance schemes and its associated factors among households in Ethiopia.
methodsArticles were searched from PubMed, Google Scholar, Web of Science, Scopus, Science Direct, and Ethiopian Universities' repositories for grey literature. The study used the modified PRISMA guidelines for rewriting and reviewing the literature. The quality of studies was assessed using Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal tools. Data was extracted using Microsoft Excel and exported to STATA version 16 software for analysis. Cochran's Q statistic and I
resultWe included thirty studies to determine the pooled prevalence of willingness to join the CBHI scheme and its determinants. The pooled magnitude of households' willingness to join the CBHI scheme was 60.42% (95% CI: 51.45%, 69.38%). Old aged (AOR = 2.17, [95% CI: 1.37, 3.44], I2 = 82.33%), formal educational status(AOR = 2.74, [95% CI: 2.10, 3.56], I
conclusionThe pooled prevalence of willingness to join the CBHI scheme was low and below the national target of 80%. Age, family size, educational status, wealth status, illnesses in last three months, presence of chronic illnesses, affordability of the premium for the CBHI scheme, self-reported health status, Knowledge/awareness of the scheme, trust in the scheme and perceived quality of healthcare service were significantly determine the willingness to join the CBHI scheme. Health providers should provide detailed awareness creation through health education on the concepts and principles of the CBHI scheme.
