Public-private partnerships are increasingly advocated to alleviate
deficiencies in the public health system as well as to reduce
economic stress on those who seek services from an expensive,
burgeoning and unregulated private health sector. Focusing on
India, this book examines how the private sector in developing
countries is tapped to deliver health care services to poor and
under-served sections of society through collaborative arrangements
with the government. Having emerged as a key reform initiative,
aspects of public-private partnership are examined such as the
genesis of private sector partnerships, the ways in which the
private sector is encouraged to deliver public health services, and
the models and formats that make such partnerships possible. Based
on in-depth case studies from different states of India and drawing
on experiences in other countries, the authors analyse challenges,
opportunities and benefits of implementing public-private
partnerships and explore whether partnership with the private
sector can be designed to deliver health care services to the poor
as well as the consequences for beneficiaries. This book will be of
interest to scholars of public policy and development
administration, health policy and development economics as well as
South Asian Studies.
