Decentralizing Health Services A Global Perspective Krishna Regmi,
editor Current economic, demographic, and environmental shifts are
presenting major challenges to health care systems around the
world. In response, decentralization--the transfer of control from
central to local authorities--is emerging as a successful means of
meeting these challenges and reducing inequities of care. But as
with health care itself, one size does not fit all, and care
systems must be responsive to global reality as well as local
demand. Decentralizing Health Services explores a variety of
applications of decentralization to health care delivery in both
the developing and developed worlds. Outfitted with principles,
blueprints, and examples, this ambitious text clearly sets out the
potential role of decentralized care as a major player in public
health. Its models of service delivery illustrate care that is
effective, inclusive, flexible, and in tune with the current era of
preventive and evidence-based healthcare . Contributors point out
opportunities, caveats, and controversies as they: Clarify the
relationships among decentralization, politics, and policy
Differentiate between political, fiscal, and administrative
decentralization in health care systems Consider public/private
partnerships in health systems Explain how the effects of
decentralization can be evaluated. Present the newest data on the
health outcomes of decentralization Explore some challenges and
global issues of health systems in the 21st century And each
chapter features learning goals, discussion questions, activities,
and recommendations for further reading Heralding changes poised to
revolutionize care, Decentralizing Health Services will broaden the
horizons of researchers and administrators in health services,
health economics, and health policy
