Description:

This edition focuses on the role of the private sector, a part of the health system that has not previously been accorded extensive coverage in the SAHR. The contrast between the public and private sectors remains stark in many facets and the deepening inequity is cause for profound concern. The significance of the private sector cannot be underestimated both with regard to its potential contribution to the health and well-being of this country’s people, as well as its role in drawing resources (financial and human) from the public sector. [from foreword] Chapter 6 provides an overview of health information systens in the private health sector from a legilateive and operational perspective. Chapter 9 discusses the HRH situation, and Chapter 10 covers public-private partnerships.
