The Public Private Mix for Health

This book brings together an international group of distinguished researchers and practitioners in health economics and health services who are national experts on the funding and provision of health care. Despite the great differences in the structures and cultures of their national systems they identify common issues and expound the policy debate about healthcare reform. Providing radical insights, scepticism towards simple solutions and an international perspective on the inequity, inefficiency and expense of health care systems, The Public-Private Mix for Health is vital reading for healthcare managers, policy makers and shapers, academics and researchers in health, society, politics and international studies.
