Better Health Systems for India's Poor : Findings, Analysis, and Options
This report focuses on four areas of the
health system in which reforms, and innovations would make
the most difference to the future of the Indian health
system: oversight, public health service delivery,
ambulatory curative care, and inpatient care (together with
health insurance). Part 1 of the report contains four
chapters that discuss current conditions, and policy
options. Part 2 presents the theory, and evidence to support
the policy choices. The general reader may be most
interested in the overview chapter, and in the highlights
found at the beginning of each of the chapters in part 2.
These highlights outline the empirical findings, and the
main policy challenges discussed in the chapter. The report
does not set out to prescribe detailed answers for
India's future health system. It does however, have a
goal: to support informed debate, and consensus building,
and to help shape a health system that continually strives
to be more effective, equitable, efficient, and accountable
to the Indian people, and particularly to the poor.
