| dc.description.abstract | The basic objective of healthcare systems is to meet a country’s health needs in the
most equitable and efficient manner, while remaining financially sustainable. Each
country, given the historical evolution of its healthcare system, adopts different strategies
to achieve these goals. The financing of healthcare through public and/or private channels is
one important component of this strategy, as it has a significant bearing on the
way healthcare is delivered and also has implications for the health policy goals of
equity, efficiency and sustainability. Understanding what determines these expenditures
is important from the viewpoint of health policy. This paper examines the relationship
between income and public and private healthcare expenditures. | |
