Description
This book analyzes Eritrea's health care policy and strategy, and examines the role of the state and the market in a dual economy where modern and traditional medical systems coexist side by side. The book further demonstrates a conceptual framework through which developing countries manage their health care policies within three governance systems: Markets, Hierarchies, and Networks. The book has an extensive coverage of health care policies and strategies of developing countries. In the introduction part the book describes the background of the study, the research problem on perspective, the research questions, relevance and scope of the study. In the first six chapters the book examines the role of the state and the market in health care provision and financing, reviews the experience of Sub_Saharan African countries. The remaining ten chapters analyze Eritrea's health care policy and strategy, health care provision and financing systems, the distribution of health care personnel and facilities and their implication for equity, traditional risk sharing arrangements and informal social insurance and the complementarity of traditional medical practice to modern health care system.
