The Universal Declaration of Human Rights proclaims that "everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself and of his family." The guarantee of good health for its people is therefore every government's aspiration. Public-private partnerships (PPP) in health offer effective and sustainable solutions where the private sector and government can work together to bring long-term benefits to the people.
This publication looks at hospital management as an important component of well-rounded health-care systems. Through PPPs in hospital management, people will have increased access to effective, affordable, and compassionate health care services.
