[et al]. 330 $a"Markets for health-related goods and services have spread rapidly in many low and middle-income countries. This has substantially increased the availability of health-related goods and services, but it has created problems with safety, efficacy and cost. Making Health Markets Work addresses the challenge of improving health markets so that they better meet the needs of the poor.This book gathers together for the first time information about these little understood yet pervasive systems and offers evidence-based recommendations for policy-makers and private and public sector health managers. It presents a new way of understanding highly marketized health systems, applies this understanding to an analysis of health markets in countries across Asia and Africa and identifies some of the major new developments for making these markets perform better in meeting the needs of the poor"--Provided by publisher. 410 0$aPathways to Sustainability 606 $aMedical care$zAfrica 606 $aMedical care$zAsia 606 $aHealth care reform$zAfrica 606 $aHealth care reform$zAsia 606 $aHealth services accessibility$zAfrica 606 $aHealth services accessibility$zAsia 615 0$aMedical care 615 0$aMedical care 615 0$aHealth care reform 615 0$aHealth care reform 615 0$aHealth services accessibility 615 0$aHealth services accessibility 676 $a362.1/042 701 $aBloom$b Gerald$0122791 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910825025803321 996 $aTransforming health markets in Asia and Africa$94076617 997 $aUNINA
