This volume compiles empirical health-policy research from South Asia, aiming to inform and support health-system reform. It highlights three cross-cutting themes: the equity of public health spending, the role of the private sector in health service delivery, and how consumers (households) influence health service provision. The book argues that solid, local health policy research is key to improving governance, designing better financing mechanisms, and strengthening accountability in South Asian health systems.
