Evidence on the distribution of health facilities, manpower, health expenditures and utilization rates shows that private practitioners are significant health care providers in many Asian countries. Limited information has been published on interactions between public and private providers despite their co-existence. Issues related to enforcement of regulations, human resources, patient referrals and disease notifications, are examined. © Oxford University Press Review paper nationallicence Health Policy and Planning Oxford University Press 10/4(1995-12), 333-349 0268-1080 10:4<333 1995 10 heapol https://doi.org/10.1093/heapol/10.4.333 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI 1 review-article jats NATIONALLICENCE 856 40 https://doi.org/10.1093/heapol/10.4.333 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI NATIONALLICENCE 100 1- ALJUNID SYED Health Economics and Financing Programme, Health Policy Unit, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, UK NATIONALLICENCE 773 0- Health Policy and Planning Oxford University Press 10/4(1995-12), 333-349 0268-1080 10:4<333 1995 10 heapol Metadata rights reserved CC BY-NC-4.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 nationallicence BK010053 XK010053 XK010000 NATIONALLICENCE NATIONALLICENCE NL-oxford
