Getting Health Reform Right [PDF ebook] 
A Guide to Improving Performance and Equity

This book provides a multi-disciplinary framework for developing and analyzing health sector reforms, based on the authors’ extensive international experience. It offers practical guidance – useful to policymakers, consultants, academics, and students alike – and stresses the need to take account of each country’s economic, administrative, and political circumstances. The authors explain how to design effective government interventions in five areas – financing, payment, organization, regulation, and behavior – to improve the performance and equity of health systems around the world.
