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.
