This book brings to light startling revelations about the healthcare situation among the poor in India. It reveals that out-of-pocket expenditure, as a percentage of private expenditure on healthcare in India, is one of the highest in the world, making it very burdensome for India’s poor, who are at the mercy of an inadequate public healthcare system and an exorbitant private healthcare system. The fallout of the prevailing healthcare system for the poor man in India is debilitating debt. To understand these issues and give insights into remedial measures, including private-public partnerships and “destitute-friendly” health insurance for the poor, Ratnaja Gogula, in this edited book, captures India’s healthcare and the issues and challenges of both the systems, and health insurance issues for the poor.
