Comparative performance of private and public healthcare systems in low- and middle-income countries: a systematic review.
PLoS Med. 2012; (6): e1001244
Private sector healthcare delivery in low- and middle-income countries is sometimes argued to be more efficient, accountable, and sustainable than public sector delivery. Conversely, the public sector is often regarded as providing more equitable and evidence-based care. We performed a systematic review of research studies investigating the performance of private and public sector delivery in low- and middle-income countries.
