dc.description.abstract | Public health care in much of Africa is underfunded. There is a shortage of health care workers, and most doctors prefer to work in private practice. This fifteen-minute audio, ‘Public Healthcare Financing’ examines the lack of public health care financing in Africa in the context of health personnel shortages, poor working conditions, lack of provision of medicine for tuberculosis and AIDS, and poor access to care for patients (long queues, poor facilities, lack of equipment). The impact of the global economic crisis and neo-liberal government policies are also taken into account. | en |
