dc.description.abstractReduced reporting and responsiveness to illness by poorer mothers is common in many countries, and can be linked to lower levels of health awareness among the poor, combined with less education and limited access to healthcare services. Based on three surveys, changes in health services over 10 years can be assessed, measuring access to, and utilization of health services. The surveys also permit examination of patterns of maternal and child healthcare use. For illnesses in children that were thought serious enough to require care, cost is far more important a reason for non-use. Inadequate provision of free medicines is a related factor.en
