| Summary: | This study was commissioned under the
private sector development research and analysis platform, a
partnership established in June 2015 between the Government
of Australia, represented by the Department of Foreign
Affairs and Trade (DFAT), and the International Finance
Corporation (IFC), a member of the World Bank Group, which
supports private sector growth and poverty reduction in the
Asia Pacific region. The partnership aims to find smarter
ways to encourage private investment into areas of impact
and growth within the private health sector to benefit
overall healthcare systems and delivery, and ultimately,
health outcomes for poor people. The private sector can also
influence the provision and financing of health services
through public private partnerships. The Australian
government and IFC recognize the need to further understand
the role of the private sector in priority health markets
within Asia and to identify opportunities to support private
sector projects, or private sector participation in public
sector projects. This study focuses on five countries -
Vietnam, Cambodia, Indonesia, Myanmar, and the Philippines.
This report summarizes the findings of a study aimed at
providing tools and analysis for the partnership to better
engage with the markets and their private sector players for
improved health outcomes. It explores the problems that
public health systems face, and the opportunities for the
private sector. For more publications on IFC Sustainability
