Beschreibung
Improving health is a key concern of all societies, a crucial aspect for
individuals but at the same time, it can contribute to higher economic growth and welfare.
Thus health care has always been a complicated policy issue and cannot be separated from other
issues that impinge on health such as growth, inequality, poverty etc. With a special reference to
the Republic of Armenia, the book discusses the problem of achieving and sustaining redistributive
health care in the context of inequality and low incomes and presents the pro-poor aspects of health
policies in most important aspects.
