The correct answer is Option 2: Private sector "In recent times, while the public health sector has not been so successful in delivering the goods private sector has grown by leaps and bounds. A study reports that more than 70 per cent of the hospitals in India are run by the private sector. They control nearly two-fifth of the beds available in the hospitals. Nearly 60 per cent of dispensaries are run by the same private sector. They provide healthcare for 80 per cent of out-patients and 46 per cent of in-patients." |
