Abstract

The provision of government-funded public health services in India is grossly inadequate and 48.2% of "total health expenditure" for India is paid "out of pocket" [1]. When the total health expenditure in a household exceeds 10% of the annual income, it is considered catastrophic health expenditure (CHE) [2].

期刊介绍： The Indian Journal of Medical Ethics (formerly Issues in Medical Ethics) is a platform for discussion on health care ethics with special reference to the problems of developing countries like India. It hopes to involve all cadres of, and beneficiaries from, this system, and strengthen the hands of those with ethical values and concern for the under-privileged. The journal is owned and published by the Forum for Medical Ethics Society, a not-for-profit, voluntary organisation. The FMES was born out of an effort by a group of concerned doctors to focus attention on the need for ethical norms and practices in health care.
