摘要

摘要：本文论述了印度喀拉拉邦不断升级的医疗保健服务私有化问题。喀拉拉邦的公共医疗保健系统因其提供高质量和负担得起的医疗保健服务的值得称赞的战略而一直备受赞誉，但最近的发展却见证了大型商业多专科医院的出现，以及私人保险融入公共医疗保健部门，将医疗保健转变为一个有利可图的行业。这种情况凸显了医疗保健部门的公平性、可及性和可负担性的重要性。政府必须进行实质性干预，以遏制私营实体越来越多地参与医疗保健服务。

Balancing Health-care Privatization in Kerala: The Imperative of Public Sector Intervention.

Summary: This article addresses the escalating privatization of health-care services in Kerala, an Indian state. While Kerala's public health-care system has been consistently lauded for its commendable strategy of providing high-quality and affordable health care, recent developments have seen the emergence of large commercial multispecialty hospitals and the integration of private insurance into the public health sector, transforming health care into a profitable industry. This situation underscores the significance of equity, accessibility, and affordability in the health-care sector. Substantial government intervention becomes imperative to curb the increasing involvement of private entities in health-care services.
