Description
The governance of public health, health care and medical research is among the most strategically important aspects of public policy- and one of the most challenging because of the huge potential for corruption. It is important to identify structural weaknesses in the current governance of the health sector. These weaknesses often constitute incentives to various kinds of corruption, legal or not, that betray the fundamental objectives of health care, public policy and medical science.
