About the Book: Economics of Health Sector Reforms In India Health Sector Reforms are the part of the policy of the Government of India adopted in early nineties in the form of economic liberalization. The economic reforms, which were adopted during this era, are the root cause of Health Sector Reforms.

Dwindling foreign reserves, negative growth of exports, soaring inflation, culmination of fiscal profligacy during 1980s, high cost import substitution policies coupled with a balance of payments crises set off by the Gulf war opened the way for an International Monetary Fund (IMF) programme that led to the acceptance of a major reform initiative.
