Abstract:
AID and the international health profession must put aside their past assumptions and what appears to be an inherent fear of change. They must recognize that private sector resources can serve the public interest in a variety of ways, not the least of which is to liberate scarce public funds for better care of the neediest. Future complex problems and needs will require that the simple answers of the past be replaced with an appreciation for the complexity of problems and an uncompromising demand for excellence.
