Developing Health Accounts:Underpinning for Maharashtra State

The health system of a country is one of the major indicators of human development. Though, India has achieved significant success as regards the general growth rate over the last decades, her health system is still at cross roads. Though the government has taken great initiative to improve the public health facilities, much remains to be done. The major challenge in this area for the researchers and the policy makers is the assessment of the performance of health sector. In this background the present study has been undertaken to develop methodologically robust state level health account, to contribute to the institutionalisation of health accounts and generation of health accounts and generation of health accounts metrics for Maharashtra.
