In India, health services are provided by the government through publicly financed and managed curative and preventive health services from the primary to the tertiary level. These services, accounting for about 18 percent of the overall health spending and 0.9 percent of the GDP, are provided free of cost to the patients. A fee-levying private sector that plays a dominant role in the provision of individual curative care through ambulatory services coexists with public health care. It accounts for about 82 percent of the overall health expenditure and 4.2 percent of the GDP.
