Health Policy, Inequity and Convergence in India
Published By: Madras School of Economics | Published Date: September, 01 , 2012The objective of this study is to put to test the development paradigm that this inequity will converge and adjustment period will be
lowered for equitable outcomes in health provided a fine tuning of health policy is carried out. The study makes use of information across twenty major states to analyze the process and speed of convergence by focusing on major determinant of health care. Our results indicate an
affirmative answer to the tested development paradigm. It further chalks out the possible central and state level policy strategy to shorten the
duration of convergence.
