Abstract:
This thesis examines the structure and flow of public funding between the public and private sectors in the South African health system and the consequences thereof for the achievement of equity. The conceptual framework used to undertake the analysis derives from Richard Titmuss’ core theoretical framework, the Social Division of Welfare. The application of the Social Division of Welfare applied to the South African health care context demonstrates how state resources end up benefitting the non-poor and, as a result, reproduce inequality.

Abstract:
Similar to the manufacturing sector, process improvement gains much attention in health care sector. Measuring process quality is one of the most important components of process improvement and numerous healthcare quality indicator models are developed to achieve this aim. Existing quality models focus on some specific diseases, clinics or clinical areas. Although they contain structure, process, or output type measures, there is no model which measures the quality of health care processes comprehensively. As a result, hospitals cannot compare quality of processes internally and externally. To

Background: Good quality health care can improve individual and population health. This study aimed to assess the receipt of effective health care interventions by middle aged and older people with common chronic diseases and health problems. Methods: 119 quality indicators were reviewed by an expert panel. Approved indicators were developed into a structured questionnaire for the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing (ELSA). 8,688 participants aged 50 years and over were interviewed in 2004-5 in England, of whom 4,419 reported diagnoses of one or more of 14 study conditions.

Organizational threat as an environmental factor affecting the level of slack is measured by the level of competition and regulation. Organizational slac
