Frost Michael R. Reich ACCESS How do good health technologies get to poor people in poor countries Many people in developing countries lack access to health technologies even basic ones. Why do these problems in access persist What can be done to improve access to good health technologies especially for poor people in poor countries This book answers those questions by developing a comprehensive analytical framework for access and examining six case studies. Access to health technologies in poor countries is shaped by social economic political and cultural processes. To understand those processes the authors develop an analytic framework based on four A s Architecture Availability Affordability and Adoption. The book applies this approach to explain why some health technologies achieved more access than others. The technologies include praziquantel for the treatment of schistosomiasis hepatitis B vaccine malaria rapid diagnostic tests vaccine vial monitors for temperature exposure the Norplant implant contraceptive and female condoms. The book is based on research studies commissioned by the Bill Melinda Gates Foundation. The delivery of health care to the poor often fails on the last lap. Whilst more fortunate individuals and families have access to life saving technologies and health improving services the poor often have to do without essential health care. The case studies in this book provide a systematic analysis of the dimensions distribution and determinants of inequitable access to health care and a logical framework for devising feasible solutions to improving access for the poor.
