Abstract

Health care resources are unevenly distributed: 15% of the world's population utilise 87%. Physician numbers vary dramatically from one region to another, as does disease distribution and the age of the population. All this impacts both what can be delivered and what is appropriate to a region. Primary prevention is usually effective and much cheaper than treatment or rehabilitation. Alternative health care models are discussed.
