Abstract: This article analyzes the context and the individual strategies which prevailed in the emergence of a private hospital sector in Algeria. It reveals that the development of the private clinics in Algeria took place in a constrained macroeconomic context and in a dysfunctional health system that have interacted with expectations and individual behaviors of the founders of these clinics. These founders have financial motivations but also objectives of professional autonomy. They combine various strategies in order to increase the number of patients, in particular the establishment of formal and informal networks.
