Abstract: In this paper the benefit incidence of public health care subsidies in eleven Asian territories, including India, Indonesia and two provinces of China is examined. The use of concentration indices and a high degree of consistency in the application of methods provide results that, unlike much of the existing evidence, are comparable across countries.[Working Paper No.3]
