Abstract: The political economy of health care services in India has various dimensions. Multiple systems, various types of ownership patterns and different kinds of delivery structures make up a complex plurality that makes the development of an organised system difficult. The health policy and planning framework has been provided by the central government. In concrete terms, the central government has pushed various national programs. Then there are the centre’s own programs of family planning and universal immunisation. Hence, the centre's intervention in the state’s domain of health care activities is an important feature that needs to be considered in any analysis of public health care services.
