Drivers of outpatient care costs incurred by Kenyan households - P4H Network

Drivers of outpatient care costs incurred by Kenyan households

An estimated 1.48 million people in Kenya are pushed into poverty every year because of out-of-pocket (OOP) and outpatient health expenses.  Kenyans from poor households are the most vulnerable and experience economic hardship each time an OOP payment is necessary.  In this study, the researchers identify the factors associated with outpatient expenses incurred by households in Kenya.
