More than 30% of population lives below the national poverty line. The share of out of pocket expenditure in the total health expenditure is 62 percent (Prasai et al 2006), and many of the poor people do not have right access to treatment during illness. Unequal distribution of health facilities continues to be a major public health problem in Nepal. Although there is an improved trend of mortality among infants and children (DHS 2006) but the sub national health indicators show considerable disparities across the country's geographical regions and social classes. 2012-12-28T20:00:03Z 2022-11-08T10:20:43Z 2012-12-28T20:00:03Z 2022-11-08T10:20:43Z 2009 Technical Report http://103.69.126.140:8080/handle/123456789/790 en_US application/pdf Nepal Health Research Council
