In the private sector, healthcare facilities are owned and run by for-profit companies and non-profit or charitable organizations.
In the earlier era, the high custom duties imposed by the government on imported medical equipment was a big deterrent to set up private hospitals offering specialised medical care using state of the art equipment, usually imported from abroad. As a result, there were very few privately run large hospitals but there were many small private practitioners who provided primary and secondary care.
The low level of medical insurance was another major problem faced by the private hospitals â “ not having insurance meant that the patients had to pay for the treatment from their own pockets and not everyone could afford the high costs of private healthcare.
