The main aim of this study is to understand better the factors that influence the health care demand decisions of Nigerian households. The achievement of this objective involves the estimation of the parameters of the demand for health care services in order to understand the nature of health care choices that Nigerian households make under the present depressed economy. These demand parameter estimates are considered valuable inputs into health care policy. Yet, to date, there is neither sufficient information on the factors that shape households' utilization of health care services nor is there sufficient information on the relative importance of health care alternatives available to them. This is the knowledge gap this study helps to fill. Due to the dearth of data on the subject and the costs of collecting such data for the whole country, this study has been limited to a particular geographical area - Nsukka local government. 2015-05-13T14:16:49Z 2015-05-13T14:16:49Z 2000 Master Thesis Masters MSocSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/12788 eng application/pdf School of Economics Faculty of Commerce University of Cape Town |
