ABSTRACT

The concept of a public-private partnership [PPP] has been proposed as a potential model for providing education services besides public finance and public delivery. The present study was conducted to survey the current practices of Private-Public Partnership [PPP] in health education in Udaipur city, Rajasthan, India. A questionnaire survey was conducted among organizations involved exclusively and actively in health education in Udaipur city, Rajasthan, India. The pretested self designed structured questionnaire consisted of 21 items pertaining to the current practices of private-public partnership [PPP] in health education. Descriptive statistics were used to describe the data. On the basis of inclusion criteria, 50 personnel from 2 private dental colleges, 1 private medical college, 2 Non Government Organizations [NGOs] and 1 health museum were selected. Only 15 [30%] of participants agreed that they have a written reference policy that outlines the services they provide to the general public. Regarding the collection of health education materials available, majority 35 [70%] had printed books followed by audio visual [AV] materials [slides, videos, audio cassettes] [22 [44%]]. 35 [70%] of participants reported that they loan only pamphlets and broachers to the public. Thirty four [68%] of participants provide information about oral health. Only 23 [46%] of participants reported that their institution/organization undergo periodic evaluation. Results of this survey show that that most of the PPP were involved in delivering health education, mostly concentrated on general health. Only few of them were involved in oral health education. The role of PPP in health education is integral to the effort of promoting a healthier population. This effort continues the trend and broadens the scope of involvement for further studies
