Cost of selected health institutions in the Central Region 1972-1973.
An account is given in the paper of a costing exercise conducted at four institutions in the Central Region, using 1972/1973 data. Attention is initially drawn to the conceptual and practical difficulties involved in the collection and interpretation of data. Detailed estimates for each institution-Cape Coast hospital, Saltpond hospital, Swedru health centre and Kissi health post are then presented. Finally a tentative suggestion for a supplementary statistical system covering institutional cost is broached.
