title: Crucial questions for physiotherapy in Finland.
abstract: When planning for health services, questions of production and distribution as well as cost and quality are key issues for health planners and decision makers. The lack of available objective data often makes this work difficult. This paper presents recent efforts in Finland to improve the collection of information needed for planning in the field of physiotherapy.
