摘要
Outsourcing and privatization of healthcare services are analyzed from management and economics perspectives, examining four types of outsourcing from the transaction costs theory: centres, clinical services, diagnostic-therapeutic support services, and ancillary services. Potential effects of outsourcing are analysed, addressing the advantages and risks, and putting it into the context of the Spanish NHS. Some final remarks are made regarding policy and research agenda.
