A qualitative study of the government’s engagement of the private health sector in the delivery of Ghana’s COVID-19 emergency response
There is a need for policymakers to put in place an appropriate policy framework that will help in organising, engaging and collaborating with private health entities. The gaps identified and lessons learnt from implementing the pandemic response should be addressed as a matter of urgency to improve the readiness of Ghana's health system for future health emergencies.
