The Kisumu Medical and Educational Trust (KMET) program focuses on family planning services and encourages providers to add these services to the normal range of consultations, commodity sales, and clinical care they already provide. The central question addressed in this study is whether it is possible to offer reproductive health services through a network of private sector, for-profit providers without exacerbating inequity in access to these services.. The study also looked at a pool of potential clients of KMET members to evaluate which wealth group benefits from the subsidy given to private providers through KMET. And finally, an analysis of actual KMET clients was used to better understand the program's success in providing quality reproductive health care. 2013-05-30T14:09:51Z 2013-05-30T14:09:51Z 2005-05 http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2005/05/5823943/kenya-reaching-poor-through-private-sector-network-model-expanding-access-reproductive-health-services http://hdl.handle.net/10986/13671 English en_US HNP Discussion Paper; CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Publications & Research :: Working Paper Publications & Research Africa Kenya
