Abstract

Health services research is taken to include all research intended to help operate or improve health services; it is concerned with problems in the organisation, staffing, financing, utilization, and evaluation of health services. This is in contrast to biomedical and clinical research which is concerned with the aetiology, diagnosis and treatment of disease.

The broad purpose of health services research is to produce knowledge that will contribute to improving the delivery of health care (Flook and Sanazaro, 1973).
