description Public private partnership is a developing trend in which services are delivered by the private sector, both non-profit and for profit organization, while the responsibility of the funding and additional necessities may be provided by the government. The PPP has made its entry to the health care sector since last two decades. The Public Private Partnership in health sector has made successful stories in India at the same time there are debates related to its accountability and transferability. The Indian government is now largely looking in to the PPP model to solve larger problems in health care delivery. This is because of the large number of population struggling for survival and basic health needs. The challenges in health sector leads to the PPP, where the public and private sector merges in a harmonized way to meet the demand of quality of health services. The area in which PPP now operates in health care includes private management in public health delivery, adoption of primary health care centers, clinical services, health insurance programmes, non-clinical services etc. The study throws light on the emergence of PPP in the Indian health sector and the various models where it is successfully implemented. The study focuses on the implications of partnership models and the benefits and limitations of them. The data is collected from thorough literature review of articles of journals, books, study reports, unpublished works and news papers. The study focuses on various PPP models operating across the country. The PPP models have lead to the delivery of accessible, reliable and better quality services to the poor. Efficient supervision and high quality managerial and budgetary support from the government can lead to implementation of successful partnerships which can ensure the modern health care to the deprived people.
