A Public-Private Partnership Model for Enhancing Healthcare Delivery Through Coordinated Medical Product Distribution
Authors(4) :-Michael Aduojo Amuta, Muridzo Muonde, Ashiata Yetunde Mustapha, Akachukwu Obianuju Mbata Efficient healthcare delivery in developing and transitional economies is frequently impeded by fragmented medical product distribution systems, under-resourced logistics networks, and inconsistent policy enforcement. Public-private partnerships (PPPs) have emerged as transformative vehicles to address these systemic deficiencies by leveraging the strengths of government stewardship and private sector innovation. This paper proposes a Public-Private Partnership Model for Medical Product Distribution (PPP-MPD) to enhance the reliability, reach, and resilience of healthcare logistics. Anchored in a literature-driven approach, this study explores the evolution of PPPs in healthcare, evaluates the historical and contemporary inefficiencies in medical supply chains, and conceptualizes a multi-stakeholder framework for coordinated distribution. The model incorporates epidemiological priorities, market responsiveness, infrastructure gaps, and policy harmonization mechanisms to enable a data-informed, sustainable distribution ecosystem. The proposed PPP-MPD framework aims to align commercial objectives with public health imperatives, offering a strategic pathway to strengthen access to essential medical commodities in underserved regions. The paper concludes with recommendations for policy reform, cross-sectoral collaboration, and scalable pilot testing in diverse national contexts.
