dc.description.abstractResearching how public–private engagements may promote universal access to safe obstetric care including caesarean delivery is essential. The aim of this research was to document the utilisation of private general practitioners (GPs) contracted to provide caesarean delivery services in five rural district hospitals in the Western Cape, the profile and outcomes of caesarean deliveries. We also describe stakeholder experiences of these arrangements in order to inform potential models of public–private contracting for obstetric services.en_US
