CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
Health to every nation is as important as the economy of the nation; this is because the health of every nation is her wealth. A healthy workforce would replicate in its output in its productivity, Nigeria being one of the developing nations cannot be an exception.
HIV/AIDS, maternal mortality, under-5 mortality, malaria, and tuberculosis have undermined development and impoverished West African developing countries such as Nigeria. Nonetheless, it has been enunciated that the pursuit of better health care system should not be a problem for an improved economy.The way a country runs its health care system is a key prerequisite to the health of its citizenry.Selection of an adequate and efficient method of health care cost from birth to death is essential if a country is set to achieve its national health objective of providing health for all.
A health care cost from birth to death system involves the means in which health costs are computed and analyzed. In fact, most health centers, hospitals or health research organizations in Nigeria place little or no emphasis on the cost of health care.An effective and efficient record keeping of health care cost from birth to death by hospitals and research centers would be of immense benefit both to the citizenry and her government.
The lack of proper documentation of health care cost from birth to death has been a major problem confronting our socio economic development and most importantly our health sector. Inadequate planning has been a re occurring decimal in our health sector.The in ability of government to structure a far reaching health policy for its citizenry has been as a result of lack of proper documentation of health care cost from birth to death
The following are the aims and objectives of this study
