Abstract:

Public private partnership is known as a model used in various sectors and projects today. From this point of view, the aim of the study is to subject the studies published in YOKTEZ and Dergipark databases on public-private partnership in the health sector in Turkey to the bibliometric analysis method and to draw a comprehensive framework in this direction. Publications on the public-private partnership model in the health sector in Turkey, which were published between 2010-2020 using the keywords "public private partnership in the health sector, public private cooperation in the health sector, city hospital and city hospitals" from the relevant databases, are included in the analysis, studies that use city hospitals as data collection sites for different research topics are excluded. As a result of the review, a total of 20 master's theses within the scope of the study are analyzed on the YOKTEZ database, and a total of 25 articles on the Dergipark database. According to the study findings, in the last ten years, the most thesis work is done in 2019; in the articles, it is determined that the number of articles written in the last three years constituted 60% of the total articles. It is foreseen that in the relatively new public-private partnership practices in Turkey academic studies would provide significant support to increase and intensify the experience and expert opinions, and various suggestions are made in this direction.
