SUMMARY

Abstract: The background note deals with trade in health services that can be a source of revenue for developing countries with a strong health care sector. However, trade with health services also demonstrates the extremely vulnerable position of poorer, especially least developed countries, which on the one hand suffer from a "brain drain" and on the other do not have access to advanced technologies. Direct action by the international communityis required to prevent further erosion of these countries' capacity in health and other services sectors
