informal health care systems  

Definition

  • The concept of hidden or informal health care lacks a commonly understood definition. For purposes of this entry, it is defined as care given or received outside the formal health care system or as those dimensions of health care existing within both formal and informal systems of care that are hidden from casual observation. [Source: Encyclopedia of Gender and Society; Health Care Systems, Hidden/Informal]
