Background of the Study

Government subsidies can play a pivotal role in supporting the sustainability of private hospitals, especially in developing economies where healthcare costs are high and public healthcare systems are often overstretched (Oluwaseun & Adeola, 2023). In Nigeria, private hospitals face numerous challenges, including high operating costs, limited revenue streams, and increased competition from public hospitals. In Jigawa State, the role of government subsidies in ensuring the financial sustainability of private hospitals has not been adequately explored.

Government subsidies can reduce the financial burden on private hospitals by providing financial relief for healthcare providers, allowing them to offer more affordable services to the public. The impact of these subsidies on hospital sustainability remains an under-explored area, particularly in the context of Jigawa State, where private hospitals play a crucial role in delivering healthcare services (Adamu & Akinyemi, 2024). This study will investigate the role of government subsidies in the financial sustainability of private hospitals in Jigawa State.

Statement of the Problem

Private hospitals in Jigawa State face significant financial challenges that affect their ability to provide affordable healthcare services and maintain long-term sustainability. While government subsidies could provide much-needed support, there is limited research on how these subsidies affect hospital operations and sustainability in the state.

This study aims to examine the effect of government subsidies on the financial sustainability of private hospitals in Jigawa State.

2. The financial challenges faced by private hospitals in Jigawa State are significantly mitigated by government subsidies.

3. Optimizing the allocation of government subsidies will enhance the financial sustainability of private hospitals in Jigawa State.
