16. Moving Forward………….  Need to expand and strengthen data collection on the private sector  Time to update data and continue updating it over time  Private sector data should be integrated into it all MOH policy and planning  Participatory processes should become common practice for all policy and planning in all countries  Capacity development for trust building and partnership between public and private sector is crucial  Keep the dialogue going long after analysis is completed
