In this sense, the experience of a public-private partnership (PPP) in the area of purchasing dialysis services is an excellent example of using the resources available to both sectors to achieve synergy and territorial health justice in terms of delivering better quality healthcare. Our aim in this article is to answer a number of theoretical and empirical questions using a qualitative method based on the case study of the prefecture of Fez: the state of play, strengths, weaknesses and contributions, making it possible to highlight the constraints in the field and to grasp the essential trends and developments. The results of our research have shown the significant benefits of PPP and the very remarkable qualitative improvements in patient health in this area. But they also suggest that we need to take account of the importance of prior training for the players involved, which will strengthen their role in this process.   Keywords: public-private partnership, service purchase, end-stage chronic renal disease, dialysis.
