Studies conducted in Kenya indicate that Nyamira County is poorly ranked in healthcare provision. This indicates inefficient Public-Private-Partnerships.The main objective of this study was to analyse factors influencing performance of public-private partnerships in healthcare provision in Kenya, using the case study of Nyamira County guided by the following specific objectives; to establish the influence of governance structures on performance of Public-Private Partnerships in healthcare in Nyamira County; assess the influence of the regulatory framework on performance of PublicPrivate Partnerships in healthcare in Nyamira County; and analyse the influence of socio-cultural environment on performance of Public-Private Partnerships in healthcare in Nyamira County. The research was underpinned on the Team Development Model, Agency Theory, Stakeholders Theory and Relationalbureaucratic Theory. The descriptive research design was employed in the study. The population of the study was drawn from the 64 senior top managers of the partnering organizations in the area where the 32 health facilities are located. Questionnaires with five-point Likert scale supplemented with interviews were conducted to collect primary data. Multiple regression analysis with the aid of a computer programme, SPSS was used to establish the influenceof Public-Private Partnerships in healthcare provision in Nyamira County.The study findings established that governance systems had the highest positive influence to public private partnership on healthcare provision, followed by regulatory factors and socio-cultural factors respectively.
