ABSTRACT
Objective To learn the present status of health resources in Beijing and analyze the scale and direction of the impacts of health resources inputs on health outputs. Methods To avoid spurious regression of time sequence, macro statistics of health indicators were collected from four districts, with co-integration test and error correction model used, to analyze the impacts of health resources inputs and health demands on residents′ health outputs. Results The indicators of the number of hospital beds per thousand people, government health expenditure and disposable income of residents had positive influence on health outputs, while the ratio of doctor and nurse, and the dependency ratio of population were the two negative impacts on health. But there was no significant difference between these two negative effect indicators. Conclusions Health improvement can be promoted by increased medical and health resources, but better balance of health resources allocation is imperative among regions. More nursing personnel should be trained in order to improve the efficiency of human resource for health. The government health expenditure should be improved so as to build continuous medical service system.
