ABSTRACT
Objective:To analyze the supply efficiency and influencing factors of medical and health services in 31 provinces in China from 2011 to 2020, providing reference for rational allocation of medical and health resources and improving service efficiency.Methods:The data related to the input-output indicators of China′s medical and health services from 2011 to 2020 were collected from China Health Statistical Yearbook, China Statistical Yearbook and China Social Statistical Yearbook. Data envelopment analysis was used to calculate the static efficiency of China′s medical and health service supply, the Malmquist index method was used to analyze the dynamic efficiency of China′s medical and health service supply, and the Tobit model was used to analyze the factors affecting the efficiency. Results:In 2020, the comprehensive efficiency of medical and health service supply in 15 provinces (Tianjin, Shanghai, Zhejiang, etc.) was 1.000, and the scale benefit remained unchanged. The comprehensive efficiency in 16 provinces (Heilongjiang, Jilin, Inner Mongolia, etc.) was less than 1.000. Among them, 15 provinces showed a decreasing scale benefit, while 1 province showed an increasing scale benefit.From 2011 to 2020, the total factor production efficiency index of China′s healthcare service supply increased from 0.988 to 1.036. The factors affecting the efficiency included number of people with a college degree or above per 10 000 people, the utilization rate of hospital bed rate, population density, asset liability ratio, and average length of stay ( P<0.05). Conclusions:In recent years, the efficiency of healthcare service supply in China showed a growth trend featuring regional differences and multiple influencing factors. It is suggested to further narrow the regional differences of the efficiency, reasonable control the scale of medical institutions, optimize medical service technology and management levels, shorten the average transfer day and improve bed utilization to improve the overall efficiency of medical and health service supply.
ABSTRACT
With the continuous expansion of the domestic population flow,the medical and health services is-sues of migrant population are becoming more and more serious. Based on the three aspects of the demand,supply, and utilization of health services,this article explores and analyzes the utilization of health services for migrant popu-lation in Beijing in 2015 on the basis of behavioral models. The results showed that the prevalence of chronic diseases and the frequency of disease in migrant population are relatively low. The migrant population has low efficiency and overall evaluation of public health services. From the point of view of convenience and diversity of services,the sup-ply of public health services needs to be further improved. In terms of the active utilization of medical and health services,the proportion of respondents who did not participate in any medical insurance still have a large proportion, while the proportion of regular physical examination was lower. In terms of passive utilization,both outpatient and in-patients service use are low. Family income and medical insurance have influenced patients'choice of medical institu-tions to some extent. The health promotion strategy is proposed from the perspective of supply side and utilization.
