ABSTRACT
Objective:To obtain the health production efficiency performance and its changing trend of China's health system in recent years by adopting international comparison,and to provide policy recommendations to improve health production efficiency.Methods:It described the relative efficiency of health system in China by reporting the international ranking of health inputs and outputs indicators.It employed total health expenditure per capita as input indicator and health outcomes as output indicators to construct frontier health production function,China's health production function and marginal health production function based on data envelopment analysis and production function method.Results:In the past decade,compared to efficient countries with similar health development level,the efficiency performance of China's health system was between 65％ and 73％.With the increasing trend of health investment,China's marginal health output had been declined and tended to be gentle.Conclusion:The current health production efficiency in China was relatively high.However,how to improve the efficiency and marginal health output was the focus of future health system reform under the background of rapid growth of total health expenditure.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To make full use of existing variables set,study on the dynamic connection between economic growth,health input and investment benefits.Methods:Using Factor Augmented VAR(FAVAR) to draw common factors and perform VAR estimation with the variables sets.Results:The impact of economic growth on health output had two sides.Increasing health input would significantly stimulate health output and economic growth.The increase of health level would promote economic growth in short time and hamper in the long run.Conclusion:The government should increase health input and consider the health loss brought by economic growth.It should prevent the not rich but old risk with the pursuit of health benefit.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To study the influence of regional population and health input on public hospital operation by empirical analysis.Methods:Taking Chifeng Municipal Hospital and Xilingol League Hospital as samples and applies contrastive analysis to this essay.Results:Chifeng Municipal Hospital had 4 times of patients and 2 times of total health input than Xilingol League Hospital.Chifeng Municipal Hospital could better receive the fund for general hospital operation and had little reliability on the fiscal.Conclusion:The public hospitals located in low population density area could not adopt the same medical reform policies as other hospitals in different areas.It needed to give support for medical insurance payment and price adjustment,especially for fiscal compensation.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To support the distribution of health resources in China better. Methods: According to the related data of resident health, health resources and marketing index in China from 2005 to 2010, related conclusion was given by using stochastic frontier analysis and fixed effect panel analysis method to establish the change trend of technical efficiency in different provinces and cities. Results and Conclusion: (1) The distribution of technical efficiency in different provinces and cities are asymmetric and generally low;(2)there are obvious differences of technical efficiency among different areas;(3)government input in medical and health field should be focused on central and western areas.
