ABSTRACT

This study aimed to evaluate inequalities in the geographical distribution of human and physical resources in the health sector of Kermanshah province, Islamic Republic of Iran. In a retrospective, cross-sectional study, data from the Statistical Centre of Iran were used to calculate inequality measures (Gini coefficient and index of dissimilarity) over the years 2005-11. The highest Gini coefficient for human resources was observed for pharmacists in 2005 (0.75) and the lowest for paramedics in 2010 and 2011 (0.10). The highest indices of dissimilarity were also for pharmacists in 2005 (29%) and paramedics in 2011 (3%). For physical resources, the highest and lowest Gini coefficients were for rehabilitation centres in 2010 (0.59) and health houses in 2011 (0.12) respectively. Generally, inequalities in the distribution of health care resources were lower at the end of the study period, although there was potential for more equitable distribution of pharmacists, specialists, health houses and beds.

ABSTRACT

لقد هدفت هذه الدراسه الى تقييم التفاوت القائم في التوزيع الجغرافي للموارد البشريه والماديه في القطاع الصحي في محافظة كرمنشاه بجمهوريه ايران الاسلاميه ففي دراسه استعاديه مقطعيه استخدمت بيانات من مركز الاحصاء في ايران لحساب مقاييس التفاوت ( معامل جيني ومنسب التباين ) على مدي السنوات 2005-2011 فلوحظ ان أعلى معامل جيني للموارد البشريه بالنسبه للصيادلة كان في عام 2005 (0.75)وادني معامل للمسعفين كان في عامي 2010 و 2011 (0.10). وكانت ااعلى مناسب للتباين للصيادلة كذلك في عام 2005 (29%)وللمسعفين في عام 2011 (3%)وبالنسبه للموارد الماديه كان أعلى وأدنى معامل جيني لمراكز التأهيل في عام 2010 (0.59)ولمساكن الصحه في عام 2011 (0.12)على التوالي وبصفة عامه فلقد لوحظ ان التفاوت في توزيع موارد الرعايه الصحيه أقل في نهايه فتره الدراسه على الرغم من أنه كانت هناك امكانيه لتوزيع الصيادلة والاختصاصيين ومساكن الصحه والاسره بطريقة أكثر انصاف

La présente étude visait à évaluer les inégalités dans la répartition géographique des ressources humaines et physiques du secteur de la santé de la province de Kermânchâh (République islamique d’Iran). Dans une étude rétrospective transversale, des données du centre iranien des statistiques ontété exploitées pour calculer des mesures d’inégalité (le coefficient de Gini et l’indice de dissimilitude) entre 2005 et 2011. Le coefficient de Gini le plus élevé pour les ressources humaines a été observé chez les pharmaciens en 2005 (0,75) et le plus faible chez les personnels paramédicaux en 2010 et 2011 (0,10). Les indices de dissimilitude les plus élevés concernaient aussi les pharmaciens en 2005 (29 %) et les personnels paramédicaux en 2011 (3 %). Pour les ressources physiques, les coefficients de Gini les plus élevés et les plus faibles concernaient les centres de réadaptation en 2010 (0,59) et les maisons de santé en 2011 (0,12), respectivement. De manière générale, les inégalités dans la répartition des ressources en soins de santé étaient plus faibles à la fin de la période de l’étude, même s’il existait un potentiel pour une répartition plus équitable des pharmaciens, des spécialistes, des maisons de santé et des lits.
