Analysis of Health Care Markets (I11) Health Health: Government Policy, Regulation, Public Health (I18) OECD Health Care
This paper investigates the effects of different health systems on cost efficiency in inpatient health care among the OECD countries. The results indicate that public contract systems are more efficient and that public integrated systems are less efficient than public reimbursement systems.
