Hospital use in the Netherlands is examined in a cross-section analysis of 1969 and 1971 data for 120 service regions. Elasticities of admissions with respect to bed supply and supply of general practitioners are calculated, and the substitutability of first level care (by general practitioners) for hospital care is considered. Substitution effects found indicate that the Dutch government's plan to reduce the ratio of hospital beds to population is feasible.
通过对1969年和1971年120个服务区域数据的横断面分析,研究了荷兰的医院使用情况。计算了住院人数相对于床位供应和全科医生供应的弹性,并考虑了一级医疗(由全科医生提供)对医院医疗的可替代性。所发现的替代效应表明,荷兰政府降低病床与人口比例的计划是可行的。
