To estimate trends in the inequalities in the distribution of general practitioners in Sweden during the past fifteen years.
Relative inequality indicators. We plotted the Lorenz curves and calculated the Gini coefficients for the entire country during 1986, 1991, 1996 and 2001.
During the past 15 years in all a declining trend was noted in the inequalities in the geographical distribution of general practitioners in Sweden, with the lowest level in 1996.
The degree of inequality in the geographical distribution of general practitioners appeared rather stable during the period, although with some increase in the final year studied. Since equality is part of quality, policy makers in all levels--national, regional and local--should pay attention as to how human resources are distributed.
评估过去15年瑞典全科医生分布不平等情况的趋势。
采用相对不平等指标。我们绘制了洛伦兹曲线,并计算了1986年、1991年、1996年和2001年全国的基尼系数。
在过去15年里,瑞典全科医生地理分布的不平等总体呈下降趋势,1996年处于最低水平。
在此期间,全科医生地理分布的不平等程度似乎相当稳定,不过在研究的最后一年有所增加。由于公平是质量的一部分,国家、地区和地方各级的政策制定者都应关注人力资源的分配方式。
