This paper examines the capacity determination factors of medical services at a national level through the analysis of a mathematical model that maximizes social welfare, which consists of the consumption of private goods and the medical capacity provided by the society. A sensitivity analysis is conducted to investigate the impact of these factors on the medical capacity provided. Furthermore, a case example based on the data provided by the government is presented to discuss the results derived from the theoretical analysis. The results of the sensitivity analysis indicate that individual disposable income, the medical expenditure for each treatment, the level of premium payments, and substitution parameters have a positive impact on medical capacity, while the medical costs and preference parameter negatively affect medical capacity. The results of the correlation analysis based on the data of the case example are consistent with the findings of the theoretical analysis.
本文通过分析最大化社会福利的数学模型,研究了国家层面医疗服务能力的决定因素,该模型由私人商品消费和社会提供的医疗能力组成。本文进行了敏感性分析,以考察这些因素对医疗能力的影响。此外,本文还基于政府提供的数据,给出了一个案例,以讨论理论分析的结果。敏感性分析的结果表明,个人可支配收入、每次治疗的医疗支出、保费水平和替代参数对医疗能力具有正向影响,而医疗成本和偏好参数则对医疗能力具有负向影响。基于案例数据的相关性分析结果与理论分析结果一致。
