Analysis of the National Medical Care Utilization and Expenditure Survey for persons with positive out-of-pocket expenses for one or more ambulatory mental health visits indicates that demand for such visits is responsive to price, and considerably more so than demand for health visits. Income, education, and insurance coverage interact in predicting demand, and price elasticity varies across income groups.
对全国医疗保健利用和支出调查中,有一次或多次门诊心理健康就诊自付费用为正的人群的分析表明,此类就诊的需求对价格有反应,而且比对健康就诊的需求反应大得多。收入、教育程度和保险覆盖范围在预测需求方面相互作用,且价格弹性在不同收入群体中有所不同。
