Does increased spending improve health outcomes? We analyzed 1988 data from OECD countries to determine how key health care indexes correlate with health care outcomes. Total health care spending per capita and outpatient and inpatient utilization are not related to health outcomes. How our resources are allocated seems to be more important than how much money is actually spent.
增加支出能改善健康状况吗?我们分析了经合组织国家1988年的数据,以确定关键医疗保健指标与医疗保健结果之间的关联。人均医疗保健总支出以及门诊和住院利用率与健康结果无关。资源的分配方式似乎比实际支出金额更为重要。
