■实现全民健康覆盖是联合国可持续发展目标的突出目标之一。减少自付支出(OOPE)至关重要,因为高OOPE会阻止医疗保健服务的使用,这可能导致不良的健康结果和医疗贫困。
■该研究试图确定各种因素的影响,例如国内一般政府卫生支出,国内生产总值,政府计划和强制性缴费型医疗融资计划,和新兴经济体人均OOPE自愿健康保险计划。
■使用面板数据的计量经济学方法。
■该研究分析了世界卫生组织公开可用的面板数据,随机,和动态模型。
■国内一般政府卫生支出和国内生产总值与OOPE的增加有关。政府计划,强制性缴费型医疗保健融资计划,自愿健康保险计划与减少OOPE有关。
■总而言之,这项研究,通过面板数据的计量经济学方法进行,阐明了减少OOPE以实现全民健康覆盖的至关重要性,与联合国可持续发展目标保持一致。各国应实施以预防保健和健康促进为重点的整体方法,提供全面的医疗保险,加强公共卫生系统,规范药品价格。
使新兴经济体的医疗保健负担得起本研究探讨了如何使发展中国家的医疗保健更加负担得起。由于自付费用高(直接支付医疗服务的钱),人们经常跳过所需的护理。研究人员分析了多个国家的数据,以了解影响这些成本的因素。他们发现,虽然政府在医疗保健和强劲的经济上的支出是好事,具有讽刺意味的是,它们会导致人们自掏腰包支付更多的医疗费用。然而,政府医疗保健计划,强制性健康保险,甚至自愿保险计划都可以帮助降低这些成本。该研究表明,将这些自付费用保持在较低水平是实现联合国每个人都能获得医疗保健的目标的关键。各国可以通过注重预防保健来实现这一目标,确保每个人都有健康保险,加强公共卫生系统,控制药品价格。
UNASSIGNED: Achieving universal health coverage is one of the prominent targets of the United Nations\' sustainable development goals. Reducing out-of-pocket expenditure (OOPE) is essential because high OOPE can deter the use of healthcare services, which can lead to poor health outcomes and medical impoverishment.
UNASSIGNED: The study sought to determine the effects of various factors such as Domestic General Government Health Expenditure, Gross Domestic Product, Government schemes and compulsory contributory healthcare financing schemes, and Voluntary health insurance schemes on OOPE per Capita in emerging economies.
UNASSIGNED: Econometric methods using panel data.
UNASSIGNED: The study analyzed the publicly available panel data from the World Health Organization using fixed, random, and dynamic models.
UNASSIGNED: Domestic General Government Health Expenditure and Gross Domestic Product are associated with an increase in OOPE. Government schemes, compulsory contributory healthcare financing schemes, and voluntary health insurance programs are linked to a reduction in OOPE.
UNASSIGNED: In conclusion, this study, conducted through econometric methods on panel data, sheds light on the critical importance of reducing OOPE to achieve universal health coverage, aligning with the United Nations\' sustainable development goals. Countries shall implement a holistic approach focusing on preventive healthcare and health promotion, providing comprehensive health insurance, strengthening public health systems, and regulating medicine prices.
Making healthcare affordable in emerging economies This study examines how to make healthcare more affordable in developing countries. People often skip needed care due to high out-of-pocket costs (money paid directly for medical services). The researchers analyzed data across multiple countries to see what affects these costs. They found that while government spending on healthcare and a strong economy are good things, they can ironically lead to people paying more out of pocket for medical care. However, government healthcare programs, mandatory health insurance, and even voluntary insurance plans can all help bring these costs down. The study suggests that keeping these out-of-pocket costs low is key to achieving the United Nations’ goal of everyone having access to healthcare. Countries can achieve this by focusing on preventive care, ensuring everyone has health insurance, strengthening public health systems, and keeping the price of medicine under control.
