We show that the choice of the welfare measure has a substantial impact on the degree of welfare-related health … inequality. Combining various income and wealth measures with different health measures, we calculate 80 health concentration … indices. The influence of the welfare measure is more pronounced when using subjective health measures than when using …

We show that the magnitude of the concentration index (CI) depends crucially on the underlying health measure. The … highest degree of inequality is found when dichotomized subjective health measures like health satisfaction or self …-assessed health (SAH) are employed. Measures of medical care usage like doctor visits result in substantially lower concentration …
