, accounting for quality and productivity. Production factors (capital, labor, energy, materials and drugs) contributed 70% (drugs … alone contributed 52 %), better health outcomes (higher quality) contributed 5 %, and better use of resources (productivity …) contributed 25 %. We find increasing returns to scale, a markup of between 15% and 36% and a much larger productivity dispersion …

In this article, we propose a new approach to estimating health-care demand. The aim of this paper is to determine the production costs of health care from the demand function of care. To do this, we used an approach based on structural equations where consumption and demand are estimated to...

With prospective payment of hospitals becoming more common, measuring their performance is gaining in importance. However, the standard cost frontier model yields biased efficiency scores because it ignores technological heterogeneity between hospitals. In this paper, efficiency scores are...

Several European countries have followed the United States in introducing prospective payment for hospitals with the expectation of achieving cost efficiency gains. This article examines whether theoretical expectations of cost efficiency gains can be empirically confirmed. In contrast to...
