Daftar Isi:
- Health economics is concerned with finding the most efficient allocation of health resources to achieve a given policy goal. Equity, or fairness, is another separate and important criterion that health policy makers and analysts must address. Equity in the health care context refers to fairness in the relative distribution of resources, utilization, access, and health among the people in the economy. Two dimensions of equity are recognized: horizontal equity and vertical equity. The former refers to equal treatment of equals, the latter refers to unequal treatment of unequals. This paper illuminates definitions and issues of equity, and highlights recent methods of quantifying inequity and computing inequity indices. Also illustrated is the theoretical implications of various tax systems on equity. Keywords: equity, horizontal equity, vertical equity, health policy, tax system.
