On Efficiency of Medical Services and Its Influencing Factors under New Medical Reform Policy in 2009
The new medical reform in 2009 is obviously public value-oriented. There are two questions needed to research: whether the public value is achieved on the sacrifice of medical service efficiency and to what extent the new medical reform policy affects medical service efficiency. Based on the panel data set of the 31 provinces in the period from 2005 to 2015, medical service efficiency is calculated by using DEA model, and the policys effect is evaluated with Tobit regression model. Results are as follows: the change tendency of medical service efficiency in most provinces presents U-shaped structure; medical policy has significant positive effect on service efficiency; among the factors, population size, rural income and age dependency ratio have significant positive effects on service efficiency, and urban income has negative effects on service efficiency.
