dc.description.abstract | If health were considered a product, medical care would
simply be one input used in producing it. Unfortunately, the
economics literature generally ignores this. Research just
focuses on medical care, medical insurance, and the workings of
its markets. But as Arrow (1963) himself admits, "particularly
at low levels of income, other commodities such as nutrition,
shelter, clothing, and sanitation may be much more significant"
than medical care as causal factors in health. | en_GB |
