health economics  

Definición

  • Health economics investigates how scarce resources are used, or should be used, to satisfy health wants. Although in high-income countries 10% or more of wealth is spent on healthcare, resources are still scarce compared with the potentially unlimited want for physical, psychological, and social health. [Source: Encyclopedia of Medical Decision Making; Economics, Health Economics]
