Equity analysis of Chinese physician allocation based on Gini coefficient and Theil index

Spatial and Social Equity Index for Equity Based Resource Allocation

Equity based resource allocation under budget-constrained schemes always deal with priority targeting. This mechanism requires the use of equity measurement as important input for the decision-making process. Available equity measures such as the Gini Index more focus on equality measurement, which also disregards spatial features. It is therefore insufficient to determine priority setting for ...

Equality of Medical Health Resource Allocation in China Based on the Gini Coefficient Method

BACKGROUND The Chinese government is trying to achieve the goal of "universal access to basic health care services". However, the inequality of the distribution of health care resources across the country is the biggest obstacle. This paper aims to explore these inequalities and the extent to which the method of analysis influences the perception. METHODS The indicators of health care resourc...
