Determinants (Social) of health Factors that influence individual and population health status Four major categories (% of premature death contributed by) Individual behavior (____%) Genetic makeup (_____%) Medical practice (____%) Environment (____%)

Measures of health status (individual and population) Self-perceived health status Longevity (life expectancy) Morbidity Disability Mortality Birth weight

Important (if not unique) aspects of health care economics EXTENT OF GOVERNMENT INVOLVEMENT Government is involved into many markets, but seldom as extensively as in health care UNCERTAINTY Providers also confront large uncertainty ASYMMETRIC KNOWLEDGE In normal economic exchange, most individuals know enough relevant information to make a decision, but if one person knows far more than the other it is asymmetric

Continued EXTERNALITIES Prominence of insurance Arise when one person’s actions create benefits for or impose cost on other, and when those benefits and costs are not privately accounted for in an individual’s decisions Prominence of insurance Problems of information Other entities, it’s easy to know when a problem occurs and how to fix it Large role of NFP firms Restrictions on competition Role of equity and need

Continued Illness is contingent, urgent, uncertain Health is priceless Contingent = disease may or may not occur Urgent = when you need it, sometimes it can’t wait Uncertain = Outcomes are unknown Health is priceless Health affects values of other goods Better health – better life Quality of life Having more does not reduce the value of health Dynamic change, driven by research and technology Personal tastes/preferences are secondary

CAN WE PAY SOMEBODY TO CARE We expect health care providers to “care” without referring to money. By nature, HC is about caring, we don’t pay extra to get care, but in order to get care, we have to pay

High-tech/High touch Health care is a high-tech/high-touch industry.
