The Relationship Between Economic Growth and Public Health Service Expenditures in Upper Middle-Income Countries

Öz:
In this academic study, the specific correlation between economic growth and healthcare expen- ditures will be evaluated through the panel data analysis method, using the public healthcare expenditures data of 25 upper middle-income countries between the years 2000–2009. In the study, national general government expenditures per capita were used as a key indicator typi- cally representing healthcare expenditures. The explanatory variables in the model are the gross fixed capital formation and the ratio of employment to population. As a result of the extended Hausman test, it was decided that the model was suitable for the two-way fixed effects model. In the fixed effects model, the Driscoll–Kraay estimator was used because of the deviation from the basic assumptions. According to the apparent results of the economic model, there is remarkably a certain relationship between public healthcare expenditures and economic growth. In other words, the results of the economic analysis support the view that investments in the health sec- tor in upper middle-income countries lead to an increase in economic growth, primarily in its contribution to public health. In this direction, it is expected that the study will contribute to forthcoming studies in terms of emphasizing the importance of public investments in terms of actors and institutions in the health system.

Üst Orta Gelirli Ülkelerde Ekonomik Büyüme ve Kamu Sağlık Hizmeti Harcamaları Arasındaki İlişki

Öz:
Bu çalışmada 25 üst orta gelirli ülkenin 2000–2009 seneleri arasındaki kamu sağlık hizmeti masrafları verilerinden faydalanılarak sağlık ve iktisadi büyüme arasındaki bağlantı panel veri analiz metodu aracılığıyla değerlendirilecektir. Çalışmada kişi başına ulusal genel devlet har- camaları, sağlık harcamalarını temsil eden gösterge olarak kullanılmıştır. Modeldeki açıklayıcı değişkenler ise gayri safi sabit sermaye oluşumu ve istihdamın nüfusa oranıdır. Genişletilmiş Hausman testi sonucunda modelin iki yönlü sabit etkiler modeline uygun olduğuna karar veril- miştir. Sabit etkiler modelinde temel varsayımlardan sapma nedeniyle Driscoll–Kraay tahmincisi kullanılmıştır. Modelden elde edilen neticeye göre, kamu sağlık hizmeti harcamaları ile iktisadi büyüme arasında olumlu yönde bir bağlantı bulunmaktadır. Diğer bir ifadeyle analiz sonuçları, üst-orta gelirli ülkelerde sağlık sektörüne yönelik yatırımların başta kamu sağlığına yaptığı katkı ile bağlantılı olarak ekonomik büyüme artışına yol açtığı görüşünü destekler niteliktedir. Bu doğrultuda çalışmanın sağlık sistemi içinde yer alan aktörler ve kurumlar açısından kamu yatı- rımlarının önemini vurgulaması anlamında gelecekte yapılacak olan çalışmalara katkı sağlaması beklenmektedir.
