A multivariate regression analysis shows that per capita expenditure has a negative effect on fertility, but large changes in per capita expenditure are needed to generate a substantial impact on the expected number of children per woman. Also women’s educational attainment is estimated to decrease fertility, both in rural and urban areas, particularly after schooling reaches the secondary leve...
South-East Asian Regional (SEAR) countries range from low- to middle-income countries and have considerable differences in mix of public and private sector expenditure on health. This study intends to estimate the income-elasticities of healthcare expenditure in public and private sectors separately for investigating whether healthcare is a 'necessity' or 'luxury' for citizens of these countrie...
In this paper, we estimate a health care demand function for 18 OECD countries for the period 1972-1995. We consider a demand side approach where health expenditure depend on per capita GDP and the relative price of health care. We use panel data unit root and stationarity tests to characterize our data. Then, we test cointegration between our variables with Kao[16] panel data cointegration tes...
