Producing Health Consuming Health Care 5

Geoff McDonnell

From Evans RG and Stoddardt GL  1990 paper Soc Sci Med 31(12)1347-63 , also published in a book by Evans, Barer and Marmor, Why are some people healthy and others not?: The determinants of population health. We added impacts of spending and a "Thermostat" setting for population health controlling health spending. We now add another target for provider income and responses by providers to pressures to increase income with spending.
