Priorities for Effective Management of Health Expenditures in OECD Countries: Fuzzy AHP Application
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: This study aims to identify the determinants of health expenditures through a comprehensive literature review, contributing to the design of effective health policies. The Fuzzy AHP method was used to evaluate the determinants of health expenditures, categorising OECD member countries into developed and developing groups. In both country groups, health services emerged as the most significant determinant. Education, income, and economic changes were prominent in developed countries, while governance and education were key in developing countries. The study highlights the need to establish different strategic pathways based on the priorities of each country group, offering unique insights.
