The effect of health system governance on economic growth in Morocco: A VAR modeling approach
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This study explores the impact of health system governance on economic growth in Morocco, using an econometric approach and VAR modeling. It highlights the importance of effective health system governance for economic development, particularly through improved human capital and productivity. The results show that, in the short run, economic growth depends mainly on its own shocks, while the impact of health governance becomes significant in the long run. Impulse response functions reveal a delayed effect of improved governance on growth, with an initial negative GDP response followed by a rebound in the medium term. The study recommends structural reforms in the health sector, such as optimizing public spending, managing health infrastructure, and integrating digital technologies, to maximize the economic impact of health governance.
