Abstract

Bu makale, 2000-2020 yılları arasında Çin ve Güney Kore'nin sağlık harcamaları ile ekonomik büyüme arasındaki ilişkiyi detaylı bir şekilde incelemekte ve özellikle eşbütünleşme analizi sonuçlarına odaklanmaktadır. Araştırmanın temel bulgularına göre, her iki ülkede sağlık harcamaları ile ekonomik büyüme arasında anlamlı bir ilişki tespit edilmiştir. Çin'deki sonuçlar, sağlık harcamalarındaki artışın ekonomik büyümeyi %4.46 oranında azalttığını göstermektedir. Öte yandan, Güney Kore için bu oran %0.94 olarak belirlenmiştir. Bu bulgular, her iki ülkede sağlık harcamalarının ekonomik büyüme üzerinde farklı etkileri olduğunu göstermektedir. Çin'de sağlık harcamalarındaki artışın ekonomik büyümeyi olumsuz etkilemesi, muhtemelen sağlık sistemlerinin yapısal farklılıkları, harcama alanlarındaki öncelikler ve ekonomik büyüme stratejilerindeki değişikliklerle ilişkilidir. Öte yandan, Güney Kore'de daha düşük bir negatif etki, sağlık harcamalarının ekonomik büyümeye daha uyumlu bir şekilde entegre edildiğini veya ekonomik büyümeyi desteklemek amacıyla daha etkili bir şekilde kullanıldığını işaret edebilir.

THE EFFECTS OF HEALTH EXPENDITURES ON ECONOMIC GROWTH: A STUDY ON CHINA AND SOUTH KOREA ECONOMIES

Year 2024, Volume: 6 Issue: 1, 39 - 47, 16.01.2024

Abstract

This paper examines in detail the relationship between health expenditures and economic growth in China and South Korea between 2000 and 2020, focusing particularly on the results of cointegration analysis. According to the main findings of the study, there is a significant relationship between health expenditures and economic growth in both countries. The results in China show that an increase in health expenditures reduces economic growth by 4.46%. On the other hand, this rate was determined to be 0.94% for South Korea. These findings show that health expenditures have different effects on economic growth in both countries. The negative impact of the increase in health expenditures on economic growth in China is probably related to structural differences in health systems, priorities in spending areas, and changes in economic growth strategies. On the other hand, a lower negative impact in South Korea may indicate that health expenditures are more harmoniously integrated into economic growth or used more effectively to support economic growth.
