Abstract:
Objective:To explore whether there is a solution to the trilemma of health policy,and to reveal whether the health policy and policy portfolio can simultaneously improve the"health","wealth"and"equity"of residents.Methods:The study constructs a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model and indicator estimation procedure that includes human health capital,and used Bayesian model comparison method to determine reasonable model settings.Using numerical simulation methods,by adjusting the corresponding parameters,it also simulates the policy effect of implementing comprehensive medical supervision policy and medical quality management policy separately,as well as the policy effects of combining these two policies.Results:Simply implementing comprehensive medical supervision policy may lead to the deviation of health outcomes from health affordability and financing equity,and simply implementing medical quality management policy may lead to the deviation of health affordability from health outcomes and financing fairness,and the combination of these two policies can effectively solve the trilemma of health policy.Conclusion:The problem of health policy trilemma is not unsolvable,and the mutual deviation of"health","wealth"and"equity"can be reconciled through reasonable policy combination design.
