Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the equity of Traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)human resource allocation across 31 provinces in China and explore its influencing pathways,aiming to provide scientific reference for optimizing the allocation of TCM human resources.Methods:The Health Resource Density Index(HRDI)was employed to measure the equity of TCM human resource allocation in China,and the fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis(fsQCA)was utilized to explore the configurational pathways influencing this equity.Results:Based on the data from 2021,the HRDI of TCM human resources in China exhibited significant regional disparities,manifesting as a distribution pattern of"high in the east and low in the west."Three pathways promoting high equity were identified:the internal-external balance-driven pathway(H1),the economy-demand co-driven pathway(H2),and the government-led driving pathway(H3).Meanwhile,three pathways leading to low equity were also recognized:the economy-demand constraint pathway(L1)and the internal-external constraint pathways(L2、L3).Conclusion:There are notable regional disparities in the equity of TCM human resource allocation in China,with multiple factors jointly influencing this equity,among which population density serves as a core factor.In subsequent efforts to enhance equity,it is advisable to consider optimizing the synergies among multiple factors and implementing precise policies for different regions to promote efficient allocation and balanced development of TCM human resources.
