Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the regional differences in health resource allocation in Guangdong Province and provide references for optimizing health resource allocation in Guangdong Province. Methods:The health resource density index,entropy weight-TOPSIS method,and RSR method were used to comprehensively evaluate the allocation of health resources in Guangdong Province from 2018 to 2022. Results:The results of the entropy weight-TOPSIS analysis showed that the average levels of comprehensive evaluation in the Pearl River Delta,Western Wing (West Guangdong),Eastern Wing (East Guangdong),and mountainous areas (North Guangdong) from 2018 to 2022 were 0.4452,0.1338,0.2144 and 0.0566,respectively. The RSR grading results show that Zhuhai,Dongguan,Guangzhou and Shenzhen had better allocation of health resources,with a"good"grading result;Shaoguan,Yunfu and Heyuan are worse. Conclusion:There is an obvious regional difference in the allocation of health resources in Guangdong Province. The allocation level of health resources in the Pearl River Delta and the Eastern Wing (East Guangdong) is relatively high,while the allocation level of health resources in the western wing (West Guangdong) and the mountainous areas (North Guangdong) is relatively low. In the future,Guangdong Province should pay attention to the areas with poor allocation of health resources,develop regional characteristic economy,strengthen the training of health talents,optimize the allocation of health resources,and realize that all people in the province can enjoy high-quality,convenient and equal medical and health services. At the same time,it is also necessary to strengthen cooperation and exchanges among regions to jointly promote the comprehensive development of health undertakings in Guangdong Province.
