Objective:It explored the effects of local financial input on the efficiency of health resource allocation in China,and analyzed its nonlinear relationship,so as to provide a basis for health policy formulation.Methods:Based on the data of 31 provinces,municipalities and autonomous regions from 2010 to 2022,the super-efficiency SBM model was used to measure the allocation efficiency of health resources,and its distribution dynamics were analyzed in combination with kernel density estimation.The threshold regression model was used to evaluate the impact of different financial input levels on the efficiency.Results:Local financial input has significant threshold effect on health resource allocation efficiency.Kernel density estimation shows that with the increase of input,the efficiency distribution tends to be concentrated,the high efficiency region increases,and the low efficiency region decreases.Threshold regression results show that when the financial input exceeds the key threshold of 7.1%,the positive impact is significantly enhanced.Conclusion:Raising the key threshold of financial input can significantly improve the efficiency of health resource allocation.Policymakers should take regional differences into account,formulate differentiated strategies,strengthen implementation and supervision,ensure the effective use of funds,so as optimize health resource allocation.
