Abstract: Since Arrow?s seminal paper in 1963, health economics has been highly investigated. This paper gives a brief overview of recent developments in health economics following three main directions. First, we analyze health care demand and the link between this demand, needs and health status. Second, a lot have been done on health insurance markets and the problems arising with information asymmetries, mainly moral hazard and adverse selection. Finally, health care system regulation analysis, including patients? responsabilisation, producers? payments and incentives, and managed care organization, has been extensively developed from a theoretical and an empirical point of view.
