No DP 1995-10, Discussion Papers from Philippine Institute for Development Studies

Abstract: This paper is two-fold. The first part deals with whether insurance have or do not have inflationary effect on government and private hospital fees. The extent of its effect on hospital utilization rates and the determinants of demand and supply for hospital services are investigated. The second part is descriptive rather than analytical which presents the profile of hospital by ownership and by type of hospital care. The determinants of hospital investment behavior are also considered.
