Distribution of Health & Health Care

This thesis is an empirical investigation of the distribution of health care in Danish population. The purpose is to analyse income-related inequality in health and health care in Funen County, Denmark 2000 and 2001. Concentration indices will be used to characterise the distribution of health and health care with respect to income, and decomposition techniques will be applied to the indices to obtain information about the composition and sources of inequality from determinants and dimensions.
