Association between healthcare resources, healthcare systems, and population health in European countries
The findings indicate that higher allocations of certain healthcare resources, such as hospital beds, are associated with poorer health outcomes, which suggests potential inefficiencies in resource utilization. Observations also show that countries using the same healthcare systems tend to have similar patterns of resource allocation, which may influence the performance of these systems. Policymakers should consider these associations when planning resource allocation and when selecting or modifying healthcare system models in their countries.
