政府卫生支出城市偏向与中国城乡收入差距--理论分析与实证检验

摘要

运用动态面板数据模型实证分析了政府卫生支出及其城市偏向与城乡收入差距的关系，研究结果显示：政府卫生支出在全国层面上显著地导致了城乡收入差距的扩大，原因是政府卫生支出城市偏向的存在。引入交互项考察地区效应发现，以上结论依然稳健，且由于西部地区的政府卫生支出城市偏向强于东部导致西部地区政府卫生支出对城乡收入差距的扩大效应强于东部。此外，新农合对缩小城乡差距的效果并不显著。%This paper using static panel and dynamic panel model analyzes the relationship of public health expenditure,urban bias and urban-rural income gap,empirical results show that:firstly,public health expenditure significantly leads to the expansion of urban -rural income gap on the national level,because the government health expenditures urban bias exists.Secondly,we find that the bias of western region is stronger than the east,so compared with eastern region,the public health expenditure of western region has a stronger effect on the gap.In addition,the effect of NCMS on narrowing the urban-rural income gap is not significant.Finally,some policy recommendations are put forward.
