Foundations of Intelligent Health Economy Design

Providing high-quality health services in a sustainable and egalitarian way has long attracted the attention of economists. The economic dimension of health services and their production and consumption by suppliers and patients, respectively, are the focus of health economics, a subdiscipline of economics that recognizes the need for a different approach due to the differences and particularities in the nature of health and health services compared to the production of goods and the provision of services in the economy. Health economics has great relevance, since its analysis and contribution to policy decisions have practical implications for the well-being of the population and the development of the economy in the medium and long term.
