Bu çalışma, Türkiye’de sağlık harcamalarının gelir dağılımı üzerindeki etkisinin incelenmesi amacıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışma, 1980-2017 dönemini kapsamaktadır. Çalışmada Gini katsayısı bağımlı değişken ve kamu sağlık harcamalarının GSYH’ye oranı ise bağımsız değişkendir. Çalışmada seriler arasında eşbütünleşme ilişkisi bulunduğu belirlenmiştir. ARDL sınır testi yaklaşımına göre, kamu sağlık harcamalarında meydana gelen %1’lik bir artış, uzun dönemde Gini katsayısını %0,03 oranında azaltmaktadır. Toda Yamamoto nedensellik testine göre sağlık harcamalarından gelir dağılımı eşitsizliğine doğru bir nedensellik ilişkisi bulunmaktayken gelir dağılımı eşitsizliğinden sağlık harcamalarına doğru bir nedensellik ilişkisi bulunmadığı belirlenmiştir.
This study was conducted to examine the effects of health expenditures on income distribution in Turkey. The study covered the period of 1980-2017. In the study, the Gini coefficient was dependent variable, and the ratio of public health expenditures to GDP was independent. In order to determine the stability of the series, first the unit root test was performed, and then ARDL bounds testing approach was used to investigate the existence of a long-term relationship between variables. Toda Yamamoto causality test was performed, because the variables included in the study were stationary at different degrees. In the results of the study, it was determined that there was an integration relationship between the series. According to the ARDL bounds testing approach, a 1% increase in public health expenditures reduced the Gini coefficient by 0.03% in the long run. According to the Toda Yamamoto causality test, while there was a causal relationship from health expenditures to income distribution inequality, it was determined that there was no causality relationship from income distribution inequality to health expenditures
