Toplumu oluşturan bireylerin sağlık durumlarının düzeyi, aynı zamanda o toplumun ekonomik açıdan da gelişimini göstermektedir. Sağlıklı bireylerin yetiştirilmesi ve bireylerin sağlık seviyelerinin korunması için yapılan sağlık harcamaları aynı zamanda, beşeri sermaye birikimini de artıran unsurların başında gelmektedir. Öte yandan ekonomik kalkınma üzerinde önemli bir etkisi bulunan sağlık harcamalarının, kalifiye işgücü miktarını artıracağı da aşikârdır.
Bu makalede Meksika, Endonezya, Güney Kore ve Türkiye’nin oluşturduğu MIST ülkelerinde 2000 ve 2019 yılları arasındaki dönemde gerçekleşen sağlık harcamaları ve ekonomik kalkınma arasındaki ilişki incelenmektedir. Kullanılan veriler kişi başına sağlık harcamaları ve kişi başına GSYH verileri olup, Dünya Bankası veri tabanından elde edilmişlerdir. Seriler arasındaki eşbütünleşme ilişkisi Westerlund (2008) testiyle sınanmış, nedensellik ilişkininin belirlenmesinde ise Dumitrescu-Hurlin Panel Nedensellik analizi kullanılmıştır.
Araştırmanın ampirik bulgularına göre, MIST ülkelerindeki sağlık harcamaları ve ekonomik kalkınma arasında çift yönlü bir nedensellik ilişkisi olduğu belirlenmiştir.
The level of the health status of the individuals who make up the society also shows the economic development of that society. The health expenditure for the education of healthy individuals and the preservation of the health levels of individuals is also at the forefront of the elements that increase the accumulation of human capital. On the other hand, it is also obvious that health expenditure, which has a significant impact on economic development, will increase the amount of qualified labour.
This article examines the relationship between health expenditure and economic development in the MIST countries formed by Mexico, Indonesia, South Korea and Turkey in the period between 2000 and 2019. The data used are health expenditure per person and GDP data per person and are obtained from the World Bank database. The combination relationship between the series was tested by the Westerlund (2008) test, while the determination of the causality relationship was used by the Dumitrescu-Hurlin Panel Causal Analysis.
According to the empirical findings of the study, there is a bilateral causal relationship between health expenditure in MIST countries and economic development.
The level of health status of individuals constituting a society also indicates the economic development of that society. Health expenditures for raising healthy individuals and protecting their health levels are also one of the factors that increase human capital accumulation. On the other hand, it is obvious that health expenditures, which have a significant impact on economic development, will increase the amount of skilled labor force.
This article analyzes the relationship between health expenditures and economic development in MIST countries, which are composed of Mexico, Indonesia, South Korea and Turkey, in the period between 2000 and 2019. The data used are health expenditures per capita and GDP per capita, obtained from the World Bank database. The cointegration relationship between the series is tested with the Westerlund (2008) test, and Dumitrescu-Hurlin Panel Causality analysis is used to determine the causality relationship.
According to the empirical findings of the study, there is a bidirectional causality relationship between health expenditures and economic development in MIST countries.
