Equal Opportunity and Luck
Equality of opportunity (EOp) is a broad category of egalitarian theories that has attracted considerable attention in recent decades. Empirical implementations of EOp primarily focus on the explained component of inequality, classifying determinants of the outcome (e.g., health) into effort —legitimate causes of inequality—and circumstance —illegitimate causes of inequality. Largely overlooked is unexplained variation, which in statistical analy…

Does moral reasoning influence public values for health care priority setting
Cautionary tails of grip strength in health inequality studies
Health inequalities and inequities by age
Successful aging is an important policy goal in an aging society. A key indicator of successful aging of a population is whether health inequalities (differences) and inequities (unfair differences) in the population increase or decrease with age. This study investigates how health inequalities and inequities differ across age groups in the Canadian population within the equity framework of equal opportunity for health, using two popular measures…
Moral Hazard in Health Insurance
This history of moral hazard in health insurance shows that this concept is different from how moral hazard is understood in economics outside of health. Health economists are divided on their understanding and conceptualization of moral hazard in health insurance and we show that these divisions can be organized along two main questions: one on the nature of demand for health care and one on the nature of demand for health insurance. The former …
Unexplained health inequality – is it unfair
The choice of the fairness-standardization method is ethical and influences the empirical health inequity results considerably. More debate and analysis is necessary regarding which treatment of the unexplained inequality has the stronger foundation in equity considerations
Fair reckoning
Objective To investigate how participants in an economic resource allocation survey construct notions of fairness. Design Qualitative interview study guided by interpretive grounded theory methods. Setting and participants Qualitative interviews were conducted with volunteer university‐ ( n = 39) and community‐based ( n = 7) economic survey participants. Intervention or main variables studied We explored how participants constructed meanings to g…
A three-stage approach to measuring health inequalities and inequities
The measurement of health inequities is an excitingly multidisciplinary endeavour. Its development requires interdisciplinary integration of advances from relevant disciplines. The proposed three-stage approach is one such effort and stimulates cross-disciplinary dialogues, specifically, about conceptual and empirical significance of definitions of health inequities
Physician Resource Planning in Canada
An effective solution to the problem of access to physician services in Canada must extend beyond an over-exclusive focus on the number of providers to consider the behaviour of physicians in greater depth. The amount of labour and associated services supplied by physicians depends importantly on their attitudes regarding work, on practice and non-practice income opportunities, and on the policy environment in which they practise. Hence, the amou…
The Relationship Between Physician Hours of Work, Service Volume and Service Intensity
Problems of access to physician services have arisen in Canada at a time when physician hours of work have been undergoing important changes. This study investigates the relationship between physicians' hours of direct patient care and physicians' service supply using individual-level data from a random sample of Ontario general/family physicians. The empirical findings reveal that the variation across physicians in total billing is dominated by …
Physician and Practice Characteristics Associated with the Early Utilization of New Prescription Drugs
BACKGROUND: Prescription of new drugs contributes to substantial increases in annual drug expenditures. A small proportion of physicians appear to be early users of new prescription drugs and little is known about their characteristics. OBJECTIVE: To estimate the initial utilization rate of new prescription drugs among physicians, and the physician and practice characteristics associated with early use. DESIGN: Cumulative prospective assessment o…
Examining the Role of Health Services Research in Public Policymaking
Conceptual, methodological, and practical issues await those who seek to understand how to make better use of health services research in developing public policy. Some policies and some policymaking processes may lend themselves particularly well to being informed by research. Different conclusions about the extent to which policymaking is informed by research may arise from different views about what constitutes health services research (is it …

The many meanings of deinsuring a health service
Geographically-decentralized planning and management in health care
When tinkering is not enough
Prompted by fiscal deficits and guided by recommendations of provincial review commissions, a number of provinces are restructuring their health care systems to iniprove resource management. British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Quebec, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia have published comprehensive plans for health care reforms. The plans reveal a diversity of management approaches, including devolved structures in British Columbia, Saskatchewan…
A Needs-Based Approach to Resource Allocation in Health Care
Stephen Birch, John Eyles, Jeremiah Hurley, Brian Hutchison, Shelley Chambers, A Needs-Based Approach to Resource Allocation in Health Care, Canadian Public Policy / Analyse de Politiques, Vol. 19, No. 1 (Mar., 1993), pp. 68-85
Controlling Drug Expenditure in Canada
Simulated Effects of Incomes-Based Policies on the Distribution of Physicians
As the United States enters a period of adequate physician supply (or even surplus), policies to ameliorate the maldistribution of physicians across communities and medical specialties will depend more heavily on explicit redistributional incentives. Targeted financial incentives are an obvious method for encouraging desirable practice choices. This paper simulates the effect of a series of incomes policies on the distribution of sample physician…
