Abstract

Using a model of bivariate decision under risk of disease, with separates the financial losses from the health losses, we analyse the curative demand for healthcare and the determinants of overconsumption care problem. We also study the demand for self-protection and the demand for self-insurance as well as the impact of the risk aversion on each of these two demands.
