Abstract

Magyarországon a dolgozó korú férfiak egészségi állapota kirívóan rossz mind a fejlett, mind pedig az átalakuló környező piacgazdaságokkal való összehasonlításban. A tanulmány egészségtermelési függvények segítségével makroszinten vizsgálja Magyarország és Ausztria lakosainak egészségi állapotát, és összehasonlító elemzést végez az 1960-2004 közötti időszak adatai alapján. Míg az 1960-as években a két ország lakosságának egészségügyi állapota még azonos szinten állt, addig az 1970-es évek elejétől Magyarországon nagymértékű leszakadás figyelhető meg. Az egészségi állapot mértékét a munkaképes korú (15-60 éves) felnőttek halálozási rátájával közelítjük. Magyarázó tényezőkként az életmódot jellemző mutatókat (alkohol- és dohányfogyasztás, többletmunka a második, illetve a rejtett gazdaságban), a gazdaság hosszú távú fejlődését (az egy főre jutó GDP alakulása), az egészségügyben rendelkezésre álló forrásokat (orvosok relatív aránya) és a munkaerőpiac állapotát jellemző mutatót (munkanélküliség) vesszük figyelembe. Az egészségtermelési függvények regressziós becslésével sikerült jól közelíteni a mindkét országban ténylegesen lezajló folyamatokat. Journal of Economic Literature (JEL) kód: I12.
