Abstract

This study examines whether there is a relation between education index and government health expenditures for Turkey between 1980 and 2012 using the Kapetanios Unit Root Test based on structural breaks, the Maki Cointegration Test and Causality Analysis based on Vector Error Correction Model. Empirical practices in the study showed that series were stationary in first differences and there is a long-term relation between them. As a result of the causality analysis, unidirectional causality was determined from education to health.
