Towards an economic model of the Dutch health care sector
构建了荷兰医疗保健部门的经济模型，模拟患者、全科医生、专科医生和医院管理者的行为及其互动，通过数值仿真展示机制。
This paper describes the construction of a model of the Dutch health care sector. It discusses the behaviour of patients, general practitioners, medical specialists and hospital managers. It also analyses the various ways the actors interact, such as general practitioners supplying the services demanded by patients, specialists dispatching referrals made by general practitioners or hospital managers boosting output to match an increasing amount of specialist services. Numerical simulations illustrate the various mechanisms in the model.
