Abstract

Napjainkban a kormányzattól és a biztosítóktól kezdve a szolgáltatókig és a fogyasztókig mindenki az egészségügyi piaci versenyről beszél. De mit is értenek piaci versenyen? Vajon azonos dolgokról beszélnek-e? Mivel az egészségpolitika alakításában az egészségügy különböző szereplői is részt vesznek, ez a kérdés alapvető fontosságú. Kevés szó esik arról is, hogy az egészségügy kulcsszereplői hogyan képzelik el a versenyt a saját szempontjukból. Röviden áttekintjük a fejlett országok tapasztalatait, különös tekintettel az Egyesült Államok, Egyesült Királyság, Hollandia, valamint Ausztria és Németország példáján. Elemzésünk alapján elmondható, hogy a verseny az egészségügy területén valamennyi vizsgált országban korlátozott, az eredmények értékelése pedig nagyfokú óvatosságot igényel. Journal of Economic Literature (JEL) kód: I11.
