What is Health Economics
The study of health economics is a subfield of economics that focuses on issues concerning the production and consumption of health and healthcare, including concerns concerning efficiency, effectiveness, value, and behavior. When it comes to figuring out how to enhance health outcomes and lifestyle patterns through interactions between individuals, healthcare providers, and clinical environments, health economics is an essential field to study. In a broad sense, health economists investigate the operation of healthcare systems as well as behaviors that have an impact on health, such as quitting smoking, developing diabetes, and being overweight.
