Abstract

본 논문에서는 시장에서 추계되는 소비자 의료가격지수의 바이어스를 가져오는 두 가지 원인을 살펴보았다 첫 번째로 가격지수구성이 갖는 구조적인 특성으로부더 야기되는 바이어스문제를 살펴보았고, 두 번째로, 소비자가 시장에서 실제로 구매하는 의료서비스와 해당 서비스 가격에 대한 모호한 정의로부터 야기되는 바이어스 문제를 살펴보았다 일반적인 가격지수는 최종 소비재 및 서비스 가격 변동 추계를 원칙으로 한다. 그러한 원칙이 의료가격 지수 구성의 경우 무시되고 의료서비스 생산을 위한 생산 요소가격 변동을 추계하여 최종 의료서비스 가격지수로 대용하고 있음을 보여주고 있다.
