| dc.description.abstract | This paper aims to better understand the factors which determine pharmaceutical expenditure. The variables used to explain pharmaceutical expenditure are: income; ageing; public financing; number of physicians; number of deaths per 100 thousand people; public delivery; urbanization, and price control policy. The model used includes not only pharmaceutical expenditure in PPP dollars but also pharmaceutical share in GDP and in health expenditure. We will also address the growth rate of pharmaceutical expenditure. At the end we will observe that GDP has a positive effect, just as it does in health expenditure, and that the existence of public reimbursement and public integrated systems increase pharmaceutical expenditure. | eng |
