Abstract

Bu çalışma Türkiye’de 2011-2018 yıllarına ait BİT ve hava kirliliğinin 81 ilin sağlık harcaması üzerine etkisini analiz etmeyi amaçlamıştır. Bu doğrultuda 4 model kurulmuş ve bu modeller panel veri yöntemiyle analiz edilmiştir. Elde edilen bulgular doğrultusunda hava kirliliği ve cep telefonu abone sayısının sağlık harcaması üzerine etkisi bulunmazken, internet abone sayısı ve endeks değişkenlerinin (yazarların kendi hesaplaması) sağlık harcaması üzerine etkisi negatiftir. Çalışma, Türkiye’de hava kirliliği ve BİT’lerin sağlık harcaması üzerine etkisini inceleyen ilk çalışmalardan olması açısından özgün bir değere sahip olmakta ve literatüre katkı sağlamaktadır.

The Effect of Information-Communication Technologies (ICT) and Air Pollution on Health Expenditures

Abstract

This study analyses the effects of ICT and air pollution on health expenditures of 81 Turkish provinces during 2011-2018. Models were analysed through a panel data method. The results indicated that air pollution and mobile phone subscribers do not affect health expenditure. In contrast, the number of internet subscribers and index variable (devised by the authors) have a negative effect on health expenditure. This study has a unique value and contributes to the literature. It is one of the first studies scrutinizing the impact of air pollution and ICT on health expenditures in Turkey.
