摘要

我们利用对马拉维奇穆图区母亲的调查数据，研究了医疗机构分娩对马拉维新生儿死亡率的影响。研究利用分娩收缩时间作为工具变量来克服医疗机构分娩的内生性。结果表明，医疗机构分娩并不会降低 7 天和 28 天的死亡率。在马拉维这样一个医疗质量严重受损的低收入国家，我们得出的结论是，鼓励医疗机构接生可能无法保证新生儿出生后获得积极的健康结果。

The effect of health facility births on newborn mortality in Malawi.

We examine the effect of health facility delivery on newborn mortality in Malawi using data from a survey of mothers in the Chimutu district, Malawi. The study exploits labour contraction time as an instrumental variable to overcome endogeneity of health facility delivery. The results show that health facility delivery does not reduce 7-day and 28-day mortality rates. In a low-income country like Malawi where the healthcare quality is severely compromised, we conclude that encouraging health facility delivery may not guarantee positive health outcomes for newborn births.

期刊介绍： The focus of the International Journal of Health Economics and Management is on health care systems and on the behavior of consumers, patients, and providers of such services. The links among management, public policy, payment, and performance are core topics of the relaunched journal. The demand for health care and its cost remain central concerns. Even as medical innovation allows providers to improve the lives of their patients, questions remain about how to efficiently deliver health care services, how to pay for it, and who should pay for it. These are central questions facing innovators, providers, and payers in the public and private sectors. One key to answering these questions is to understand how people choose among alternative arrangements, either in markets or through the political process. The choices made by healthcare managers concerning the organization and production of that care are also crucial. There is an important connection between the management of a health care system and its economic performance. The primary audience for this journal will be health economists and researchers in health management, along with the larger group of health services researchers. In addition, research and policy analysis reported in the journal should be of interest to health care providers, managers and policymakers, who need to know about the pressures facing insurers and governments, with consequences for regulation and mandates. The editors of the journal encourage submissions that analyze the behavior and interaction of the actors in health care, viz. consumers, providers, insurers, and governments. Preference will be given to contributions that combine theoretical with empirical work, evaluate conflicting findings, present new information, or compare experiences between countries and jurisdictions. In addition to conventional research articles, the journal will include specific subsections for shorter concise research findings and cont ributions to management and policy that provide important descriptive data or arguments about what policies follow from research findings. The composition of the editorial board is designed to cover the range of interest among economics and management researchers.Officially cited as: Int J Health Econ ManagFrom 2001 to 2014 the journal was published as International Journal of Health Care Finance and Economics.
