Abstract

The analysis of health commodity typically focuses on the efficiency and equity of its market or on the quality of its production and often on the sustainability of its approach to financing. The paper aims to emphasize the importance of health commodity in the process of creation and distribution of income. The methodology is based on the construction of the Social Accounting Matrix with particular attention to health output. We first perform the dispersion analysis in order to evaluate the backward and forward linkages of the health production and then, we simulate different key policies favourable to health commodity aiming to quantify their impacts on the main macroeconomic aggregates.
