Tóm tắt

Chúng tôi xem xét các nhân tố quyết định việc sử dụng dịch vụ nha khoa, đặc biệt là vai trò của các yếu tố cung ứng trong quy trình ra quyết định sử dụng, bằng cách sử dụng dữ liệu từ Khảo sát Y tế Phần Lan năm 1996. Trong mô hình hai phần, việc tìm kiếm dịch vụ được mô hình hóa bằng mô hình probit nhị biến với sự xem xét đến trí nhớ của nha sĩ, trong khi số lần khám nha sĩ dương tính được mô hình hóa bằng mô hình phân phối nhị thức âm bị cắt đứt ở không. Trí nhớ được xác định là một nhân tố trung tâm của việc tìm kiếm dịch vụ và có mối liên hệ đáng kể với các biến số như thu nhập và tỷ lệ thất nghiệp. Các biến số kinh tế xã hội cũng được kiểm soát và được phát hiện là những yếu tố quyết định quan trọng.
