摘要
The existence of regional differences in the distribution of health resources that is described by many studies from different countries is an important problem of public health policy. In this paper, we evaluate the regional inequality in the distribution of doctors, nurses, and hospital beds in four Visegrad countries: the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, and Slovakia. The regional inequalities are measured by the Robin Hood Index at the NUTS 2 level. In the case of Hungary we found the highest regional inequality in the distribution of doctors. The Czech Republic has an unequal distribution of nurses. Hospital beds are distributed unequally in Poland.
