abstract: 'BackgroundPoverty vulnerability has been defined as the likelihood of a
family falling into poverty in the upcoming months. Inequality is a
major cause of poverty vulnerability in developing countries. There is
evidence that establishing effective government subsidies and public
service mechanisms significantly reduces health poverty vulnerability.
One of the ways to study poverty vulnerability is by using empirical
data such as income elasticity of demand to perform the analysis. Income
elasticity refers to the extent to which changes in consumers'' income
affect changes in demand for commodities or public goods. In this work,
we assess health poverty vulnerability in rural and urban China. We
provide two levels of evidence on the marginal effects of the design and
implementation of government subsidies and public mechanisms in reducing
health poverty vulnerability, before and after incorporating the income
elasticity of demand for health.MethodsMultidimensional physical and
mental health poverty indexes, according to the Oxford Poverty \& Human
Development Initiative and the Andersen model, were implemented to
measure health poverty vulnerability by using the 2018 China Family
Panel Survey database (CFPS) as the data source for empirical analysis.
The income elasticity of demand for health care was used as the key
mediating variable of impact. Our assessment was conducted by a
two-level multidimensional logistic regression using STATA16
software.ResultsThe first level regression indicates that the marginal
utility of public mechanism (PM) in reducing urban and rural
vulnerability as expected poverty on physical and mental health
(VEP-PH\&MH) was insignificant. On the other hand, government subsidies
(GS) policies had a positive suppression effect on VEP-PH\&MH to a
relatively low degree. The second level regression found that given the
diversity of health needs across individual households, i.e., the income
elasticity of demand (HE) for health care products, PM and GS policies
have a significant effect in reducing VEP-PH\&MH in rural and urban
areas. Our analysis has verified the significant positive impact of
enacting accurate GS and PM policies on effectively reducing VEP-PH\&MH
in rural as well as urban areas.ConclusionsThis study shows that
implementing government subsidies and public mechanisms has a positive
marginal effect on reducing VEP-PH\&MH. Meanwhile, there are individual
variations in health demands, urban-rural disparities, and regional
disparities in the effects of GS and PM on inhibiting VEP-PH\&MH.
Therefore, special consideration needs to be given to the differences in
the degree of health needs of individual residents among urban and rural
areas and regions with varying economic development. Furthermore,
considerations of this approach in the current worldwide scenario are
analyzed.'
