| dc.description.abstract | Health human resources is one of the important factors in the growth and economic development of a
country, this is because HR is a catalyst of a change and innovation in everything. Health quality of human resources
will affect the size of productivity produced in a country, which in turn will affect the amount of income per capita of
the community and ultimately will have an impact on the level of community welfare. This study aims to analyse the
influence and significance of the relationship between Health Expenditure and economic welfare in Indonesia. The
research methods used are Granger Causality and Ordinary least square. Research variables included GDP per capita,
health expenditure per capita, household consumption per capita, life expectancy, labour force level. Data sources come
from the World Bank and other sources related to research data. The research data is sourced from World Bank in the
form of annual time series namely 1980 to 2016. The results of the study show that based on the results of the Granger
Causality, public health expenditure with economic growth and household consumption with economic growth has a
two-way relationship. While economic growth with the workforce and economic growth with life expectancy has a
direct relationship. Whereas based on OLS results show that health expenditure, life expectancy, labour force and
household consumption have a significant positive relationship to GDP per capita as evidenced by the probability value.
Suggestions that can be policy recommendations are focusing on institutional strengthening and budget allocation
planning, especially in the health sector. In addition, with the development of technology, it can provide easy access to
health services. | en_US |
