“…Objectives To delineate hospital service areas (HSAs) using the Dartmouth approach in China and identify the hypothesised demand-side, supply-side and region-specific factors of health expenditure within HSAs.Design Population-based descriptive study.Setting We selected the metropolis of Chengdu, one of the three most populous cities in China as a case for the analysis, where approximately 16.33 million residents living.Participants Individual-level in-patient discharge records (n=904 298) during the fourth quarter of 2018 (from 1 September to 31 December) were extracted from Sichuan Health Commission. Cases of non-residents of Chengdu were excluded from the datasets.Methods We conducted three sets of analyses: (1) apply Dartmouth approach to delineate HSAs; (2) use Geographic Information System (GIS)-based method to demonstrate health expenditure variations across delineated HSAs and (3) employ a three-level multilevel linear model to examine the association between health expenditure and demand-side, supply-side and region-specific factors.Results A total of 113 HSAs with a median population of 60 472 (ranging from 7022 to 827 750) was delineated. …”
