Feasibility and usefulness of Gini coefficients of primary care visits as a measure of service inequality: preliminary findings from a cross-sectional study using region-wide elect... by Xin Yang, Jing Chai, Jing Cheng, DeBin Wang, XingRong Shen, Rong Liu, ManMan Lu, Jia Xu, Ningjing Yang, Guocheng Li

“…While the observed GPVs for all causes witnessed: great inter-region variations, with the highest GPV being 4.38 times the lowest; a general decreasing trend over the 9-quarter period, being reduced by 18.48% on average; and atypical J-shaped trajectories along age groups for both sexes. The multivariate modelling revealed statistically significant associations between the all-cause-GPV and 10 out of 14 commonly available community-level variables studied.Conclusions GPVs can be accurately estimated using a limited number of months of EMRs and, guided by the relevant framework, analysis of GPVs can unveil useful clues in addressing unequal primary healthcare utilisation.…”
