| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The optimal size of medical service area in comprehensive community care system has been discussed so far. In this study, we assume that the medical service area is a kind of hierarchical system and study the total number of ranks in the system as well as the optimal number of medical facilities in each rank in relation with the economies of scale. We also derive a standard of the optimal size and unit of a medical service area in comprehensive community care system. In our analysis, we especially take account of spatial competition between providers and make a comparison in locational patterns of providers in the cases of social optimum and competition. We find that the case of competition can yield the locational patterns that could never happen in the case of social optimum.
