Measuring socioeconomic inequality in health, health care and health financing by means of rank-dependent indices: A recipe for good practice
Erreygers, Guido; Van Ourti, Tom - In: Journal of Health Economics 30 (2011) 4, pp. 685-694
The tools to be used and other choices to be made when measuring socioeconomic inequalities with rank-dependent inequality indices have recently been debated in this journal. This paper adds to this debate by stressing the importance of the measurement scale, by providing formal proofs of...
