2. determine if the use of visits to health care providers acts as an adequate measure of service demand. Speculate on how the time cost demand of health care (and other reasons) may have contributed to the lower observed demand for health care in the western United States. Provide specific examples to support your rationale.The time cost demand of healthcare has among other service-delivery models have led to a reduction in the demand for healthcare in Western US. This was because the policies made healthcare service users to make the choice of providers primarily following the consideration of the economic factors surrounding care. Further due to the high time price impact of getting care from public healthcare centers many patients were discouraged from making the choice of accessing care from a public service outlet (Torgerson Donaldson & Reid 1994). For that reason among many women in Western United States the cost and the time required seeking routine healthcare services like maternal health; gynecological or family planning services were more likely to desist from seeking these services throughout the year. However in the case of those that sought the given care the number of visits made by women after seeking healthcare services was not affected by the outlook of the healthcare services delivery policies and the delivery system. For that reason towards addressing the issue and to offer solutions to the evident reduction in seeking healthcare services the medical services models adopted should check the variable of the type of service providers chosen to offer services. Further the time price effect of seeking for healthcare services should also be offered more attention so as to ensure that the different classes of patients do not stop seeking medical services due to the difficulties falling in the way of medical services delivery (Torgerson Donaldson & Reid 1994).
