The design of payment systems for physicians under global budget - an experimental study

Article Abstract:

The expenditure cap method was proven to be the best procedure in controlling physician service expenditures under global budgeting. Theoretical analysis revealed that the symmetric Nash equilibrium resulting from the expenditure cap was capable of providing greater quantity of physician services than that of expenditure target's. The expenditure cap's Nash equilibrium was able to produce a more precise estimate of medical students' behavior.

A fuzzy design of the willingness to invest in Sweden

Article Abstract:

The fuzzy logic procedure developed to empirically test the correspondence between the real interest rate and aggregate investments in Sweden exhibits information regarding the data that is not grasped by traditional linear regressions. The results may prove useful in the finding of a non-linear association between the real interest rate and aggregate investment spendings.
