  • (written as Output)
    The effects produced by production. Changes in health status are the ultimate output of the health service production function.

In general, the use of inputs as measures of output is not recommended since the practice begs the question as to the nature and amount of output (if any.) that the inputs may generate, particularly at the margin, by assuming essentially that there is a one-to-one correspondence between input and output.
