Resumen:

Mexico?s health sector has experienced important changes in recent years due to the structural changes generated by public policies and the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic has had on the cost of health services and supplies. A price index of health services and inputs was estimated based on the information published by the INEGI and two volatility models were estimated for the said prices?a stochastic model and a GARCH model?disaggregated by the health spending classification defined by the WHO for the horizon 2000?2023. The results show that starting in 2018 periods of high-price volatility have been identified, which were exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic and have continued to make access to health more expensive to date. The estimated volatility measures are intended to be an input for actuarial economic studies on out-of-pocket spending as well as financial health coverage in Mexico. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2024.
