摘　　要：市场的竞争性不仅取决于市场结构,还取决于价格信息在消费者之间的传播速度。由于医疗服务的价格信息在患者之间的传播是一个缓慢的时间过程,所以医疗服务市场看似有竞争而实际上竞争程度远比一般商品和服务市场低得多。在说明医疗服务市场的高价格水平形成机制的同时,指出政府只要能够改变医疗服务价格信息的传播机制,就能够建立一个以市场机制为基础的高效率的医疗卫生体制。The competitiveness of a market does not merely lie on the market structure, but also de- pends on the transmission of price signals among consumers. Generally, price siertals spread slowly from patient to patient. So the degree of competition for the healthcare market is much lower than most commodity and service markets. This paper analyses the mechanism behind high price level in the healthcare market. It points out that once the government improves the way price signals travel among consumers, we can expect high efficiency in healthcare market.
