| Comments | My research interests are health economics, especially investigating the burden of disease and the changing patterns of health behavior in different socioeconomic contexts. I would like to estimate the financial burden of disease as an effective method for public policy assessments. I also apply different theoretical models to test how financial knowledge can affect health behavior, encouraging an interdisciplinary intervention approach in health policy. |
