determine equilibrium price and quantity (Colander, 2006). He also says that various outside events can change supply and demand -- as well as the equilibrium in question (Colander, 2006). The
comments are basic here -- an increase in demand will drive up equilibrium price (and quantity) (Colander, 2006). On the other side of the coin, a decrease in demand will
push down prices and quantity (Colander, 2006). Furthermore, the supply/demand/price situation is influenced by governments -- governments can attempt intervention tactics when
it comes to trying to manipulate the market (Colander, 2006). But Colander is talking about general economics, as in a specific demand
for a supply or service, and the cost that the market is willing to pay for that. There are certain industries in which the supply and demand economic model tend
to go out the window, due to various situations. The healthcare industry is such a one, that may not perform to the usual demands of macroeconomics. Healthcare Economics
In a perfect world, one could take basic economic principles introduced by Colander and others, such as law of supply and demand, law of
diminishing returns, opportunity costs, etc., and apply them to health care. Technically, healthcare economics is defined as supply and demand of health care resources, as well as the impact of
