Abstract
A comprehensive model concerning health care is constructed by considering a number of factors related to the population, expenditure, diets, employment and the supply side. Some attention will be given to the technological changes and their effects on the quality of health care. Three submodels are proposed, namely demographic, economic and medical. These subsystems will be linked and the resulting relations studied. A simulation of the model will be performed to test the validity of the model.
