Association Between Utilization of Regional Health Care Institutions and Regional Structural Characteristics : Evidence from a Super-Aged Metropolitan City, Busan, Korea
Objectives: This study examined the relationship between utilization of regional health care institutions and regional structural characteristics across 16 districts in Busan. Methods: Data were obtained from the 2024 Community Health Survey (CHS), the Korean Statistical Information Service (KOSIS), and the Statistical Geographic Information Service (SGIS). Structural variables (aging rate, population growth, accessibility) and socioeconomic vulnerability indicators were analyzed using Spearman correlation, regression, and K-means clustering. Results: Structural variables were not significantly associated with utilization. In contrast, basic livelihood recipients and elderly living alone showed positive associations, whereas population growth showed a negative association. Cluster analysis identified three types, with no significant differences in utilization. Conclusions: These findings suggest that in a super-aged metropolitan setting, utilization is more closely related to socioeconomic vulnerability than to structural factors. Resource allocation for regional health care institutions should prioritize the spatial distribution of vulnerable populations rather than spatial balance.
