Notes:
The objective of this article is to see whether or not the attainment of regional equity within the hospital sector has involved any sacrifice in hospital performance.1 For most health services providing medical care free of charge, regional equity is usually an important objective; but when doctors decide who gets into hospital and for how long regional equity may be difficult to achieve in practice. We look at certain indicators of hospital inpatient performance in relation to regional equity within the hospital sector in both England and Wales and Czechoslovakia. The comparison with Czechoslovakia is an interesting one because that country is as much concerned with regional equity in its hospital service as is the United Kingdom (UK). At the same time there have been substantial differences between the two countries in the availability of hospital resources.
