    • For 1975-1995 and 1985-1995 the rate of change of health care expenditures on the aged was decomposed into (1) change in the age/sex-specific expenditures per person; (2) change in the number of elderly persons; and (3) change in the age distribution of the elderly. For both time periods the rate of change of age-specific expenditures was more than double the sum of the demographic effects. Fuchs, "Provide, Provide."
