- Abstract
In order to scientifically assess the accessibility and equity of urban residents' access to medical care, a time-cost-based accessibility analysis of three classes of medical service facilities was conducted using a Improved Ga2SFCA Method based on four modes of travel for medical care. The results show that the accessibility of the integrated medical service facilities in Changsha city center varies greatly among the four modes of transportation, except for the double-centered pattern in the private car mode of transportation, and the single-centered pattern in all other modes. The degree of variation in the equity of access to healthcare resources by class is more pronounced than the variation in the equity of access by transportation mode. The difference in the comprehensive accessibility of secondary medical service facilities by multiple transportation modes is significantly smaller than that of primary and tertiary medical service facilities, showing a more equitable spatial distribution pattern. Therefore, in the future, on the basis of improving the infrastructure of transportation network, the central city of Changsha should pay more attention to the balance of medical resources allocation of each level.
