Integrating development economics and physiology to design comprehensive health strategies Development economics and physiology, at first glance, may seem like incongruent fields. Development economics deals with the economic aspects of development processes in low and middle-income countries, focusing on improving the living standards of people. Physiology, on the other hand, studies the functions and mechanisms occurring within living organisms.

Healthcare economics and human physiology represent two distinct yet deeply interconnected fields that converge to shape the landscape of modern healthcare systems. Economics provides the framework for understanding the allocation of scarce resources within healthcare, and physiology underpins the biological mechanisms that govern human health and disease. The physiologists investigate how different systems, such as the cardiovascular, respiratory, and musculoskeletal systems, function individually and interact with each other. Intricate relationship between healthcare economics and physiology is explicated in the following lines, highlighting the ways in which factors concerning physiology, influence economic outcomes within healthcare systems. One of the most significant…
