About

Anja Laschkolnig is a health policy researcher whose work focuses on the economic and strategic dimensions of healthcare systems, particularly the cross-border cooperation and allocation of high-cost medical capital investments. Her most-cited paper, "OP01 Cross Border Cooperation On High-Cost-Capital Investments In Health" (2017, 7 citations), addresses the critical challenge of optimizing the provision and utilization of expensive medical equipment—such as MRI scanners and radiotherapy units—which consume a significant portion of health budgets. Laschkolnig’s research highlights the variability in equipment distribution across regions and advocates for collaborative, cross-border frameworks to improve efficiency and equity. This work is notable for its policy-relevant insights into how countries can share costly resources to reduce waste and enhance patient access. Her contributions are particularly valuable for health economists, policymakers, and public health students seeking to understand the financial and logistical complexities of capital-intensive healthcare investments. Though her citation count is modest, Laschkolnig’s focused scholarship offers a pragmatic lens on a pressing global health issue.
