Aim  This study examines the use of the medical risk/resource ratio ( RRR ) and need for medical resources ( NMR ) as new indicators of the imbalance in medical demand and supply in disasters. These indicators are used to quantify the medical demand–supply imbalance per disaster base hospital, examine the demand–supply imbalance in the region, and verify the need for medical support.    Methods  We calculated the  RRR  of each disaster base hospital by dividing the revised estimate of the number of patients with the number of empty beds. We calculated the required number of hospital beds as the  NMR  to restore the  RRR  of each disaster base hospital to two. The  RRR  and  NMR  were combined, and prioritization for medical support was classified into three levels.    Results  The median  RRR  was 23 (range, 1–101), and the median  NMR  was 943 (range, 0–2,124). Fifteen hospitals had a medical support priority of 1, five hospitals had a priority of 2, and 13 hospitals had a priority of 3.    Conclusion  The medical demand–supply imbalance and amount of medical support needed can be quantified using  RRR  and  NMR , which allows examination of the priority level for medical support.
