Healthcare accessibility is crucial in public medical services, and has become one of center issues of healthcare services. Enabling fair and quick access to healthcare services is of critical importance for all populations, particularly for the elderly people in metropolitan cities. In this paper, the measurements of healthcare accessibility are discussed and indicators at hospital and city levels are proposed. In addition, a case study to assess hospital efficiency using such indicators is presented.
