Abstract：Objective To analyze the coupling and coordination status between health resource allocation and high-quality economic development in Guangdong Province from 2017 to 2021,and provide reference for improving its coupling and coordination level.Methods Using a coupling coordination degree model,a temporal and spatial analysis was conducted on the coupling coordination between health resource allocation and high quality economic development in Guangdong Province.Results In terms of temporal dimension,the allocation level of health resources in the Pearl River Delta,eastern,western,and northern regions of Guangdong Province remained around 0.333,0.108,0.197,and 0.154,respectively,while the level of high-quality economic development remained around 0.330,0.090,0.102,and 0.096,respectively.In terms of spatial dimensions,the coupling and coordination levels of health resource allocation and high quality economic development in the Pearl River Delta,eastern,western,and northern regions of Guangdong Province were 0.535,0.349,0.329,and 0.308,respectively,showing an overall distribution pattern of"Pearl River Delta＞western Guangdong＞northern Guangdong＞eastern Guangdong",while the coupling and coordination types in each city roughly followed an n-shaped distribution pattern.Conclusion The development level of the two subsystems in Guangdong Province is not completely matched,and the level of coupling and coordination urgently needs to be improved,with regional differences.Health resources should be scientifically and reasonably allocated,and high quality economic development should be accelerated through multiple channels.At the same time,regional cooperation and interconnection should be deepened.
