Finally, in the case of free treatment, patients' willingness to treat reaches the highest, and the number of people healed per unit time is also the highest, which is the ideal state. In other words, if µ α − =0 , then it has γ=1 . Under the condition that the government provides certain compensation ( µ ≠0 , µ ≫0), if the treatment cost is greater than the government compensation, both high treatment cost and low government compensation will lead to a decrease in µ people's willingness to treat. And the number of people cured within a unit of time will decrease correspondingly, which means when − + → ∞ α µ , γ → 0 . If the government compensation and treatment costs are equal, which is equal to free treatment, people's willingness to treat will also reach the maximum, and this is also an ideal condition. Or − + = α µ 0 leads to γ=1 .
