Purpose: The national medical care expenditure for the olderly has been shown yearly increases, and it is also implied that the medical care expenditure per one elderly person deffers by prefectures. In this paper, we try to present a basic model which is estimated to construct the prefectural differences of medical care expenditure for the elderly. Method: We analyze the factors of prefectural differences of medical care expenditure per one elderly person by the use of Multiple Regression Analysis, which is a technique of Multivariate Analysis. In additions, Direct Comparison Method (DCM) with the prefectural differences indi- cators is applied to extract the particular factors of HOKKAIDO. Results: We evaluate the performances for various types of Multiple Regression Analysis, and it is indicated that Branch and Bound Method is the most useful technique. Following as the results of Multivariate Analysis, a simple model, which designs the structure of prefectural differences of medical care expenditure per one elderly person, is presented. Characteristics of medical care expenditure in HOKKAIDO are the long Length of Stay and high utilizations of medical facilities.
