German term or phrase: (negativer) Preisstruktureffekt
"Preisstruktureffekt" refers to the development of prices in one sector as compared to another-logically it could be translated as "price structure effect" but I have never heard that expression in English and cant find one example of it in the internet. Do others think it would be ok to do the obvious and translate "price structre effect" or is there another English term? An example quotation is below-thanks for all comments and help

Yorick Jenkins

"Die­ser so genannte negative Preisstruktureffekt (der für Dienstleis­tungsbranchen insgesamt typisch ist) lässt sich darauf zurückführen, dass im Gesundheitssektor die Lohnentwicklung ähn­lich verläuft wie in anderen Wirtschaftsbereichen, die Arbeits­produktivität aber vergleichsweise langsamer zunimmt"
