养老服务何去何从——对家庭养老资源的评价与思考

Where Should the Aging Service Go:Evaluation and Thoughts on Family Supporting Resources

养老问题一直是全社会关注的热点话题,而家庭养老资源作为养老保障的重要力量将发挥关键作用。本文基于传统家庭养老及代际经济学的视角,在讨论家庭养老资源功能现状的基础上,建立家庭养老资源的经济学生命周期(LCH)模型,通过模型分析,推断了随着人口流动及家庭结构变迁,家庭养老资源缺位,养老服务面临服务需求膨胀以及资金和资源不足的现实困境下,将出现传统家庭养老生态功能蜕化的必然趋势。文章根据调查数据提出了构建以家庭子女赡养经济补偿为基础、以照护基金为依托,提供商品化、产业化、社会化养老服务的制度构想。

How to care for the aged is always a hot topic concerned by the whole society, and family supporting resources can play a key role as an important force in the pension security. From the perspective of traditional family supporting and intergenerational economics, based on the discussion on the present function of family supporting resources, this paper build a Life Cycle Hypothesis（LCH） model in economics of family supporting resources. Through the analysis with this model, it is inferred that with？the realistic plight of population flowing, changes of family structure, lacking of family supporting resources, expansion of the service demand for the aged, and insufficient funds and resources, a tendency is inevitably coming into being that the ecological function of traditional family supporting the aged will disappear by and by. On the basis of the investigation data, this paper proposes to build a system which is based on economic compensation for family children supporting the aged, relying on caring funds, and providing commercialized, industrialized and socialized service for the aged.
