长期照护筹资中的财政支持研究

Research on Financial Support in Financing of Long-term Care

近年来,人口老龄化速度不断加快,失能半失能老年人口所占比重不断攀升,长期照护易由家庭风险演变为社会风险,政府需要在长期照护服务体系构建中发挥主导作用。目前,老年人长期照护服务制度中的突出矛盾更多地源自于老年人经济来源有限所导致的支付能力不足问题。政府在长期照护服务中的经济责任体现为:对"双困"老人实行照护社会救助,构建长期照护多元化的筹资机制,并促进长期照护服务市场的发展。从理论与实践两个角度展开分析与研究,分阶段逐步实现长期照护保障制度体系的建设。

Since China entered the aging society in 1999, the aging of the population has been accelerating and the proportion of the disabled and semi-disabled elderly population has been increasing. Long-term care has evolved from family risk to social risk, and the government needs to play a leading role in the construction of long-term care service system. The economic responsibility of the Chinese government in long-term care service is reflected in the following aspects: implementing social assistance for the elderly in“double poverty”, constructing diversified financing mechanism for long-term care, and promoting the development of long-term care service market. This study analyzes this problem from both theoretical and practical perspectives, and puts forward the basic idea of realizing the construction of long-term care system step by step.
