Research on How the Digital Economy Contributes to Achieving A High-Level and Balanced Development of the Elderly Care Service Industry

China's aging population has gained significant attention.Population aging implies that the demand for elderly care services will be on the rise.However,China's aging exhibits a notable characteristic of getting old prior to achieving affluence,which directly constrains the enhancement of the level of elderly care services.The Communist Party of China and the government attach considerable importance to the issue of population aging and pensions.The Third Plenary Session of the 20th CPC Central Committee adopted the Decision of the CPC Central Committee on Further Comprehensively Deepening Reform and Promoting Chinese-Style Modernization,emphasizing that“we should actively respond to population aging and improve the development of elderly care and elderly care industry policy mechanisms.”Regarding the supply of pension services,due to the professional and long-term nature of pension services,the supply cost remains high.The contradiction between the low level of demand and the high cost of supply might lead to the“low-level equilibrium trap”of the elderly service industry.The digital economy has achieved remarkable effects in promoting the elderly care service industry.It has played a vital role in optimizing the allocation of elderly care resources,reducing the cost of elderly care services,and creating a superior elderly care ecosystem.In this context,it holds considerable academic value and practical significance to study the impact of the digital economy on the development of pension service industry,to analyze the digital divide and bridge the path for the development of the pension service industry,and to explore the countermeasures and ideas of the digital economy to facilitate the highlevel,balanced,and high-quality development of the pension service industry.

Socialized care services for the aged population:System construction and support measures

Given the aging society,an increase in social demand,information-and communication technology-driven culture,and government policy support emerges to enable the development of the socialized care services system for the aged(SCSSA).The development of the SCSSA would be a significant step toward addressing China’s aging population.However,the construction of the SCSSA challenges the theories and methods of traditional elderly care service system construction.Specifically,the implementation path for such elderly care service policies is unclear,the necessary technological support is insufficient,and the mechanism for integrating intelligent information technology remains underexplored.Thus,this paper focuses on the needs of the elderly,grounded in the context of the changing elderly care service policies in China,and proposes a research paradigm that integrates system construction and support measure embedding.We then construct the original SCSSA,which includes“material+spirit+medical treatment+healthcare”and propose a method of optimization and iteration.Finally,we build the research framework of systematic support measures from the perspectives of policy reconstruction,institutional embeddedness,and technical support.Our work provides theoretical support and practical guidance for the construction and dynamic optimization of the SCSSA,thus making a significant contribution that will help China effectively cope with its aging society.

Community-based elderly care services in China: an analysis based on the 2018 wave of the CLHLS Survey

Community-based elderly care services play an important role in dealing with popu-lation aging.Based data from the 2018 wave of the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey,we found that overall there was high demand for community-based elderly care services,but insufficient supply,resulting in unmet needs.The greatest demand was for medical care and nursing services and these were gener-ally more accessible compared to other services.The imbalance between available supply and elderly demand was greatest for personal care and psychological con-sulting services.Additionally,there were obvious imbalances of supply and demand for particular groups of the elderly population.In terms of demand,the young-old living in eastern and western China or urban areas had stronger demand for com-munity-based elderly care services.Elderly people with serious disabilities or low income,or living in rural areas and towns had more demand for home visit medical services,while the elderly with the ability to care for themselves or high incomes needed more social and entertainment services.With respect to inadequate supply,the demands for community-based elderly care services of the low-income elderly living in rural areas and towns or in western China were more likely to be unmet.Our results indicated that appropriate services should be provided by government agencies and institutions to meet the needs of various groups.It is also important to increase accessibility to community-based elderly care services as well as to guaran-tee an equitable distribution of supply.
