This book investigates public medical insurance reform in China and
studies its effects from both institutional and empirical study
perspectives. It provides the reader with academic evidence for
understanding the transformation of public medical insurance and
its effect on the utilization of healthcare services, expenditure
for medical care, individuals' financial portfolio allocation, and
well-being. The main content of the book comprises two parts.
First, institutional transformations of public medical insurance
are considered: medical insurance reform in rural and urban China,
and problems of medical insurance reform in the country. Second, it
looks at the impact of public medical insurance reforms in China:
evidence-based on empirical studies, including determinants of
participation in medical insurance, the New Rural Cooperative
Medical Scheme and its effects on the utilization of healthcare
services, medical insurance and its effects on out-of-pocket
expenditure, risky financial market participation, and well-being
in China. This study provides academic evidence about these issues
based on economic theories and econometric methods using many kinds
of nationwide Chinese representative survey data. The book is
highly recommended to readers who are interested in up-to-date and
in-depth empirical studies on the mechanisms of participation in
medical insurance and the impact of public medical insurance
reforms on individuals and household behaviors in China. This
volume will be of interest to those who are interested in the
Chinese economy, social security policymakers, and scholars with an
econometric analysis background.
