What is the effect of long-term care insurance after 7 years of pilot, covering 49 pilot cities? Official response
Beijing, China, September 23 (Reporter Lei Yan) "By the end of June 2023, the number of people participating in the long-term care insurance system was about 170 million, with a total of more than 2 million people, and the accumulated expenditure fund for the benefits enjoyed was about 65 billion yuan." At the press conference of the National Medical Insurance Bureau held on the 22nd, Fu Chaoqi, deputy director of the Office of the National Medical Insurance Bureau, introduced that long-term care insurance is a major institutional arrangement to make up the shortcomings of the social security system.
Fu Chaoqi said that the establishment of long-term care insurance is a major decision-making arrangement to actively respond to the aging population, in order to properly solve the problem of long-term care for disabled people. The National Medical Insurance Bureau strengthened the top-level design of the system, improved policies and measures, solidly promoted the pilot of the long-term care insurance system, and steadily and orderly expanded the pilot to 49 cities.
At present, the pilot work is progressing smoothly and has achieved phased goals.
Fu Chaoqi said: First, it has effectively reduced the family burden and transaction burden of disabled people, with an annual per capita burden reduction of about 14,000 yuan. The second is to promote the development of the service system. There are more than 7,600 designated service institutions for long-term care insurance in the pilot areas, which is five times that of the initial pilot in 2017. The third is to broaden the employment channels. The number of nursing staff in designated service institutions in the pilot area reached 330,000, 10 times that in the early stage of the pilot in 2017.
The National Health Insurance Bureau will systematically plan the top-level design of the long-term care insurance system, promote the system construction as a whole, and promote the establishment of institutional arrangements to solve the problem of long-term care security for disabled people as soon as possible.
On the one hand, it is necessary to step up research on the top-level design of long-term care insurance system to adapt to China’s economic development level and aging development trend, establish the overall goal and long-term planning of system construction, unify the system framework and policy standards, and standardize management and operation.
On the other hand, it is necessary to study the supporting measures of disability rating assessment management, service organization management, long-term care teacher training and so on to support the long-term care insurance system.
