Abstract

Long-term care insurance is a necessary institutional arrangement in the promotion of active aging policy in our country, which has a positive effect on the country, society and family. However, in the pilot process, there are still problems such as narrow coverage, poor sustainability of financing, inconsistent evaluation standards, and weak nursing service ability. In order to ensure that the system can be successfully promoted, this study takes capital, object, standard, supply as the core elements of China's long-term care insurance. According to its role in the system promotion process, the operation mechanism of China's long-term care insurance was designed, that is, the establishment of a national unified independent financing channel and mechanism; Expand the scope of insurance, clarify the object of payment, and formulate the evaluation standard scientifically; We will define the main suppliers and make services more flexible.
