目的: 分析我国商业健康保险参保对家庭贫困发生率的影响及其异质性。方法: 利用2018年CHARLS数据,通过Logistic和PSM模型进行分析。结果: 商业健康保险参保可使家庭绝对和相对贫困发生率分别降低6.2和8.9个百分点。运用PSM控制样本选择性偏误后,家庭绝对和相对贫困发生率显著降低7.4和8.8个百分点。商业健康保险参保可使农村家庭组、老年家庭组、健康一般家庭组绝对贫困发生率分别下降8.2、13.3、8.9个百分点,相对贫困发生率分别下降12.0、15.6、12.7个百分点,可使得健康较差家庭组绝对贫困发生率显著下降16.1个百分点,对其他样本组影响不显著。结论: 我国商业健康保险覆盖率较低,商业健康保险参保能够显著降低家庭贫困发生率,研究结果具有稳健性。商业健康保险参保对家庭贫困发生率的影响存在城乡家庭组、不同年龄家庭组和不同自评健康家庭组差异,具有很强的异质性。建议: 扩大商业健康保险覆盖面,加强对农村地区、老年家庭、户主自评健康状况较差家庭的商业健康保险参保支持力度,更大发挥商业健康保险的反贫困功能。
Abstract
Objective: The paper analyzes the effect and heterogeneity of commercial health insurance participation on the incidence of household poverty in China. Methods: The paper uses the data of China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study in 2018, based on Logistic and propensity score matching (PSM) models. Results: Participation in commercial health insurance can reduce the incidence of absolute and relative household poverty by 6.2 and 8.9 percentage points, respectively. Using PSM to control for sample selectivity bias, the incidence of absolute and relative poverty was significantly reduced by 7.4 and 8.8 percentage points. The participation of commercial health insurance can reduce the incidence of absolute poverty in rural family groups, elderly family groups and the family groups with general health by 8.2, 13.3 and 8.9 percentage points respectively, the incidence of relative poverty dropped by 12.0, 15.6 and 12.7 percentage points respectively, also it can significantly reduce the incidence of absolute poverty of the family groups with poor health by 16.1 percentage points. The effect on other sample groups was not significant. Conclusion: The coverage rate of commercial health insurance is low in China. Participation in commercial health insurance can significantly reduce the incidence of household poverty. The results are robust. The effects of commercial health insurance on the incidence of household poverty are different among urban and rural family groups, family groups with different ages and family groups with different self-rated health status, which has strong heterogeneity. Suggestions: The coverage of commercial health insurance should be expanded. The support for the participation of commercial health insurance in rural areas, elderly families, and families with poor self-rated health status should be strengthened to give full play to the anti-poverty function of commercial health insurance.
