Evaluation Of The Effectiveness Of The Implementation Of Long-Term Care Insurance Policy In Y City,Jiangsu Province

With the increasing abundance of social resources,the rising economic level,the continuous development of medical technology and the increasing average life expectancy of human beings,the social problem of an ageing population has become prominent,and at the same time the number of disabled people is growing year by year.The traditional family-based care model in China is no longer able to meet the growing demand for care due to the limitations of personal energy,income distribution and expertise.In response,the Chinese government has issued guidelines in recent years to promote the establishment of a sound multi-level long-term care insurance policy,which has accelerated the development of long-term care insurance in China and provided guidance and a basis for legitimacy for governments at all levels.In response to the policy call and the ageing of the urban population,the city implemented a long-term care insurance policy in 2019 with a view to addressing the issue of long-term care for the disabled in the city.The policy has been in operation for more than three years now,and its implementation effects are of great research value for the subsequent promotion and application of the policy.Therefore,this paper adopts literature survey,policy text analysis and other research methods to study the current situation of the operation of long-term care insurance policy in Y.Based on William Dunn’s policy evaluation criteria theory,the index system model for evaluating the effectiveness of long-term care insurance policy is constructed,and experts are invited to rate and apply the hierarchical analysis method to derive the weights of indicators at each level.The results of the policy evaluation were collected using a questionnaire survey and analysed using the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method,resulting in the evaluation of the effectiveness of the implementation of the long-term care insurance policy in Y as "good".While the overall satisfaction of the policy’s demand side is high and the political benefits of its implementation are obvious,it is also found that the awareness of the policy,the protection treatment and the homogeneity of the evaluation need to be improved.Four recommendations were made to address these issues.Secondly,the coverage of the policy should be expanded,mainly by increasing the coverage of participants and improving the fairness of the assessment criteria.Third,refine the policy’s treatment guarantee.The fourth is to promote the construction of care and maintenance communities and encourage the industrialisation of care services.Finally,based on the analysis of the limitations of this study,two research outlooks are proposed,firstly,a study on the interaction and synergistic development of long-term care insurance and medical insurance,and secondly,a study on the correlation between the long-term development of long-term care policies and the release and creation of new labour force growth values.
