“…We also found a link between participation rates and the age of rural residents. Based on China Labor‐Force Dynamics Survey in 2014 (Wang, Zhou and Liu, 2017), the participation rate for those aged 15–22 is under 20 per cent. The participation rate increases gradually with age.…”

China’s pension reform during the past three decades has allowed a majority of China’s population to be covered by a pension scheme. Of particular note has been the New Rural Pension Scheme (NRPS), a voluntary programme introduced starting in 2009. One goal of our analysis is to assess that pension scheme, using a variety of sources of information including data drawn from recent (2013 and 2015) nationwide China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Surveys (CHARLS). Our analysis involves an exploration of differences between the generosity and structure of the NRPS and other pension schemes currently in place. We also explore the feasibility of reforming the current “quasi‐social pension” component of the NRPS by substituting a universal non‐contributory social pension pillar. In connection with our assessment of the NRPS, we note the unusually low benefit levels for rural China.

“…The administrative district, community and household samples were selected by probability-proportional-to-size sampling with the population size, administrative units and socioeconomic status serving as the main stratification variables. All family members aged 16–64 years and those aged 65 years or above with a job were interviewed 31. Data were collected in July 2016 and the quality control was conducted during the data collection aided by computer-assisted personal interviewing technology.…”

ObjectivesWe aimed to analyse the healthcare seeking behaviours (HSB) of populations with different migration status and examine the relationship between migration status and HSB.DesignA secondary analysis of cross-sectional data of China Labor-force Dynamics Survey wave 2016, which was conducted by the Sun Yat-sen University every 2 years since 2010.Setting29 provinces/cities/autonomous regions in mainland China, excluding Tibet and Hainan province.Participants3522 respondents in a condition in the previous 2 weeks or during the last 12 months were analysed.Main outcome measuresThe migration status included internal migrants (IMs), returned population, rural residents and urban residents. The HSB including health services utilisation and choice of health facilities for their health services. Multivariable logistic regressions were used to examine the association between migration status and HSB.Results2193 and 1898 of 3522 respondents were in need of outpatient services (having a condition in the previous 2 weeks) or inpatient services (being asked to use the inpatient services during the last 12 months). Compared with urban residents, the returned population (OR=0.66, 95% CIs 0.49 to 0.89) and rural residents (OR=0.65, 95% CIs 0.51 to 0.82) were less likely to have an unmet need for outpatient services. The latter tended to choose lower-level hospitals, while the IMs preferred the lowest-level healthcare facilities for health services. After controlling for confounding factors, the results above did not reach any statistical significance.ConclusionAssociation between migration status and HSB might be through enabling resource and needs. Returned population, IMs and rural residents tended to choose low-level hospitals for their health service needs, but this association was mainly associated with their poorer social and economic resources. Improving their social and economic resources would be helpful for reducing the barriers of HSB.

“…The data was drawn from the China Labor-force Dynamics Survey (CLDS) conducted in 2014. CLDS is an open-access database and the rst national longitudinal social survey targeted at the labor force in China, covering a series of topics, such as demographic characteristics, family, education, employment, work history, income, migration, and health (http://css.sysu.edu.cn/) [28,29]. A multistage strati ed cluster random sampling method was used, and the subjects of CLDS are the laborers (all family members aged 15-64) randomly selected from 29 provinces in China.…”

Background Doing “more” in healthcare can be a major threat to the delivery of high-quality health care. It is important to identify the supplier-induced demand (SID) of health care. This study aims to test SID hypothesis by comparing health care utilization among patients affiliated with healthcare professionals and their counterpart patients not affiliated with healthcare professionals. Methods Using cross-sectional data of the China Labour-force Dynamics Survey (CLDS) implemented in 2014, we identified 806 patients affiliated with healthcare professionals and 22788 patients not affiliated with healthcare professionals. We used the coarsened exact matching method to control for confounding factors. The main outcomes were outpatient rate and expenditure as well as inpatient rate and expenditure. Results The matched outpatient rate of patients not affiliated with healthcare professionals was 0.6% higher (P=0.754) than that of their counterparts, and the matched inpatient rate was 1.1% lower (P=0.167). Patients not affiliated with healthcare professionals paid significantly more (680 CNY, P<0.001) than their counterparts did per outpatient visit (1126 CNY [95% CI 885-1368] vs. 446 CNY [95% CI 248-643]), while patients not affiliated with healthcare professionals paid insignificantly less (2061 CNY, P=0.751) than their counterparts did per inpatient visit (15583 CNY [95% CI 12052-19115] vs. 17645 CNY [95% CI 4884-30406]). Conclusion Our results lend support on supplier-induced demand hypothesis and highlight the need for policies to address the large outpatient care expenses of patients not affiliated with healthcare professionals. Our study also suggests that as the public becomes more informed, the demand of health care may persist while heath care expenditure per outpatient visit may decrease sharply due to the decline in supplier-induced demand. As significant misbehaviors performed by providers, it’s important to create right incentives to offer less avoidable healthcare service during outpatient visits may work to reduce healthcare costs.
