Developing Commercial Health Insurance During the 14th Five-Year Plan Period

Developing Commercial Health Insurance During the 14th Five-Year Plan Period Synopsis

This book analyses the role of commercial health insurance in China during the 14th Five-Year Plan period.

Including case studies and the results of large-scale surveys, the book examines the changes in the nature of the demand for commercial insurance, and how the development of it could proceed in an integrated way with further development of the pharmaceutical industry, medical services and health management services. It goes on to quantify the impact of commercial insurance on medical safeguards and economic growth.

Utilising international comparisons and large-scale surveys to reveal both the demand and supply of commercial health insurance in China, this book will be a valuable resource for students and scholars of Asian and Chinese healthcare, insurance and economics.
