Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the benefit incidence and evaluate the implementation effects on catastrophic disease insurance under the New Rural Cooperative Medical System ( NRCMS) in Jilin Province and put forward sug-gestions to perfect the catastrophic disease insurance under NRCMS. Method: In-depth interviews with related staff were conducted to gain an understanding of the operating status of catastrophic disease insurance under NRCMS;cat-astrophic disease patient data of Jilin Province from 2013 were collected, with a comparative analysis of implementa-tion effects among nine districts;the benefit incidence was analyzed by means of the Sperman rank correlation analy-sis; Results: The policy of catastrophic disease insurance under the NRCMS exhibited sound implementation effects and played an important role in reducing the economic burden of catastrophic disease patients. The average individual expenditure decreased by 4336. 52 yuan, while the reimbursement rate increased by 11. 15% after NRCMS cata-strophic disease insurance reimbursements. Additionally, statistical analysis results showed that there was a weak cor-relation between benefit incidence and economic level, the benefit equality of catastrophic disease insurance under NRCMS was relatively good, but the benefit level of rich patients was slightly higher. Conclusion:The reimbursement scheme of catastrophic disease insurance under NRCMS should be refined and improved, and the benefit fairness of different districts must be ensured, thus achieving the goal of relieving the“poverty caused by illness” phenomenon.
