Abstract:
To cope with the increasing burden of disability care brought about by global aging, various countries have established long-term care insurance systems based on their national conditions. Germany and Japan have successively established a socialized long-term care insurance system and continuously improved the system through a series of reforms, providing a blueprint for long-term care insurance reform in other countries. This article reviews the reforms in Germany and Japan in updating evaluation tools, improving grading standards and service content, and enhancing institutional fairness, so as to provide reference for perfecting China's long-term care insurance system.
