題名 全民健保部分負擔制度之研究 作者 連賢明;許績天;陳素秋 貢獻者 國立政治大學公共行政及企業管理教育中心

In order to maintain the financial stability, the Bureau of National Health Insurance (BNHI) raised the co-payment scheme eight times in these 10 years since the inauguration of Taiwan’s National Health Insurance in 1995. For example, the co-payment for an outpatient visit in a medical center is gradually raised to NT$360 from NT$100. By raising the co-payment, the BNHI hopes to increase the premium on the one hand and eliminates the inefficiency arising from moral hazard problems on the other hand. Nonetheless, the increase casts a lot of doubts because the co-payment might be detrimental to the health equality and accessibility of medical care. To what extent the health inequality is affected, however, depends on the corresponding price elasticity of health care. Because the policy adjustment applies to all individuals in Taiwan, we can only evaluate those price effects by comparing prior and after the change of co-payments. However, this kind of comparison is likely to introduce endogenous bias since we have only “treatment groups”. To attenuate the bias, this project evaluates the price effects through three dimensions. First, we investigate the change of health care utilization patterns using the panel data consisting of 5% or 1 million NHI enrollees in the past ten years. This data can be used to investigate the long term pattern for varies medical treatments and patients with different ages. Secondly, in order to solve the selection biases, we match match patients of treatment groups with that in one million random sample using propensity score matching. We then use patients in “quasi-control group”(from PSM) and “treatment group” and estimate the price elasticity by difference-in-difference (DID) method. Lastly, in order to separate the effects due to the different co-payment charged by hospitals of different accreditations, the Logit model and nested Logit model will be used to control for the potential influences on estimations.關聯 基礎研究
