目的:探究家庭中子女的抚养负担对老年人医疗需求满足水平的影响,为我国制定相关政策以实现健康老龄化提供依据。方法:利用中国家庭追踪调查(CFPS)数据,分别采用OLS和分位数回归,定量研究家庭抚养少儿比对老年人医疗支出的影响。结果:少儿抚养比的系数估计值显著为负,且其绝对值随着分位数的增加呈现上升趋势,这表明抚养子女对老年人医疗支出存在挤出效应,且医疗支出越高,挤出效应越强。结论:抚养子女影响老年人医疗需求的满足水平,尤其是经常患病或患有大病的老年人,其医疗需求更得不到有效满足。
Objective: To explore the impact of raising dependency burden of family children on the level of medical needs satisfaction of the elderly and to provide the basis for our country to formulate relevant policies to achieve healthy aging. Methods: Using the Chinese Family Follow-up Survey (CFPS) data, we used OLS and quantile regression respectively to quantitatively study the impact of family-rearing children over the elderly on medical expenses. Results: The estimated coefficient of dependency ratio of children was significantly negative and its absolute value increased with the increase of quantiles, which indicated that the dependent children had a crowding-out effect on the medical expenditure of the elderly and the higher the medical expenditure was The effect is stronger. CONCLUSIONS: Child rearing affects the level of satisfaction with the medical needs of the elderly, especially those who are frequently or seriously ill, and their medical needs are less effectively met.
