tailieunhanh - Impact of national health insurance for the poor and the informal sector in low- and middle-income countries

If you already have health problems that are likely to mean you will need long-term care (for example, Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s disease), you probably won’t be able to buy a policy. Insurance companies have medical underwriting standards to keep the cost of long-term care insurance affordable. Without such standards, most people would not buy coverage until they needed long-term care services. Some states have a regulation requiring the insurance company and the agent to go through a worksheet with you to decide if long-term care insurance is right for you. The worksheet describes the premium for the policy you’re thinking about buying and asks you questions about the source. | Systematic review Impact of national health insurance for the poor and the informal sector in low- and middle-income countries by Arnab Acharya Sukumar Vellakkal Fiona Taylor Edoardo Masset Ambika Satija Margaret Burke Shah Ebrahim July 2012 The authors are part of London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine Public Health Foundation of India Institute of Development Studies and University of Bristol and were supported by the Evidence for Policy and Practice Information and Co-ordinating Centre EPPI-Centre .
