Reform of the Public Long-Term Care System in an Overlapping Generation Model with Endogenous Fertility
利用内生生育率重叠世代模型,研究日本公共长期照护体系减轻照护负担对人口增长、物质资本、家庭照护质量、服务价格与质量以及社会福利的影响。
The role of Japan's public long-term care system, which lightens the monetary burden of people in need of care, is more important than ever, given the country's aging society and trend toward nuclear families. Using an overlapping generation model with endogenous fertility, this study examines how such financial relief for users of the public long-term care system affects population growth, physical capital, quality of family care, price and quality of services supplied by care service providers, and social welfare.
