Título: Unravelling hidden inequities in a universal public long-term care system / Joaquim Vidiella-Martin [et al.]
Descrição física: 11 p.Notas: Sumario: We study the socioeconomic horizontal inequity in the allocation of publicly subsidised long-term care (LTC) in Spain, using administrative data from the universe of applicants in Catalonia. We find that, after controlling for needs, cash subsidies for informal care are disproportionately concentrated among wealthier individuals, while the use of formal care services (home care and nursing homes) is concentrated among the less well-off. This suggests that cash benefits may inadvertently facilitate access to wealthier individuals' private care. We also find inequity in the form of provision, with in-kind services being more prevalent among the worse-off while wealthier beneficiaries are more likely to receive vouchersRegistros relacionados: En: The Journal of the economics of ageing . - Oxford : Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2021-. - 15/10/2024 Volumen 29 - 2024 , 11 p.Materia / lugar / evento: Salud ‌Salud pública ‌Desigualdades sociales ‌Fondos públicos ‌Atención domiciliaria ‌Teleasistencia ‌Outras classificações: 931.2
