1 Long-term care financing
- the case of Poland First of all I would like to thnak the organizers for invitation to seminar. It is very important to me to participate in economics discussion about social protection within LTC as in Poland this discussion has already started (in my knowledge (zgodnie z moją wiedzą) it has started in 2005 when former Minister of Health sellted the group of experts whose aim was to perpare the LTC law. But in My opinion the economic discussion hasn’t been started yet, as there are only a few people interested in that field of research. I think that the green book and the research made by World Bank would be the starting point in discussion what range and quality of LTC we can afford. I’m here thanks to project financed from Human Capital sector Dr Barbara Więckowska Social Insurance Department Warsaw School of Economics Long-term care in Europe – discussing trends and relevant issues Budapest, February 2010

I would say to the incease of households safety in the field of LTC. We could identify the body and its parts koncepcyjnie wyodrębniona całość, której części powinny współprzyczyniać się do realizacji jego misji (celu), rozumianej jako poprawa stanu zdrowia populacji (optymalizacja efektu zdrowotnego)

30 Scenario 1 - assumes that real expenditures per beneficiary continue to grow at the average rate over the last three years. Scenario 2, on the other hand, represents to opposite extreme, assuming that real expenditures per beneficiary stay constant at 2008 levels for in-kind benefits. For cash benefits, Scenario 2 assumes a moderate annual increase of 20 percent of GDP per capita growth. Scenario 3 therefore assumes that real expenditures per beneficiary for the different types of benefits will grow at the same rate as real GDP per capita

37 the policy responses fall into three categories:
securing financing of future LTC expenditures, controlling demand for LTC services controlling costs of publicly provided LTC services and cash benefits. Risk-pooling is essential to avoid old-age poverty Private LTC insurance has not been very successful Market failures (adverse selection, risk selection) Unpredictability of costs lead to high mark-ups Large role for public sector Tax-financed (cash benefits, social assistance) Contribution financed (social security) Both are pay-as-you-go mechanisms Who will pay? Age eligibility leads to large cost increases Base eligibility on need, not on age Unified, scaled needs assessment Consolidate funding across ZUS, KRUS, social assistance
