1. Overview

 

Commercial health insurance ushers in development opportunities

 

As  the economy is continuing to grow, the living standards are rising steadily and the aging population are increasing rapidly,  the demand for medical and health care is greatly stimulated in the whole society, which results in an annual growth of total health costs at a rate of more than 10% in China. The basic medical insurance payment system can no longer meet the diversified health needs. In order to make full use of limited resources to obtain greater health benefits, the central and local governments have introduced a number of policies on the reform of medical care, medical insurance and pharmaceutical industry, and the trend of differentiated development between the universal basic medical and health insurance system and the commercial health insurance system to meet diversified needs has gradually emerged. As an important supplement to the basic medical insurance and to meet the diversified healthcare needs of the public, commercial health insurance will have an unprecedented opportunity for innovation and development.

 

In a series of documents such as "Healthy China 2030" Blueprint and "Deepening the Reform of the Medical Security System", the State Council has stressed the requirements of promoting the development of commercial health insurance and of a multi-level medical security system to reshape the development trend of commercial health insurance. Medical science and technology innovation achievements provide strong support for breaking through the bottleneck of commercial health insurance development. International experience shows that commercial health insurance plays an important role in the universal medical security system; commercial health insurance should be actively involved in public health insurance; the layout and integration of the big health industry can be achieved through cross-border investment and strategic cooperation; insurance companies should provide comprehensive health services for customers with the business philosophy of health promotion, and commercial health insurance needs to integrate with health care.

 

Effective integration of commercial health insurance and health management is the key

 

In recent years, the disease spectrum of Chinese residents has changed greatly, and chronic diseases caused by unhealthy lifestyles have become the most important disease burden. As an important intervention tool, health management is highly effective at input and output. The establishment of an innovative mechanism of "health insurance + health management" driven by commercial health insurance has become the future development direction, which will greatly facilitate the shift from disease-centered to health-centered. On the one hand, it will provide healthy life services for healthy people, such as health check-ups, health consultation, health promotion and disease prevention, so as to develop a healthy lifestyle and improve health. On the other hand, it will provide chronic disease management, medical services and rehabilitation services for the sick, so as to control disease development, improve treatment effect, shorten disease duration, promote rehabilitation and improve the quality of life.

 

Establishing "Innovation Center for Health Insurance and Health Management"

 

The Global Health Forum (GHF) of Boao Forum for Asia aims to build a platform for exchange between government, business, industry, academia and research, and promote the development of international health, with rich resources of close connection with government, finance and insurance, pharmaceutical industry and experts and scholars, as well as the advantages of serving cross-border cooperation among all parties. In order to respond to the current development hotspots in China's health field, to accelerate the transformation from medical-centered to health-centered, and to work out the solution to breaking through the bottleneck of the integration and coordinated development of commercial insurance and health management, Global Health Forum has established the " Innovation Center for Health Insurance and Health Management ". Focusing on policy discussion, strategic analysis, government-enterprise interaction, professional communication between commercial insurance and medicine, medical equipment and health management, the Innovation Center strives for exploring new models of supply and demand for big health, launching specific projects and activities, and establishing horizontal collaboration and communication with innovation centers in other fields.
