Tóm tắt :

iv, 26 p. This brief aims to improve our understanding of how population ageing affects the financial sustainability of health systems, focusing on its likely impact on affordable access to health care (financial protection). It uses the Population Ageing Financial Sustainability Gap for Health Systems (PASH) Simulator to forecast the impact of population ageing on health system revenue and spending between now and 2060 to estimate the likely size of the ageing-related health financing gap in selected countries in Europe (Bulgaria, Italy, Slovakia, Slovenia and Spain). It then simulates the impact of filling this gap through out-of-pocket payments on the incidence of impoverishing and catastrophic health spending – two key indicators of affordable access to health care – and discusses the policy implications for countries in Europe and beyond.
