Long-term Care Insurance, Labor Market Effects, and Inter-generational Effects in China (draft coming soon)
with Boyan Lu
Abstract: Using a two-way fixed effects difference-in-differences approach and leveraging data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS), this study examines the impact of Long-term Care Insurance (LTCI), particularly on labor market outcomes (e.g., labor supply and entrepreneurship) and intergenerational effects (e.g., intra-family transfers and health status). Our longitudinal data analysis indicates that the implementation of LTCI reduces the labor hours of urban workers with public health insurance by 14.7% and those of employees by 17.3%. Additionally, the reform increases the probability of self-employment among females by 9.4 percentage points, while having no significant effect on males. Furthermore, LTCI coverage only slightly decreases financial transfers to sons and reduces the likelihood of co-residing with children. Finally, the introduction of LTCI improves the health of sons of urban residents. The negative labor market effects observed may stem from the wealth effects of LTCI.
