Long term care and social security in india

Abstract

Long term care spending has highest growth in various functions via health expenditures and types of services available and is expected to grow with coming years. A significant share is given by government or compulsory insurance schemes for long term care. LTC spending is the first policy issue for OECD countries. The paper upholds the analysis made by OECD countries for extending country coverage and improving methodology for future developments in LTC and health. In addition, the paper will also project the expenditure and scope for LTC in BRIICS (Brazil, Russia, India, Indonesia, China and South Africa) countries. The paper will differentiate between health and LTC expenditure and demographic and non- demographic drivers for each study.
