| Research Abstract |
In Japan before the inauguration of the Long-term care Insurace Law the Government provided long-term care free of charge, with limited accessibility and amount of services. Private services are expensive and difficult for most of the people to buy. The Law solved the problem by providing money to buy care services. Effective provision of service, however, is anther matter. The Insurace gives us just money, care service industry provides services.
The research revealed that long-term care is provided under competition between public and private sectors. We've had a hypothesis that public and private providers have different roles in the market. Private enterprises supply standard services ; public sectors special services for complicated and tough cases which are often difficult to be treated on a market basis. Actually, private companies launched 24-hour care service and other kind of difficult services to survive the competition. The situation is more apparent in smaller cities with lass demand for the services. When demand increases more, the situation will change, and the problem may be solved.
Demand for institutional care is increasing more than residential care. Of the total expense of the Insurance nearly 80% is payment for institutional care including day care and short stay services. The government boasted advocacy of the family care. In fact, the Institutional care will be more needed, and cooperation between residential and institutional cares will be more important. We will study small complex institutions which have both residential and institutional services.
