| Research Abstract |
In health microinsurance, one needs to consider not just risk aversion but also the loss lovingness, because loss lovers do not buy insurance. In our sample, about a half of the subjects have indicated risk aversion and loss lovingness, which are the combination suggested by the prospect theory. From our estimation on the purchase decision of a government health insurance product, it is suggested that people withhold purchase because : 1.They are loss loving that insurance is not attractive(even though they are risk averse), 2.They have limited cash at hand that preclude the timely purchase.
