Objective

To understand the impact and effect value of basic medical insurance on the health status of children in China, and to propose corresponding countermeasures and suggestions.

Methods

Based on the data from the Chinese Family Panel Studies in 2016 and 2020, this study examined the extent to which basic medical insurance impacts children’s health using the Propensity-Score-Matching and Difference-in-Difference models.

Results

The findings indicated that basic medical insurance could promote the health status of children by 4.9%(β=0.049,SE=0.028). However, the mediating effects of reducing health costs and improving health service utilization were found to be insignificant. Moreover, the study revealed that the health status of preschool children, girls, rural areas, western regions, and low-income families can be improved by 9.1%(β=0.091,SE=0.038), 7.8%(β=0.078,SE=0.043), 9.3%(β=0.093,SE=0.041), 12.0%(β=0.120,SE=0.051), and 9.3%(β=0.093,SE=0.055) respectively.

Conclusion

This study concludes that basic medical insurance plays a positive role in enhancing children’s health. Therefore, it is crucial to continuously strengthen the basic medical insurance system and reinforce the multi-tiered healthcare security framework. Attention should also be given to ensuring fairness for girls and children in rural and western areas, in order to fully protect children’s health.
