Mapping variability in allocation of Long-Term Care funds across payer agencies in OECD countries
INTRODUCTION: Long-term care (LTC) is organized in a fragmented manner. Payer agencies (PA) receive LTC funds from the agency collecting funds, and commission services. Yet, distributional equity (DE) across PAs, a precondition to geographical equity of access to LTC, has received limited attention. We conceptualize that LTC systems promote DE when they are designed to set eligibility criteria nationally (vs. locally); and to distribute funds amo…
Older Persons’ Views on Using Cash‐for‐Care Allowances at the Crossroads of Gender, Socio‐economic Status and Care Needs in Vienna
The article aims to contribute to understanding social inequalities resulting from familization (or de‐familization) tendencies among cash‐for‐care beneficiaries in a Conservative welfare state. It highlights justifications for choices in accessing and using care in a cash‐for‐care scheme from the perspective of care recipients aged 80 years and older in Vienna. Along key dimensions characterizing care recipients’ experiences, we identify four di…
Fairness and Eligibility to Long-Term Care
In contrast with the case of health care, distributional fairness of long-term care (LTC) services in Europe has received limited attention. Given the increased relevance of LTC in the social policy agenda it is timely to evaluate the evidence on inequality and horizontal inequity by socio-economic status (SES) in the use of LTC and to identify the socio-economic factors that drive them. We address both aspects and reflect on the sensitivity of i…
Measuring active and healthy ageing in Europe
The active and healthy ageing measure reported here is calculated for the 28 European Union countries, with a specific focus on the current generation of older people and by using the latest data from multiple surveys. It covers diverse aspects of active and healthy ageing, by measuring older people’s contribution with respect to not just employment but also their unpaid familial, social and cultural contributions and their independent, healthy a…
Analysing the importance of older people's resources for the use of home care in a cash-for-care scheme
Older people of lower socioeconomic status (SES) are disproportionately affected by chronic conditions, yet less able to compensate health limitations through use of formal long-term care (LTC) at home, a preferred type of care for most. Some, like older women and single people, are particularly vulnerable. Under the Austrian public cash-for-care scheme, which aims to incentivise care at home and empowerment of LTC users, this study analyses: (i)…
Lessons for regulating informal markets and implications for quality assurance – the case of migrant care workers in Austria
The rising number of private care arrangements in which live-in migrant care workers are engaged as a functional equivalent to family care calls for special attention by policy makers and formal long-term care providers on their implications for quality assurance and professional standards in the long-term care sector. Austria is one of the first countries in Europe where tangible legal measures have been taken to regulate this area under the hea…
Regulating Migrants as a Low-Cost Solution for Long-Term Care
This chapter deals with various aspects and consequences of a gradual regulation of labour in the area of domestic and care services over recent years in Austria. While this development shows some similarities to other coordinated market economies in Europe, it also reveals specific features that may be explained by a particular Austrian pathway to construct 'functional equivalents' to family care in the context of a 'conservative' welfare regime…
