ABSTRACT
Objectives:
To analyze the influencing factors and status of hospital seeking behavior among floating population by focusing on the function of health insurance , and provide evidence to comprehensively promote tiered health care system in China .Methods:
Using data from 2014 National Floating Population Dynamic Monitoring Survey , multivariate logistic regressions were applied to analyze the influencing factors of hospital seeking behavior for inpatient care .Chi-square tests were used to analyze the different proportion of having basic medical insurance reimbursement and reasons for not having it for different hierarchical inpatient care , and T test were used to analyze the ratio of basic medical insurance reimbursement for hospital costs .Results:
The proportion of hospitalization at the county level and below was 56.4%among floating population , the proportion of inflow patients being 51.5%and the rest of the hospital population being counted at a proportion of 37.9%, lower than the corresponding proportion of 72.6%among local res-idents derived from the Fifth National Health Services Survey , but this ratio was 78.9%among registered population . The multivariate logistic regression results indicated that demographic , socio-economic and flow characteristics , hospital location and reasons for hospitalization have significantly affected the migrant inpatients facilities , but health insurance did not significantly influence the hospital seeking behaviors among floating population .Conclusions:
The proportion of hospitalization at the county level and below was low among migrants and this proportion presented great regional differ -ences;and medical insurance didn't play a guiding role in the diversion of the internal floating population .
