The lower the growth rate of per capita medical expenses brought about by non-demographic factors, the better the sustainable operation of the fund.ConclusionShanghai basic medical insurance fund for employees can operate sustainably in the next 15 years, which can further reduce the contribution burden of enterprises, which lays the foundation for improving the basic medical insurance treatment for employees. |
