Social Security is the need of the hour for Developing Countries

Social Security Social security systems ensure the minimum level of living to the needy by public assistance, and they also promote public health and social welfare.

Social Security systems They play three roles : 1) Deal with factors that cause needy circumstances 2) Minimum level of living 3) Promote public health and social welfare.

Social Security in foreign countries United States : Income Security. Funded by tax revenues. The law, however, provides for unemployment insurance, health services, human services with people with disabilities, medical services for the elderly and medical assistance in addition to pension insurance.

Social security in foreign countries France : Sickness insurance and old age insurance. United Kingdom : Income security such as pension and child allowance.

Social Security in India India had an effective, economic and emotional security in joint families, crafts communities and guilds, customs & rites of individuals, and panchayats. However, now the joint family system is breaking to nuclear families thus requiring a new framework for social security.

India being a Social, Democratic Republic it is the duty of the state to provide for social security schemes. A Socialist State is one that accepts the responsibility for providing and ensuring Social security to all its citizens without discrimination.

Social Security in India (contd..) Social Security in India would require a) Minimum employment scheme b) Health insurance c) Maternity insurance d) Pension e) Children’s education f) Life insurance g) General insurance like cattle insurance.

The working population in India can be divided into 1.Organized sector comprising of Government Sector, Public Sector and Private Organized sector 2.Unorganized Sector

The Organized Sector has benefits like Gratuity, PF and pension. Hence does not require subsidy from the Government. The BPL in the Unorganized Sector would require Subsidy from the government. Total Workforce ( ) million - Organized Sector38.93 million - Balance under Unorganized Sector. The total Outlay required for Providing Social Security to the Unorganized Sector would be beyond the budgetary provisions of the Government also.

Hence it is suggested that Social Security be divided into 3 levels 1.A basic level where the State bears Primary responsibility for providing minimum level of Social Security 2.Beneficiary makes a contribution to the cost 3.Schemes that confer additional benefit beyond the basic level

A family which is living Below Poverty Line gets most affected if the breadwinner expires or if somebody in the family has to be hospitalized for some major illness.

LIC realizes its Social Responsibility. It created a Social Security Fund in the year for subsidizing the premium for insurance cover to weaker sections of the Society. As on the size of the fund was crores.

Janashree Bima Yojana was launched on to provide life insurance protection to the rural and urban poor persons below poverty line and marginally above poverty line at low cost. It has an add on benefit in the form of Shiksha Sahayog Yojana where Scholarships are given to the children of the members of Janashree Bima Yojana

Health Care in India The total value of the health sector US$ 34 Billion, 6% of GDP, one of the highest in Asia Of this 15% publicly financed, 4% social insurance, 1% private insurance remaining 80% ---out of pocket as user-fees (75% of which goes to the private sector) 2/3rd users ----out-of-pocket 90% ---- poorest sections Source :NIA Seminar & Insurance news

Health Insurance in India 11 non-life Insurance companies including 4 PSUs regulated by Govt. ( IRDA) 25 licensed TPA’s Total premium recorded as on March 2005: Rs.1300 Cr. ( $ 260 million) Indian Health Insurance Industry grew at the rate of 27% ( last fiscal). Current population covered by some form of health insurance is 12% out of which mediclaim is 1.4 %. How does the Health Insurance Industry looks today Traditional Insurance (Mediclaim)1% ESIS & CGHS3% Railways1% Social /Mandatory Insurance4% NGO/CBHI (Self funded)3% Source :NIA Seminar & Insurance news

Experience Hodgepodge Though the health-care insurance industry was worth Rs.5,000crore in FY00-01, a growth of more than 200% over these years. the lapse ratio has not improved around 25-30% of mediclaim polices lapse in a year. the total number of non-life insurance rejected claim complaints filed, mediclaim accounts for about 65-70% In case of rejected claims, companies need interface with the customer directly instead of the customer having to deal with third party administrator Source :NIA Seminar & Insurance news

Cont… The industry estimates no specific reasons for the non-renewals, Difficulties in making health insurance more accessible to customers the grievances due to large numbers of rejected claims lack of services cause customers to default on payments or switch to other companies Claims in urban areas is 40% higher than semi urban areas As the government provides highly subsidized medical facilities, a majority of the people are not very keen on investing in health care.

Pros & Cons of TPA’s Purpose Electronic maintenance of the enrollment database Arrangement for the Network Hospital for extension of cash less treatment. Issuance of the card Issuance of Authorization for all the admission occurring at the Network Hospital. Claim Processing and Administration services till the settlement. Call Center services through National Toll Free No Generation of periodic MIS on Premiums, Claims and Utilization. Source :NIA Seminar & Insurance news

Results Impersonal dealing with the patients Unnecessary interference felt by doctors on their working ways Incase of claim rejection TPA’s taken to as “the bad man” Nexus between TPA’s and local hospitals Rationalized medical fee structure remained a dream Standard medical practices remained a dream As the cost needed by TPAs for rendering the promised services in the current health infrastructure would be too high to be afforded under the health plans in the market
