隨著老年人口比例逐年增加、疾病型態的改變,台灣已逐漸進入高齡少子化社會,長期照護成為家庭經濟與社會發展的一個重要議題。由於目前市場銷售的商業長期看護保險價格高昂,並非一般人所能負擔,且台灣目前也僅以社會救助方式及全民健保支應小部分長期照護相關給付,家庭所能負擔的照顧功能日漸勢微,以往由子女照顧年邁父母的情況,已轉變為交由機構照護或是聘請外籍監護工看護,未來老人養護及照護費用將成為社會及家庭沈重的負擔。面對未來大量的長期照護需求實屬不足,因此台灣應儘速建立一完整長期照護體系。 本研究使用問卷調查方式,也同時分析瞭解民眾對長期照護認知之差異情形。進一步探討民眾對於購買商業年金保險的看法,購買商業年金保險在未來可能需要長期照護時有一筆足夠的資金足以支付長期照護的龐大費用,若能透過此方式結合商業年金保險來紓解部份長期照護之財源壓力,便能減輕政府及一般民眾之財源負擔。另一方面,購買商業年金保險可以保障退休生活的品質與財源的所需。
