“…Three studies examined people’s preferences for LTC facilities or nursing homes by means of a DCE (Milte et al 2018b ; Sawamura et al 2015 ; Song et al 2020 ). In an Australian study by Milte et al 2018b , residents of nursing homes as well as family members as proxies were surveyed; the study focused on food preferences.…”

“…Respondents with personal caregiving experience showed significantly greater preference for the availability of individual choice of daily schedule and meals. In the Chinese study by Song et al ( 2020 ), older adults with the intention or willingness to live in a nursing home were asked to choose either between nursing homes A and B or neither of the options. The most important attributes for respondents were “location” and “care service”.…”

In the design of long-term care systems, preferences can serve as an essential indication to better tailor services to the needs, wishes and expectations of its consumers. The aim of this systematic review was to summarize and synthesize available evidence on long-term care preferences that have been elicited by quantitative stated-preference methods. The databases PubMed and Web of Science were searched for the period 2000 to 2020 with an extensive set of search terms. Two independent researchers judged the eligibility of studies. The final number of included studies was 66, conducted in 19 different countries. Studies were systematized according to their content focus as well as the survey method used. Irrespective of the heterogeneity of studies with respect to research focus, study population, sample size and study design, some consistent findings emerged. When presented with a set of long-term care options, the majority of study participants preferred to “age in place” and make use of informal or home-based care. With increasing severity of physical and cognitive impairments, preferences shifted toward the exclusive use of formal care. Next to the severity of care needs, the influence on preferences of a range of other independent variables such as income, family status and education were tested; however, none showed consistent effects across all studies. The inclusion of choice-based elicitation techniques provides an impression of how studies operationalized long-term care and measured preferences. Future research should investigate how preferences might change over time and generations as well as people’s willingness and realistic capabilities of providing care.

As the capital city of Hebei Province in China, Shijiazhuang faces the problem in the aging of the population that has never been occurred before. In order to optimize the allocation of pension service resources in Shijiazhuang city, it is very important to explore the spatial characteristics and influencing factors of the pension service institutions. In this paper, based on data of Shijiazhuang pension service institutions and Shijiazhuang Statistical Yearbook, ArcGIS and SPSS software was used to analyze the spatial characteristics and influencing factors of the pension service institutions in Shijiazhuang. The results showed that: ① The number of pension service institutions in northwest of Shijiazhuang was fewer than that in southeast, but the direction was not obvious. ② The pension service institutions in Shijiazhuang formed a multi-center cluster distribution pattern in the whole city, and the cluster centers were mostly located in urban areas. The high-value agglomerations areas were located in Changan, Zhengding and Gaocheng of Shijiazhuang under the condition of the significance level α = 0.05. ③ The accessibility of pension service institutions in Shijiazhuang was relatively high in general. Most of pension institutions were located within the 15-minute isochronous circle, and the pension service institutions accessibility presented a spatial pattern of gradually decreasing from the middle to the surrounding areas. ④ Correlation analysis indicated that the number of resident population, elderly population, GDP, public financial expenditure and accessibility were the main factors affecting the distribution characteristics of pension service institutions in Shijiazhuang under the condition of the significance level α = 0.05. It showed that the number of regional pension institutions had great dependence on population and economic development level. Realizing the spatial equilibrium allocation of pension service institutions was difficult by simply using market mechanism. The government can timely issue preferential policies and vigorously promote the construction of pension service institutions to meet the huge future demand for elderly care in economic backward areas.

The Impact of Government Subsidies on Private Pension Enterprises: A Decision-Making Model Based on Their CSR Levels

With a rapidly aging society, the Chinese pension industry has faced great pressure due to the increasing demand for elderly care and medical products. Due to the limited resources and capabilities of Chinese social organizations, which currently play an important role in elderly care, it is necessary to encourage more private enterprises to enter the pension industry and thus provide significantly more products to all elderly people. This study aimed to explore the extent to which government subsidies may incentivize private enterprises to enter the pension industry. In contrast to previous studies, the level of corporate social responsibility (CSR), social value, and service quality of an enterprise were considered in this study as factors that influence the decision of whether to enter the pension industry. By constructing a theoretical model, three different government subsidy strategies, namely, no subsidy, subsidy to enterprises, and subsidy to consumers, were analyzed, especially their impacts on the social and economic values of enterprises. Our theoretical and simulation results show that the impact of government subsidies is related to its level of CSR. As the CSR level is relatively high, it is more effective to grant subsidies to customers than to enterprises. Moreover, by comparing the optimal price, service quality, and demand of the three subsidy strategies, we find that subsidies to enterprises and customers will lead to the highest service quality and highest market demand, respectively.INDEX TERMS Government subsidy, private pension enterprise, elderly, service quality, corporate social responsibility.
