1970년대 이래로 노인들의 평균적인 경제상태가 향상되어 왔지만, 상당한 수의 노인들이 여전히 빈곤할 뿐만 아니라 노인들 각자가 경험하는 경제복지는 다르다. 본 연구는 노인들이 경험하는 경제복지를 조사하고 이를 바탕으로 상이한 노인가계들간의 복지상태를 비교하였다. 경제복지는 주거비가 차지하는 가계소득에 대한 비로 측정하였다. 노인가계는 노부부가계, 노인남성가계, 노인여성가계로 구분하였다. 미국의 3,449 노인가계들이 연구분석에 사용되었다. 노인가계들간의 경제복지를 비교하기 위해 다중회귀분석이 사용되어졌다. 분석결과에 의하면 상이한 노인가계들간에 경제복지는 상당한 차이가 있었다. 특히 노인여성인 경우 경제복지가 가장 낮은 것으로 나타났다.

Determinants of consumption patterns of elderly couple and elderly single were investigated using the 1996 National Survey of Family Income and Expenditure by National Statistical Office. There were large differences in consumption patterns between the elderly couple and single in terms of monthly expenditures and average budget shares of individual consumption items. Consumption functions of individual items were estimated using double-log function. Major determinants of consumption functions were income, overspending behavior, educational level of householder, and net worth for both groups, householder's job status and city residence mainly for elderly couple, and age of householder mainly for elderly single. In addition, income elasticity of elderly households was larger than net worth elasticity for all consumption items.

본 연구의 목적은 현재 실시되고 있는 장기요양보호서비스에 대하여 유형별로 비용측면에서 경제성을 분석하고 정책적 함의를 논의하는 것이다. 조사대상자는 2008년 7월부터 시행되고 있는 노인장기요양제도의 적용대상자로 인정받은 65세 이상 노인과 그 부양가족이었고, 주부양자를 대상으로 요양보호서비스유형별로 구분하여 설문조사하였다. 회수된 설문지 중에서 방문요양 155부, 방문간호 67부, 요양시설 108부, 요양병원 92부 총 422부가 본 연구의 분석 표본으로 사용되었다. 조사결과 다음과 같은 사실을 확인할 수 있었다. 첫째, 부양 가계의 가계소득이 높지 않았다. 둘째, 장기요양보험제도가 실시되고 있음에도 불구하고 노인부양가계가 노인을 위하여 직접 지불하는 금액이 여전히 높은 편이다. 셋째, 부양가계가 노인을 위하여 수발하는 데 소요되는 간접비용이 아주 높은 편이다. 특히 재가서비스인 방문요양의 경우엔 평균 756,947원, 방문간호인 경우 594,807원으로 시설서비스에 비하여 간접비용이 상대적으로 아주 더 높았다. 넷째, 장기요양보호 노인에 대한 사회적 비용이 아주 높다. 이 금액은 본 조사에서 확인한 부양가계의 평균가계소득과 비슷한 수준이다. 다섯째, 요양보호서비스 유형별로 부양가계가 부담하는 서비스 비용에서 유의한 차이를 보였다. 여섯째, 부양가계의 직접 비용에서도 요양보호서비스 유형별로 유의한 차이를 보였지만 서비스이용비용보다는 그 차이가 작았다. 일곱째, 사회적 직접 비용은 요양보호서비스 유형별로 아주 유의한 차이를 보였다. 여덟째, 요양보호서비스를 이용하는 노인에 대한 사회적 비용금액이 아주 크고 서비스 유형별 총 사회적 비용이 전체 서비스 이용노인의 평균적인 사회적 비용에 수렴하는 경향을 보였다.

The purpose of this study was to examine the health care expenditure of elderly single and elderly couple households whose head is more than 60 years old. The data analyzed for the study were Korean Retirement and Income Study(KRelS) conducted in 2007 by National Pension Corporation. The major finding of this study were as follows: First, the amount of health care expenditure of elderly single households was lower than that of elderly couple households. However, ratio of health care expenditure to total consumption expenditure of elderly single households was larger than that of elderly couple households. Second, the ratio of health care expenditure in consumption expenditure in this study was larger than the ratios in past analyse showed in the previous studies. Third, common factor affecting on health care expenditure of elderly single and elderly couple households was the existence of the family member with chronic disease or handicap. The health care expenditure of elderly singer households was influenced by income, gender and the ownership of national health insurance. The influence of income for elderly singer households seemed to be greater than for elderly couple households. The variables which affected health care expenditure of elderly couple households were age and housing tenure status. The amount and ratio health care expenditure were increased as the age increases. These results show that the health care expenditures for each groups varied according to socio-demographic variables and health-related behavior variables. It is suggested that there should be a discriminative health care policy for each elderly single and elderly couple households. In addition, the health care policy for the elderly households of which member has a chronic disease is certainly necessary. Especially a health care plan for the elderly single households with lower income is in need. For the elderly couple households, the priority group of health care policy would be the high age group.
