 2 minor   Health expenditure - Compulsory private insurance schemes       Health expenditure in compulsory private insurance schemes. Includes financing arrangements under which all residents (or a large group of the population) are obliged to take out health insurance with a health insurance company or health insurance fund. Compulsory private insurance is a financing arrangement under which all residents (or a large group of the population) are obliged to take out health insurance with a health insurance company or health insurance fund, meaning that the purchase of private coverage is mandatory. The insurance is established by (i.e. entitlement for services is based on) an insurance contract/ agreement between the individual and the insurer. Compulsory private insurance schemes have the following characteristics: - Mode of participation: mandatory, either for all citizens/residents, or for a specific group of the population obligated by law/government regulation to purchase a health insurance policy (e.g. formal sector employees); - Benefit entitlement: contributory, based upon the purchase of an insurance policy from a selected health insurance company (or other agency involved); - Basic method for fund-raising: compulsory health insurance premiums, sometimes partially or fully subsidised by the government, including the possible use of tax credits; - Mechanism and extent of pooling funds: national, sub-national, or by scheme; with multiple funds, the extent of pooling will depend on risk-equalisation mechanisms across schemes. This also depends on the extent of regulation of the premium and the standardisation of benefits across schemes.
