摘　　要：传统的“先垫付再报销”的医保结算方式不利于患者尤其是受到较强流动性约束的贫困患者使用医疗服务。本文基于江西省某市“一站式”即时结算系统投入运行的外生冲击,使用双重差分方法考察了即时结算系统对建档立卡户住院医疗服务使用的影响。研究发现,即时结算系统推行后,建档立卡户使用住院服务的概率和住院时的次均医疗花费均出现了显著提升。异质性分析的结果表明,即时结算系统对于事前家庭收入水平较低的建档立卡户产生了更大的影响。以上结果表明,“一站式”即时结算系统有助于放松贫困人口就诊时面临的流动性约束,切实促进其使用医疗服务。The liquidity constraint caused by the traditional reimbursement-based system can pose a barrier to healthcare utilization among the patients,especially the low-income households.Leveraging on an exogenous policy shock in City X of Jiangxi Province,we investigate the effect of implementing the"One-Stop Settlement"system on registered households'inpatient service utilization using a difference-in-differences framework.We find that the implementation of the system has a significant positive impact on the probability of utilizing inpatient services among registered households,and there is a significant increase in the average inpatient expense per hospital stay.The heterogeneity analysis further reveals that the effect is more pronounced for those with relatively lower pre-treatment household earnings.Altogether,these findings prove that the implementation of the"One-Stop Settlement"system can help to relax the liquidity constraint of the low-income population,and in turn,increase their utilization of healthcare services.
