发展商业健康保险不仅是满足人民群众多样化医疗需求的民生工程，更是在老龄化背景下，有效应对人口年龄结构转变、分担基本医保支出压力、实现整 个医疗保障体系财务稳健与可持续发展的战略选择。老年人口是医疗资源消耗的主要群体，其慢性病高发、照护需求长期化等特点，在一定程度上加剧了 基本医保"保基本"的筹资与支出矛盾。在此形势下，构建以基本医保为主体、商业健康保险等共同发展的多层次医疗保障体系，通过商业健康保险的市场 机制有效承接超出"基本"范围的保障需求，能够显著增强医保制度应对老龄化冲击的韧性。 有基本医保，为什么还要大力发展商业健康保险？ 从学术定位上看，商业健康保险是以被保险人的身体为保险标的，保证被保险人因疾病或意外事故所致伤害产生的直接费用和间接损失获得补偿的保险。 在国家顶层设计中，其定位日益明晰且被赋予更高期望。《"健康中国2030"规划纲要》提出，"健全以基本医疗保障为主体、其他多种形式补充保险和商 业健康保险为补充的多层次医疗保障体系"；2020年发布的《关于促进社会服务领域商业保险发展的意见》设定了"力争到2025年，商业健康保险市场规模 超过2万亿元，成为中国特色医疗保障体系的重要组成部分"这一量 ...
