우리나라의 노인장기요양보험제도는 고령사회와 노인부양에 대한 인식의 변화는 물론 전통적인 가족 돌봄의 어려움으로 인해 2008년부터 제도로서 시행되고 있다. 제도시행 당시 장기요양 이용자는 1등급 ~ 3등급까지였으나 현재는 치매질환자에 대한 급여확대를 통해 5등급자까지 장기요양급여를 받고 있다. 이처럼 우리나라의 노인장기요양보험 이용자는 지속적으로 확대되고 있어 향후 지속가능한 제도로서 자리매김을 위해 재정관리에 대한 필요성이 높아지고 있다. 이러한 측면에서 노인장기요양제도에서 공식, 비공식 자원의 연계를 통한 케어매니지먼트 개념의 적용이 필요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 우리보다 먼저 케어매니지먼트를 적용한 일본의 개호보험의 사례를 통해 장기요양보 험제도의 발전적 방향에 대하여 고찰하고자 하였다.

Crop yield insurance program in Korea has rapidly grown not only in quantity but in quality for 15 years since it was introduced in 2001. Despite growth of Crop insurance, performance evaluation for crop yield insurance has not fully been evaluated at the farm, consumer and national level. The purpose of this study is to conduct the performance evaluation for crop yield insurance through estimating the effects of farm revenue stabilization and social welfare increase with three popular insurance items: apple, pear and sweet persimmon. Based on the analysis of social welfare effect, cost-benefit analysis of operating crop yield insurance was conducted at the national level. We found that crop yield insurance stabilizes farm revenue based on the estimated four risk indicators: Coefficient of Variation, Value at Risk, Certainty Equivalence, and Risk Premium. The result of cost-benefit analysis shows that crop yield insurance increases social net benefit by 44.1 billion won for the three items. As a result, crop yield insurance program has contributed remarkably on social welfare as well as farm management and its role will be more important in the future.
