This new policy was designed to reduce the growth of ambulatory care expenditure and prescription utilization. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of drug copayment policy, and it used NHI claim data from 1998 to 2001 and tax report information with difference-in-difference methodology to analyze. This study observed epilepsy patients’ medical utilization and health status for both short-term (i.e., one year after the policy) and long-term (i.e., two year after the policy) periods. Besides, it evaluated correction of “cure item” column in the NHI claim data by analyzing epilepsy patients. The main findings were concluded as below: 1.The impacts of epilepsy patients’ medical utilization and expenditure: (1) Prescription expenditure: There were no significant effects on total prescription expenditure and antiepileptics expenditure for both short- term and long-term periods. (2) Prescription days: There was a significant decrease on total prescription days and antiepileptics days for both short-term and long- term periods. (3) Ambulatory care visits: There was a significant decrease on total ambulatory care visits and epilepsy-related ambulatory care visits for both short-term and long-term periods. 2.Using length of stay and emergency care visits as health status indicator, the impact of epilepsy patients' health status: (1) Length of stay: There was no significant effect on total length of stay for both short-term and long-term periods, and there was a significant decrease on epilepsy- related length of stay. (2) Emergency care visits: There was no significant effect on total emergency care visits and epilepsy-related emergency care visits for both short-term and long-term periods. 3.By analyzing epilepsy patients’ medical utilization and expenditure, this study found there were lots of data missing in “cure item” column in NHI claim data. Besides, there were lots of significant differences from medical utilization and expenditure between patients who had records in the column and those who did not have records. Based on above findings, this study suggests: 1.It is appropriate to maintain the current drug copayment policy. 2.In order to release the financial burden for those chronic patients who really need medical cares,govern- ment should motivate doctors to prescribe more longer duration of medicine for chronic diseases as incentive. Meanwhile, government should encourage chronic patients to discuss with doctors to know whether they should take longer duration of medicine for chronic diseases or not. 3.In order to avoid more researchers will have been confused by NHI claim data in the future, Bureau of NHI should evaluate the existence of “cure item” column.摘要 i Abstract ii 目錄 iv 第一章 緒論 1  第一節 研究背景 1   第二節 研究動機 3   第三節 研究目的 7 第二章 文獻探討 8   第一節 部分負擔政策之介紹 8   第二節 我國門診部分負擔政策之介紹 15   第三節 部分負擔政策對醫療利用的影響 20   第四節 部分負擔政策對健康的影響 26   第五節 癲癇之概述 28 第三章 研究方法 34   第一節 研究設計 34   第二節 研究假說 37   第三節 統計分析 38   第四節 研究材料 44   第五節 研究限制 47 第四章 研究結果 48   第一節 人口學特性分析 48   第二節 醫療利用分析 53   第三節 多變項分析 65   第四節 特定治療項目代號欄位正確性分析 70   第五節 研究結果小結 74 第五章 討論 76   第一節 醫療利用之變化 76   第二節 健康狀況與相關議題之探討 82   第三節 研究方法之探討 84   第四節 特定治療項目代號欄位之正確性 88 第六章 結論與建議 89  第一節 結論 89  第二節 建議 91 參考文獻 94   英文部分 94   中文部分 98 附件一 抗癲癇藥物品名及其相對應之代號 101 附件二 特定治療項目代號對照表 103610087 bytesapplication/pdfen-US特定治療項目代號抗癲癇藥物醫療費用醫療利用癲癇健康狀況健康保險必要性藥品部分負擔健保資料庫差異中之差異CopaymentNHI claim dataMedical UtilizationDifference-in-differenceEssential drugsHealth statusAntiepilepticsMedical ExpenditureEpilepsyCure itemHealth insurance藥品部分負擔政策對癲癇病人之影響The Impacts of Drug Copayment Policy on Medical Utilization and Expenses for Epilepsy Patient in Taiwanthesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/60056/1/ntu-93-R91843006-1.pdf
