Le "non-recours" à la Couverture maladie universelle : émergence d'une catégorie d'action et changement organisationnel / The "non take-up" of free health insurance coverage : emergence of a category of action and organisational change

Revil, Héléna 16 January 2014 (has links)
Cette thèse analyse l'émergence, en France, de la question du non-recours à la Couverture maladie universelle complémentaire (CMU C) et à l'Aide complémentaire santé (ACS), ainsi que son institutionnalisation dans la branche Maladie de la Sécurité sociale. La CMU C et l'ACS ont été créées pour limiter les inégalités d'accès aux soins. Celles-ci se sont en effet accrues avec les augmentations continues des frais de santé laissés à la charge des patients. Au croisement de la socio-histoire, de la sociologie de l'action publique et de la sociologie des organisations, le processus d'institutionnalisation du non-recours est étudié de manière chronologique, au travers de séquences d'action qui ont : initié une attention pour le phénomène ; positionné ses enjeux au regard des restructurations de la protection maladie des plus démunis ; construit des représentations et structuré une stratégie d'action pour le traiter. Principalement problématisé autour d'un enjeu d'effectivité des droits CMU C et ACS, le non-recours est devenu peu à peu un instrument opérationnel de la correction des inégalités d'accès aux soins, définie comme axe prioritaire de la gestion du risque maladie. Sa prise en compte a engagé l'Assurance maladie dans des changements profonds de pratiques et d'organisation du travail. De manière surplombante, c'est une transformation du rapport de l'institution à ses ressortissants fragiles qui s'est enclenchée, afin de faire en sorte que les populations démunies se rapprochent de leurs droits. En ce sens, l'institutionnalisation du non-recours s'inscrit dans un mouvement qui vise à concentrer les moyens et les actions de la branche Maladie sur les populations dites fragiles. Une approche de l'action publique par le non-recours aux droits paraît ainsi pertinente pour comprendre comment l'intégration de problèmes émergents, peu visibles ou volontairement ignorés, leur mise en sens par des acteurs publics et l'institution de nouvelles catégories d'action viennent travailler les organismes administratifs bureaucratiques dans leurs fonctionnements, leurs logiques et leurs normes d'intervention les plus ancrés. L'approche par le non recours est, en l'occurrence, un traceur du changement opéré à l'aune des ressortissants de l'action publique. / This thesis analyzes the emergence, in France, of the issue of non take-up of Free Supplementary Health Insurance Coverage (“Couverture maladie universelle complémentaire” or “CMU-C”) and Assistance for Private Health Insurance (“Aide complémentaire santé” or “ACS”), as well as its institutionalization within the Health branch of the Social Security system. The CMU-C and the ACS have been created to limit the inequalities in access to healthcare. These have indeed risen with the continuous increase of health expenses left payable by the patients. At the crossroads of socio-history, sociology of public action and sociology of organizations, the process of institutionalization of non take-up is studied chronologically, through sequences of action which have: brought to attention the phenomenon; positioned its challenges in light of the health care restructurings for the most destitute; built representations and structured a plan of action to treat it. Problematized primarily around the challenge of operativity of the CMU-C and ACS benefits, the non take-up has gradually become an operational tool for the correction of inequalities in access to healthcare, which was defined as a priority in the management of health issues. Addressing it has committed the health system to profound changes in its practices and work organization. Overarching it, a transformation of the institution's relationship to its vulnerable nationals has been set into motion, to ensure that the destitute populations are brought closer to their benefits. In this respect, the institutionalization of non take-up is part of a movement that seeks to concentrate the resources and actions of the Health branch on the populations considered vulnerable. An approach of public action by the non take-up of benefits thus appears relevant for understanding how the integration of emerging problems, less visible or deliberately ignored, their sensegiving by public actors and the institution of new categories of action, come to challenge the bureaucratic administrations in their most entrenched functioning, logic and standards of intervention. The approach by the non take-up is, as it happens, an indicator of change operated with regard to public action beneficiaries.

Reducing Health Disparities in African American Communities through Church and Federal Partnerships

Hill, Shelia Lassiter 01 January 2017 (has links)
Despite the passage of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) in 2010, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention identified persistent disparities in health care resources as the primary causes of mortality among minority populations. An underexplored resource for affected African American populations is the church, which is not a recognized stakeholder in the implementation of current health care policy. The purpose of this phenomenological case study was to gather perspectives from African American parishioners who lacked sufficient health care insurance on the roles the church could play. Qualitative data management software was used to organize the data (transcripts of interviews) for coding. The purposeful sample of 12 church attendees came from urban, suburban, and rural African American churches. The Andersen behavioral model and Hochbaum's health belief model were used as the conceptual framework for thematic analysis of health care disparities. Kingdon's multiple-stream framework provided theoretical grounds for policy development and revision. Key findings revealed several interrelated health care disparity themes: the significance of insurance coverages, premium costs, financial barriers, family and personal issues, empowerment strategies, religious beliefs, and roles the church could play in promoting quality community health. The study has implications for positive social change: The results include guidance for the development of a bipartisan health care policy that includes the church as a stakeholder. A- partnership between the church and the legislators of health care reform could be a catalyst for improved metrics, trust, accountability, transparency, and opportunities to create tailored health care interventions and thus help alleviate societal health crises.

Payment of Insurance Premium and Subsistence of the Insurance Contract / Pago de la Prima y Subsistencia del Contrato de Seguro

Ortega Piana, Marco Antonio 12 April 2018 (has links)
This article addresses the issue referred to the remedies of the insurance contract for the non-payment of the premium. t hrough an analysis of the previous and current legislation, the author examines the consequences of the non-payment of the insurance premium in the contractual relationship. By recognizing the protective nature of the legislation in favor of the insured as the weak party, three specific contractual remedies are identified: The suspension of coverage, the termination of the contract and the the extinction of the contractual relationship by inaction of the parties. / El presente artículo aborda la temática referida a los remedios del contrato de seguro ante el incumplimiento del pago de la prima. r ealizando un análisis de los remedios que planteaba la anterior legislación así como la vigente, el autor examina las consecuencias que tiene el incumplimiento del pago de la prima en la relación contractual. Reconociendo el carácter tuitivo de la legislación en favor del asegurado como parte débil, se identifica tres remedios contractuales específicos: la suspensión de la cobertura, la resolución del contrato y la extinción del contrato por inacción de las partes.

Evidence and Implications of the Affordable Care Act for Racial/Ethnic Disparities in Diabetes Health During and Beyond the Pandemic

Lee, Jusung, Hale, Nathan L. 01 April 2022 (has links)
Amid the global pandemic, it becomes more apparent that diabetes is a pressing health concern because racial/ethnic minorities with underlying diabetes conditions have been disproportionately affected. The study proposes a multiyear examination to document the role of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) in racial/ethnic disparities in diabetes health. Using the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System from 2011 to 2019, the study with a pre-post design investigated changes in access to care and diabetes health among non-White minorities compared with Whites before and after the ACA by conducting multivariable linear regression, with state-fixed effects and robust standard errors. Compared with Whites, racial/ethnic minorities showed significant improvements in health insurance coverage, having a personal doctor, and not seeing a doctor because of cost. Blacks (3.2% points,  ≤ 0.000), Hispanics (1.6% points,  = 0.001), and "other" racial/ethnic group (1.5% points,  = 0.003) experienced a greater increase in diagnosed prediabetes than Whites, whereas no and small differences were found in diagnosed diabetes and obesity, respectively. The yearly comparisons of changes in diagnosed prediabetes showed that Blacks compared with Whites had a growing increase from 1.2% points ( = 0.001) in 2014 to 3.3% points ( = 0.001) in 2019. Insurance coverage has declined after 2016, and obesity had an increasing trend across race/ethnicity. The ACA had a positive role in improving access to care and identifying those at risk for diabetes to a larger extent among racial/ethnic minorities. However, the policy impacts have been diminishing in recent years. Continued efforts are needed for sustained policy effects.

論人壽保險人之免責事由

張筱筠 Unknown Date (has links)
近來,由於詐領人壽保險死亡保險金之情況甚為嚴重,使得政府及保險人不得不對人壽保險人免責事由之規範加以留意。而此亦為本文撰寫靈感來源。 故本文乃試從保險法及保險學之角度,對人壽保險人免責事由之意義及內容加以界定,進而於提出各國立法例後,探究目前我國人壽保險人之法定免責事由,並以人壽保險單示範條款為意定免責事由之中心,探究相關之法令規定。 對於人壽保險人免責事由之主要問題乃出自保險法第一百零九條及第一百二十一條,雖現行人壽保險單示範條款第十四條之規定亦源自於此二法條而來。然而,對於其中之爭議點,人壽保險單示範條款仍未加以解決。此外,本文亦兼論有關戰爭、內亂及其他類似的武裝變亂和核子反應造成之損害,保險人是否得以免責。 最後,對於前述之問題,本文建議除了從我國保險法第一百零九條、一百二十一條、第三十二條之內容加以修正之外,亦可從保險犯罪防制中心之成立,進行危險控制之工作。 / Defrauding death benefits of life insurance has become more and more serious recently, so the government and insurers must keep their eyes open about the liability exception of life insurers. This is also the inspiration source of this essay. This essay tries to describe the definition and contexts of the liability exception of life insurers from the insurance law and insurance theories points of view. After bringing the cases and laws in different countries forward, the writer will proceed to the next step: to investigate into the statutory liability exception of life insurers; and then, to center on Model Provisions of Life Insurance Policy, studying the related regulations about the exceptions or exclusions of life policy. The main issues of the liability exception of the life insurers arise from Sections 109 and 121 of the Insurance Law of R. O. C.. Although the Model Provisions of Life Insurance Policy S.14 also came from these rules, the main issues still remain unsolved. Moreover, this essay will also discuss about whether or not the insurers should be liable for the insurance events caused by the wars, civil strifes, other armed forces and nuclear reaction. Finally, this essay suggests amending the Insurance Law of R.O.C., S.109, 121, and 32 to solve the issues mentioned above as well as establishing the Crime Prevention Center of Insurance Institute to carry out the work of risk control.

Försäkringsskydd för skadeståndsansvar vid dataskyddsöverträdelser : En undersökning av försäkringsvillkorens omfattning och eventuella begränsningar i förhållande till art. 82 GDPR och grupptalan / Insurance coverage for liability in case of data protection breaches : An investigation into the extent and potential limitations of insurance terms in relation to art. 82 GDPR and class action lawsuits

Nahlbom, Robin January 2024 (has links)
I uppsatsen utreds försäkringsskyddet för skadeståndsansvar vid dataskyddsöverträdelser. GDPR är den centrala regleringen för personuppgiftsbehandling och fastställer ett antal principer som måste upprätthållas för att den ansvarige ska få behandla personuppgifter. Bryter den ansvarige mot förordningens principer har den registrerade rätt att kräva skadestånd enligt art. 82.1 GDPR. Förordningen fastställer tre kumulativa krav som måste vara uppfyllda för att skadeståndsskyldighet ska föreligga. Det innefattar att en överträdelse av GDPR har skett, att materiell eller immateriell skada till följd av denna överträdelse har uppstått och att det föreligger ett orsakssamband mellan skadan och överträdelsen. Förordningen innehåller även en bestämmelse som tar över medlemsstaternas nationella skadeståndsrättsliga bestämmelser, vilket innebär att GDPR ska tillämpas enligt sin ordalydelse och att de kumulativa kraven enligt art. 82.1 GDPR måste följas. Det innebär att nationella skadeståndsrättsliga begrepp inte bör jämställas med begrepp som framgår av art. 82.1 GDPR eftersom begreppen har tillkommit i en helt annan kontext. Exempelvis översätts i vissa fall materiella och immateriella skador till ekonomiska och ideella skador. Begreppen är inte synonyma och bör inte tillställas samma betydelse eftersom terminologin i art. 82.1 GDPR kan misstolkas. Försäkringsvillkoren som reglerar skadeståndsskyldigheten för dataskyddsöverträdelser och som även hänvisar till art. 82.1 GDPR, innehåller i vissa fall nationella skadeståndsrättsliga begrepp och även andra begrepp som inte framgår av förordningen. Det kan leda till att kongruensen mellan villkorens utformning och förordningens ordalydelse medför tolkningsproblematik vid bedömning om skadeståndsskyldighet föreligger. Därför bör försäkringsvillkoren endast innehålla sådan terminologi som framgår av art. 82.1 GDPR. Dataskyddsöverträdelser medför oftast att en stor grupp människor lider skada varför förordningen tillåter registrerade att föra grupptalan med hjälp av en ideell organisation enligt art. 80 GDPR. Teoretiskt sett kan skadeståndsbeloppen bli högre än försäkringsbeloppen varför det i sådana fall saknas ett försäkringsskydd för grupptalan för den personuppgiftsansvarige. Försäkringsvillkoren anger däremot ingenting om att försäkringen inte täcker ett sådant anspråk. Därmed ställs försäkringsbolagen inför utmaningen att hantera sådana anspråk, varför försäkringen bör uppdateras för att möta skadestånd i en grupptalan vid dataskyddsöverträdelser. / The essay investigates insurance coverage for liability for damages in the event of data protection breaches. GDPR is the central regulation for the processing of personal data and establishes a number of principles that must be upheld for the data controller to process personal data. If the data controller breaches the principles of the regulation, the data subject has the right to claim damages under Art. 82.1 GDPR. The regulation sets out three cumulative requirements that must be met for liability for damages to arise. This includes that a breach of the GDPR has occurred, that material or immaterial damage as a result of this breach has arisen, and that there is a causal link between the damage and the breach. The regulation also includes a provision that supersedes the national tort law provisions of Member States, which means that the GDPR shall be applied according to its wording and that the cumulative requirements under Art. 82.1 GDPR must be followed. This means that national tort law concepts should not be equated with concepts as set out in Art. 82.1 GDPR as the concepts have arisen in a completely different context. For example, in some cases, material and immaterial damages are translated into economic and non-economic damages. The concepts are not synonymous and should not be attributed the same meaning as the terminology in Art. 82.1 GDPR can be misinterpreted. The insurance terms and conditions that regulate liability for damages in the event of data protection breaches and also refer to Art. 82.1 GDPR, in some cases contain national tort law concepts and other concepts that are not evident in the regulation. This may lead to a lack of congruence between the wording of the terms and conditions and the wording of the regulation, resulting in interpretation issues when assessing whether liability for damages exists. Therefore, the insurance terms and conditions should only contain terminology as set out in Art. 82.1 GDPR. Data protection breaches usually result in harm to a large group of people, which is why the regulation allows data subjects to bring a collective action with the assistance of a not-for-profit organization under Art. 80 GDPR. Theoretically, damages awarded may exceed insurance coverage, which means there is no insurance coverage for collective actions for the data controller in such cases. However, the insurance terms and conditions do not specify that the insurance does not cover such a claim. Therefore, insurance companies are faced with the challenge of handling such claims, which is why the insurance should be updated to cover damages in a collective action in the event of data protection breaches.
