Abstract
- Background: Medical insurance stands as a pivotal component within the overarching framework of public service systems. The intricate interplay between the extent of healthcare coverage and the overall well-being of the populace remains a pivotal research question within the academic sphere. Methods: Drawing from the comprehensive dataset of the Chinese Household Livelihood Survey, this article employs a rigorous data model to delve into the profound implications of medical coverage on population health. Results: The descriptive analysis revealed that areas with broader medical coverage tend to exhibit higher levels of overall population health. This initial observation provided a foundation for further quantitative exploration using multiple regression analysis. The regression analysis demonstrated a statistically significant positive relationship between medical coverage and population health. This finding is particularly noteworthy as it suggests that expanding access to healthcare services has tangible benefits for improving the overall health of a population. Conclusion: From the lens of familial sustenance, this article delves into the intricate health implications of medical coverage, thereby introducing a novel theoretical lens to the evolving discourse surrounding medical insurance healthcare systems and their impact on public health. This approach aims to enrich the current understanding of this complex relationship and contribute to the scholarly dialogue. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
