本文构建了小型开放的两部门（医疗保健和非医疗保健）代际重叠模型，研究了人口老龄化引起的医疗保健需求变化如何影响经济的就业结构和人均收入增长率。我们发现，人口老龄化导致劳动力从非医疗保健部门转向医疗保健部门，并降低了人均收入增长率。本文还调查了儿童保育的公共政策，并论证了当代人和后代人之间在儿童保育公共政策方面存在代际冲突。
This paper constructs a small open two-sector (health care and non-health care) overlapping generations model and investigates how changes in the demand for health care induced by population aging influence the economy's employment structure and per capita income growth rate. We show that population aging induces a shift in labor from the non-health care sector to the health care sector and lowers the per capita income growth rate. This paper also investigates public policy for child care and demonstrates the existence of an intergenerational conflict between current and future generations concerning public policy on child care.
