Empirical Analysis of Beneficial Equality of the Basic Medical Insurance for Migrants in China

)e fairness of the benefits of basic medical insurance for the migrants is drawing increasing attention. )is paper examined the beneficial equality of the basic medical insurance for the floating population in China using the “2014 National Internal Migrant Dynamic Monitoring Survey.” )e Heckman model was employed due to selection bias among inpatients, and the random forest algorithm of machine learning was used to analyze the importance of factors affecting the hospitalization decision-making, hospitalization consumption, and reimbursement proportion of the floating population.)e results show significant differences in the fairness of basic medical insurance benefits among different income groups, and the highest-income group benefits the most. In contrast, the higher-income group benefits the least. Further verification by introducing the commercial medical insurance indicated that the differences among different income groups did not disappear but reduced the degree of difference among the groups. Although China’s healthcare reform has progressed greatly, the study’s findings confirm that the government’s fair medical insurance can lead to unfair problems and the phenomena of low-income groups subsidizing high-income groups under the equalized basic medical insurance system. Adjusting the design of equalized medical insurance and allowing different income groups to pay different premium levels according to the payment level may be more conducive to the fairness of benefits based on achieving universal health coverage in China.


Introduction
Population mobility has become the main feature of China's economic and social development. China has the largest migrant population globally, which increased significantly from 50 million in 1990 to 236 million in 2019 based on the census data. e migrant population has become the main source of China's labor market, influencing the country's economic growth and social stability significantly [1]. However, due to their self-capacity and social policies, the migrants have worked and lived in terrible environments, engaged in unsanitary and dangerous work, and are vulnerable to injuries and disease, resulting in their health status not being effectively guaranteed [2][3][4]. Medical insurance could improve people's medical utilization and health status by reducing the economic threshold for medical treatment and increasing medical services availability [5]. In recent years, many studies discovered that patients with medical insurance had a higher utilization rate for outpatient, inpatient, and healthcare [6][7][8][9], while patients without medical insurance might give up or delay treatment due to the heavy financial burden [10][11][12][13]. Additionally, evidence shows that patients with medical insurance could improve their health outcomes [14][15][16].
Like many other countries worldwide, basic social health insurance (SHI) systems have been gradually established since the 1980s in China. One of the primary goals of the SHI in China is to ensure that citizens should not be denied quality healthcare services due to financial hardship [17,18]. In 2015, more than 95% of the Chinese population was covered by three basic social health insurances, including the New Rural Cooperative Medical Scheme (NRCMS) for rural residents, Urban Resident Basic Medical Insurance (URBMI) for urban workers in the informal sector and unemployed urban residents, and Urban Employee Basic Medical Insurance (UEBMI) for employees in the formal urban sector [19]. e SHI has played an important role in increasing health service accessibility, reducing economic burden, and improving health [20,21]. e proportion of out-of-pocket (OOP) payments among total medical consumption decreased from 60% in 2000 to 28% in 2016 [22]. Many studies showed that different medical insurance systems had achieved different implementation effects. For example, the NRCMI increased outpatient and inpatient services utilization but did not reduce out-of-pocket expenditures [23][24][25], the UEBMI and URBMI improved the utilization of preventive medical services, and the UEBMI could additionally reduce the OOP ratio and improve people's health status [19].
e original intention of the basic medical insurance system was to ensure that every insured person's basic medical needs are effectively met. e fairness of benefits is also the basic principle of the basic medical insurance system design. erefore, every insured person who pays the same premium should enjoy the same proportion of reimbursement compensation, namely, the same costs and the same benefits.
e equalization system should ensure that all insured persons also have equal opportunities to benefit and even persons in low-income groups enjoy equal basic health services. However, under the equalized medical insurance system, the more people use health services, the more medical insurance compensation they receive, and the more they benefit. Some studies indicated that basic medical insurance compensated different income groups differently, which benefited the wealthy more [26][27][28]. e basic medical insurance should balance the welfare improvement and efficiency loss by medical compensation and not result in excessive medical demand due to the insured persons' medical security improvement [29,30]. erefore, from the perspective of fairness, basic medical insurance should effectively make up for the medical shortage faced by the lowincome groups and balance medical resource utilization among different income groups rather than being more inclined to the rich.
Little work has been done on fairness within different individuals' incomes after the implementation of the basic medical insurance system. More attention has been paid to the comparison before and after the implementation of the policy. Additionally, it was found that there were very few studies on the equity of medical insurance benefits for urban residents. However, there is almost no literature on equity for the floating population, which plays a huge role in China's urbanization. is paper's primary focus is to discover whether the migrants have access to equal basic medical insurance benefits and whether the poor subsidize the rich under the current basic medical insurance system among the floating population. But fairness is a concept that includes value judgment, and different standards may result in different evaluations. It is necessary to define fairness in the evaluation of system effects. Many factors affected the unfairness of basic medical insurance benefits, including personal health, age, and social factors, for example, income, education, and insurance. Social factors were the main cause of unfairness [31][32][33][34], and the difference in medical compensation caused by social factors is unfair. Among these factors, which ones are more important? Previous literature used p values to judge the significance of influencing factors, and few literature about the utilization of healthcare used machine learning methods to discuss the importance of variables [35,36]. Random forest is a tree-based ensemble learning model, and it is widely used to solve classification and regression problems. e importance of variables can be ranked according to the best variable selected in the decision tree as the classification node [37]. Based on the random forest algorithm, this paper explores the relatively important factors that affect the insured's hospitalization decision-making behavior and hospitalization reimbursement behavior and discusses the fairness of medical insurance benefits for the floating population from the perspective of income differences. Furthermore, according to the Health China 2030 planning outline, a multilevel, complete, and mature medical security system must be supplemented by commercial health insurance.
ere was little study done on commercial health insurance regarding the equity of benefits from basic medical insurance for the floating population. Another goal of this study is to explore whether commercial health insurance affects the beneficial equality of basic medical insurance for the floating population.
Based on the above foundation [34], this paper defines fairness as follows: the floating population with different income levels should enjoy the same health rights and medical compensation right, which could be explained using the incidence of disease and hospitalization, the total expenditure of hospitalization and the accessibility to being hospitalized, and the reimbursement ratio of medical insurance among the insured migrants with different-level incomes. e main aim of this study proceeds as follows: First, based on the fact that medical insurance is characterized as mainly compensating and reimbursing hospitalization expenses, this paper examines whether the insured migrants with different income levels who have been hospitalized equally benefit from the basic medical insurance or not in two ways: hospitalization expense compensation and hospitalization possibility. Second, it discusses the differences in the insured groups' health status in terms of the incidence of diseases requiring hospitalization, which can influence the insured's beneficial equality.
irdly, this paper analyzes the utilization of medical services and the applicability of medical insurance for the insured to discover the main possible reason why the fair benefit of basic medical insurance is impacted. Finally, the insured people who also have commercial medical insurance are added to the basic medical insurance groups. e study explores the impact of commercial health insurance on the equality of benefits for the insured with different income levels by analyzing those who have enrolled in the basic medical insurance and commercial health insurance simultaneously.

Data Source.
e data in this paper is obtained from the China Migrants Dynamic Survey in 2014. According to the 2 Discrete Dynamics in Nature and Society principle of randomness, the survey data adopted a stratified, multistage, and scale proportional PPS sampling method. Samples were obtained from 31 provinces (autonomous regions or municipalities) and the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps, where the floating population was relatively concentrated. A questionnaire survey was conducted among 200,937 respondents who were 15-59 years old from nonlocal district (county or city) households who lived in the place of inflow for more than one month. e questionnaire included the migrant population's health, medical insurance, reimbursement, detailed demographics, household income, and expenditure information. is study mainly examined the fairness of the benefits of basic medical insurance for the floating population. After deleting the samples with free medical care, no basic medical insurance, and rural women's reimbursement subsidies that account for 100%, a total of 173733 respondents with basic medical care were chosen. Because of the limited use of data, only the survey in 2014 included the commercial medical insurance data, and there is no such related data in other years. erefore, this study had to choose the survey in 2014, however, which does not affect the final conclusion. e problem in this study pertained to the fairness of the benefits of basic medical insurance for migrants. e key outcome variables listed in Table 1 were the total medical expenditure of hospitalization and reimbursement amount for basic medical insurance according to prior literature [1,19,38]. Table 1 shows that the mean age of the migrants was about 29 years, 63% were male, and 77% were married, and the majority of residents were from rural areas (85%) and had educational qualification of junior high school or below (66%). On average, the cost of hospitalization for the insured with basic medical insurance was about 9342 yuan, and the proportion of reimbursement through medical insurance exceeded 50%.

Heckman Model.
On studying the difference in basic medical insurance benefits of the insured with different income levels, there was a phenomenon that many insured received no reimbursement when they suffered from hospitalization. One reason was that there might be deductibles, and the other was that the insured might also give up the reimbursement opportunity due to cumbersome reimbursement procedures or the problem of reimbursement in different places.
e above phenomenon might result in the sample's random error, which no longer obeys the normal distribution, and the ordinary least squares (OLS) estimation would lead to estimation bias. Accordingly, the Heckman selection was used to obtain unbiased estimates [39]. e Heckman two-stage model is suitable for solving endogenous problems caused by sample selection bias. e Heckman sample selection included two parts of estimation. e first step was to select the estimation process to estimate the factors that affected the insured's medical behavior, shown as follows: where Y i is a dummy variable indicating whether the hospital medical insurance reimbursement amount for respondent i was greater than 0 in the past 12 months. If their reimbursement amount is greater than 0, Y i is 1; otherwise it is 0. Income ij is a set of dummy variables indicating the income level group of respondent i. Here, the groups are based on a five-point scale with the possible values of 1 (lowest income), 2 (lower income), 3 (middle income), 4 (higher income), and 5 (highest income), respectively. X i is a vector of individual characteristics such as age, sex, marital status, education, and employment status. Z i is a vector of city and year dummies, used to control the unobserved heterogeneity in time and geographical environment, where ϕ(·) is the standard normal probability density function. u 1 is a vector of random errors. e second step was to predict the amount for medical insurance reimbursement using a general linear model to estimate the nonzero amount. e reason for choosing the general linear model was that the reimbursement amount and total medical expenditure of hospitalization had a heavy fat tail on the left side. However, their logarithmization was closer to a normal distribution, as shown in Figure 1, which better met the assumptions. e underlying mechanism takes the following form: where Reimburse amount is greater than zero, and there is no relation between the residual terms of models (1) and (2). e household registration factor is taken as an exclusion condition to improve the model's estimation validity. It will affect whether the insured patients are hospitalized or not and then influence their reimbursement behavior. However, it will probably directly affect the specific amount of reimbursement. e remaining variables in X i are the same as those in W i . ϕ i is a vector of random errors.
Additionally, this study mainly examines the fairness of the benefits for the floating population in the basic medical insurance system. It also involves influencing factors, such as the health status of the insured and the utilization of medical insurance. e incidence of hospitalization with diseases can replace the health status, that is, the question, "In the past 12 months, how many hospitals have you been in?" If the answer is more than zero times, the incidence is recorded as 1 and 0 otherwise. e applicability of medical insurance is determined by the medical reimbursement ratio. If the ratio is greater than zero, it is recorded as 1, indicating that it is applicable; otherwise, it is recorded as 0. e health status and applicability of medical insurance of the insured can be proposed by probit as follows: Discrete Dynamics in Nature and Society Note. e numbers in parentheses in columns (5) and (6) represent the category in the table. 4 Discrete Dynamics in Nature and Society where δ i and ζ i are vectors of random errors.

e Principle of Random Forest Model Measuring Importance.
e random forest model can be applied to both classification and regression tasks. In the two-step model, the hospitalization decision-making behavior belongs to the two-class model, and the hospitalization reimbursement behavior belongs to the regression model, so the random forest model is suitable for this situation. It uses the bagging algorithm to randomly sample the sample information to generate multiple training sets and then uses a decision tree as the base classifier for each training set and uses the majority voting results of multiple trees as the final prediction value [40]. According to the best variable selected in the decision tree as the classification node, the importance of the variables is sorted. e random forest model can be applied to both classification and regression tasks. In the two-step model, the hospitalization decision-making behavior belongs to the two-class model, and the hospitalization reimbursement behavior belongs to the regression model, so the random forest model is suitable for this situation. It uses the bagging algorithm to randomly sample the sample information to generate multiple training sets and then uses a decision tree as the base classifier for each training set and uses the majority voting results of multiple trees as the final prediction value. In the random forest model, it is difficult to quantify the direction and extent of the influence of the change of the explanatory variable on the dependent variable Y with specific numerical values, but the importance of the variables can be ranked according to the best variable selected in the decision tree as the classification node. e specific principle is that every time bagging is used to resample to build a decision tree, some samples will not be selected. ese data are out-of-bag data (denoted as obb); then, these samples can be used for cross-validation. e socalled out-of-bag data mean that each time a decision tree is established, one piece of data is obtained by repeated sampling for training the decision tree. At this time, about 1/ Discrete Dynamics in Nature and Society 5 3 of the data is not used and does not participate in the establishment of the decision tree. is part of data can be used to evaluate the performance of the decision tree and calculate the prediction error rate of the model, which is called out-of-bag data error. According to the cross-validation error as the scoring basis, (1) for each decision tree, obb is used to calculate out-ofbag data error, which is recorded as error-obb1, (2) then, noise interference is added to feature j in the out-of-bag data randomly, and the out-of-bag data error is calculated again, which is recorded as error-obb2, (3) suppose that there are n decision trees; then, the importance of feature j is In the second step, if the random noise leads to a significant increase in the error of out-of-bag data, it shows that this feature has a greater impact on the prediction results of the established random forest model, which means that the variable is of high importance. Table 2 reports the hospitalized medical expenditure of the migrants participating in the basic medical insurance (greater than 0), the hospitalization reimbursement rate, and the incidence of diseases requiring hospitalization.

Descriptive Analysis.
e results showed that the average hospitalization expenses for those enrolled in medical insurance are 9295.942 yuan, and the actual average reimbursement ratio is 55.2%. In the quintile income level sample, it can be found that the insured population has the highest hospitalization expenses in the lower-income group, the higherincome group is the second, and the highest-income group is the lowest. However, the ratio of reimbursement for hospitalized medical expenditure is the opposite. e highincome groups had a higher reimbursement ratio than the low-income groups on average. e highest-income group had the highest reimbursement ratio, reaching 58.251%, and the low-income group had the lowest reimbursement ratio, only 52.697%. e fairness differences in the floating population with basic medical insurance from Table 2 remained. It appeared that the lower-income group consumes the highest hospitalization expenses but enjoyed the lowest medical reimbursement ratio. Nevertheless, the highestincome group consumed the lowest hospitalization expenses and owned the highest medical reimbursement ratio. According to the above analysis, the difference between the total hospitalization cost and the medical reimbursement ratio might be due to the medical insurance system. It might be caused by different groups having different health rights.
is study used the possibility of being hospitalized to represent differences in access to health rights. It was found that people with lower incomes had relatively less access to health rights, which further illustrated the differences in health access to the benefits of different income groups. Table 3 shows the influencing factors of the basic medical compensation level and hospitalization accessibility of the insured floating population, using the Heckman two-step model. e Wald test indicated that the medical insurance reimbursement model had sample selection bias at the 1% level. erefore, the study selected the hukou as the excluded variable to distinguish the selection and outcome models. Among control variables, increased age, being male, and being employed were significantly associated with lower reimbursement. Additionally, higher levels of education were significantly associated with higher medical insurance compensation. Controlling for other factors that were unchanged at the level of 1%, there were significant differences among the medical compensation levels of different income groups. e medical insurance compensation received by any other age group was significantly lower than that received by the highest-income group. Column 4 shows that the highest-income group was significantly more likely to be hospitalized than any other income group.

Factors of the Basic Medical Insurance Compensation Level and Hospitalization Accessibility of the Insured.
It can be seen from the two aspects of medical insurance compensation level and hospitalization accessibility that have been discussed that people with the highest-income levels were most likely to be hospitalized, which means that they have more opportunities to use medical insurance and more likelihood of receiving medical insurance compensation. However, even if they were hospitalized, the medical insurance compensation for the highest-income group was more than that of other income groups. erefore, the results suggested a problem of unfair medical insurance benefits, which is especially beneficial for people with incomes above 20%.

e Importance of Factors Affecting Medical Behavior and Hospitalization Reimbursement for the Floating Population.
Random forest algorithm is used to rank the importance of the characteristics that affect the insured's hospitalization medical consumption, reimbursement proportion, and hospitalization possibility. e importance of seven factors, marriage status, education level, age, gender, income, working status, and registered residence difference, is shown in Figure 2. is result is consistent with the conclusion that the statistical model is basically consistent and significant in Table 3. According to Figure 2, marriage has the most important impact on the insured, which may be due to the fact that about 77% of the data represent the status of married, and marriage has a certain protective effect on the health of the floating population, thus affecting people's medical behavior. Education level has a greater impact on the proportion of reimbursement, while age and gender have a relatively small impact on the degree of reimbursement. Income level and working condition are relatively important to reimbursement proportion and hospitalization possibility of floating population. Part of the reason is that higher education level often leads to better work and higher income, better medical security, and being more conducive to its full use of medical resources [1,13]. e characteristics of household registration are the least important, perhaps because China is gradually breaking the dual-structure system of urban and rural areas and is constantly promoting Standard errors are in parentheses; * p < 0.05, * * p < 0.01, and * * * p < 0.001. Discrete Dynamics in Nature and Society 7 the medical reform policies such as settlement and reimbursement in different places. Table 4 contains the analysis of the potential channels of unfair benefit from the basic medical insurance system for the floating population from the medical service utilization (i.e., the total hospitalization medical expenses) and the possibility of a basic medical insurance application. As is evident from Table 4, the total cost of hospitalization in the lowest-income group was significantly lower than that of other income groups; that is, many of them might have chosen not to get hospitalized. e insured groups of different income levels have significant differences in the utilization of medical services compared with the highest-income group. Since the insurance amount of medical insurance is reimbursed according to a certain proportion of the total medical expenses, the difference in the population that avails medical service utilization is likely to cause the difference in the medical compensation level. As seen from the last column in Table 4, the possibilities of applying medical insurance for the lower-income, middle-income, and high-income groups are lower by about 14% compared to the highest-income group, and the lowest-income group is lower by about 7.67% compared to the highest-income group.

e Role of Commercial Medical
Insurance. Among the migrants with basic medical insurance, many also participated in commercial medical insurance. Commercial medical insurance can effectively alleviate the medical consumption burden of the floating population as a supplement to basic medical insurance. e next step is to examine the supplementary equity of the multilevel medical security system by adding commercial medical insurance factors to the Heckman two-part model (participation in the commercial medical insurance is recorded as 1, and nonparticipation is recorded as 0). e second column in Table 5 shows that the reimbursement ratios of other income groups were significantly different from those of the highest-income group. Meanwhile, with the increase in income, the reimbursement ratio gradually decreases. However, the reimbursement ratio for the lowest-income group was not the lowest, and the lowest-income group spends the least on hospitalization, as displayed in the last column in Table 5.
Comparing Tables 3 and 5, it is shown that, after adding the commercial insurance restrictions, the coefficient of medical reimbursement ratio of other groups became smaller than that of the highest-income group, indicating that commercial medical insurance had reduced the difference in medical reimbursement ratios between different groups to a certain extent. e last column in Table 5 presented that the total hospitalization medical expenses of all other groups are significantly different compared to the highest-income group. Compared with the full sample in Table 4, under the restrictions of commercial insurance, group differences were reduced; however, the lowest-income group still had the least expenditure on hospitalization.

Discussion
e basic medical insurance system is a beneficial project that covers all citizens and requires fairness in system design. However, there is some unfairness endemic to developing basic medical insurance systems in countries worldwide, forcing the continuous optimization and the reform of the basic medical insurance system to achieve the basic medical insurance system's original intention. e previous literature has defined the fairness of medical services [41,42], but few studies discussed the definition of the fairness of medical insurance. e fairness of medical insurance is different from the fairness of medical services. e fairness of medical insurance emphasizes the accessibility of services (e.g., the possibility of hospitalization) and underlines cost-sharing accessibility (e.g., the medical insurance applicability).
is study reveals the fairness of the benefits of basic medical insurance for the floating population with different income levels, mainly from the perspective of equalization. e results showed that different income groups have significant differences in the benefits of basic medical insurance among the floating population, and the highest-income group benefited the most. Although the low-income and the high-income groups paid the same medical insurance premiums, they did not receive the same medical compensation. e highest-income group obtained more compensation than their premium contributions, indicating unequal benefits of the basic medical insurance system among migrants and the existence of the phenomenon that the "poor" subsidized the "rich." However, we found that the higherincome migrants benefited the least in medical insurance compensation, as listed in Table 3   Discrete Dynamics in Nature and Society concluded that the lowest-income people benefited the least in medical subsidies. e possible reason was that the hospitalization expenses of the lowest-income group were 32.07% less than those of the highest-income group. In comparison, hospitalization expenses of the higher-income group are only 25.74% less than those of the highest-income group, as shown in Table 4. Nevertheless, the medical insurance applicability of the lowest-income group is 7.67% lower than that of the highest-income group, and that of the higher-income group is 13.98% lower than that of the highest-income group. ese indicated that, compared with the higher-income group, the lowest-income group is more likely to spend less on hospitalization expenses but is more willing to be reimbursed by medical insurance. High-income people had more hospitalization expenses. However, they were often unwilling to choose reimbursement of medical insurance. e reason might be that the current medical insurance reimbursement for the floating population has not been fully integrated with the inflow place. Medical treatment settlement in different places is still a problem [44][45][46]. e cumbersome medical reimbursement procedures and the high cost make the higher-income group abandon the reimbursement and choose to pay. However, the lowestincome people were more willing to use medical reimbursement to relieve their financial burden even if the procedures were complicated.
is paper reports differences in the basic medical insurance reimbursement ratio and hospitalization medical expense between other income groups and the highest-income group after adding commercial medical insurance. On doing so, the degree of difference decreased, indicating that commercial medical insurance reduced the beneficial inequality among income groups to some extent. erefore, while optimizing the basic medical insurance system in China, the supplementary commercial medical insurance can be appropriately adopted to improve the fairness of basic medical insurance benefits according to the differences among the income groups.
ough the Chinese health insurance reform has gained great success, more work should be done to ensure the equal benefits of health insurance. Future research should focus on how the Chinese government can decrease the premium of vulnerable groups such as the lower-income migrants or increase the reimbursement rates among those at high risk of catastrophic health expenditures. Additionally, more research on designing a medical insurance system according to the characteristics of the floating population to improve the fairness of the medical insurance system would be extremely helpful in deepening reforms of the Chinese medical insurance system. is study has several limitations. First, the survey data were not specially designed for this study, and the data were collected before this study. us, the data were imperfect for accessing hospital medical insurance reimbursement amount because the reimbursement amount of basic medical insurance in the questionnaire included NRCMS, URBMI, UEBMI, employment injury insurance, and maternity insurance, which might be either underestimated or overestimated due to bias.

Discrete Dynamics in Nature and Society 9 of benefits of different basic medical insurance systems for the floating population is a possible direction for further research. Second, the hospitalization medical expense among the floating population was not caused by the latest inpatient service, which did not fully represent the total hospitalization medical expense. ese factors might also have led to bias. Additionally, some confounding factors such as health and disease status could not be controlled because of the limitations of available data, which might be related to the medical insurance availability and the utilization of medical services for the floating population. ird, since the respondents' age was restricted to 15-59 years, this paper's findings cannot be generalized to all age groups, especially for the elderly migrant population. ere might also be inequality of benefits from medical insurance among the elderly population. Machine learning methods have been applied in many fields [47,48], but studies in the fields of medical care and healthcare are rare. is study used the random forest algorithm to solve the medical and health insurance problem, which can be regarded as its preliminary attempt. Further in-depth research is still needed.

Conclusions
is paper answers the question of the fairness of the benefits of the basic medical insurance for the floating population using the 2014 CMDS survey data and attempts to discover whether there is a phenomenon where the poor subsidize the rich. e study analyzed the fairness of the basic medical insurance benefits for the insured floating population with different income levels from the perspective of equalization by using the two-stage Heckman model. e main findings were that, regardless of the fairness of basic medical insurance compensation of hospitalization expenses, there were significant differences among the floating population with different income levels, and the highest-income group benefited the most. e phenomenon that the lower-income group subsided the higher-income groups was also confirmed. Additionally, those who benefited the least were the higher-income group rather than the lowest-income group. Further inspection illustrated that commercial medical insurance reduced the inequality of benefits among groups to a certain extent. ese findings may provide the inspiration that the Chinese government accelerates the reform of medical service fairness.
