The LSE-EC final report on private health insurance has been published. The report was presented to EC officials from three directorates (Employment, Social Affairs & Equal Opportunities; Internal Market; and Competition) in July.
This new report analyses markets for private health insurance (PHI) in the European Union (EU). Part 1 reviews market role, size, structure and conduct and public policy towards PHI. Part 2 focuses on the impact of EU law on public policy towards PHI. Part 3 examines the policy implications of PHI on health policy objectives within the market and on the wider health system. It also discusses barriers to market development and public debate about the current and future role of PHI. The full report is now available on the Commission's website: Private health insurance in the European Union
