| Preliminary scope of work |
| Ve své práci se zaměřím na budoucí vývoj výše veřejných výdajů na dlouhodobou péči v České republice. Dlouhodobá péče zahrnuje zdravotní a sociální služby jedincům, kteří jsou nesoběstační ve vykonávání aktivit každodenního života. Tato nesoběstačnost může být způsobena špatným zdravotním či mentálním stavem. Péče je považována za dlouhodobou, pokud je nutné ji poskytovat alespoň šest měsíců. Obecně se očekává, že výdaje na dlouhodobou péči v České republice porostou kvůli demografickému stárnutí obyvatelstva.
V práci budu modelovat budoucí úroveň spotřeby dlouhodobé péče s ohledem na demografický vývoj v České republice. Na základě úrovně spotřeby dlouhodobé péče poté odhadnu celkové budoucí veřejné výdaje na dlouhodobou péči. K modelování využiji data poskytnutá Ministerstvem zdravotnictví České republiky. Očekávaná struktura práce: 1. Úvod 2. Očekávaný demografický vývoj 3. Modelování vývoje dlouhodobé péče 4. Závěr |
| Preliminary scope of work in English |
| In my BA thesis, I intend to focus on the future development of public expenditures on long-term care in the Czech Republic. Long-term care includes both medical and social services to people with limited ability to perform activities of daily living due to physical or mental disorders. Care is considered to be long-term if it is provided over a period of six months or more. The expenditures on long-term care in the Czech Republic are generally expected to rise due to demographic ageing of the population.
I am going to model the volume of long-term care consumed in the future with respect to expected demographic development. Based on the volume of care consumed, I will estimate the level of overall future public expenditures on long-term care. I will use data provided by the Ministry of Health of the Czech Republic for modelling. Expected structure: 1. Introduction 2. Demographic Development Expectations 3. Modelling Long-Term Care 4.
