abstract: 'Expanding the coverage of health-care insurance is a tool toward
achieving universal health coverage and reducing financial barriers to
care. Therefore, understanding the factors that affect the expansion of
health insurance is important for policymakers. The study aimed at
assessing the variables that affected the decisions to purchase health
insurance in Iran. We analyzed data gathered from a national survey of
health-care utilization in Iran that covered over 23,000 households. We
identified subsets of the data that represented purchasing decisions.
Increase in age, education, income, wealth, and the opportunity of
working in the governmental sector increased the probability of
purchasing BHI and CHI coverage. Past utilization of inpatient and
outpatient care increased the probability of purchasing BHI and CHI,
respectively. Evidence of adverse selection and wide socioeconomic
differences in insurance purchase decisions were observed throughout the
study. However, most significant factors were not easily influenced by
policy decisions. The findings suggest that it might be very difficult
to achieve universal insurance coverage unless nation-wide nonvoluntary
policies are implemented.'
