Abstract
This article examines the need for public long-term care (LTC) insurance within an overlapping generations model. The discussion revolves around two items: financing methods and inefficiency of privately provided LTC insurance. Special attention is paid to the inefficiency caused by the individual behavior regarding health investment under a privately provided LTC insurance system. The authors' analysis shows that this inefficiency is improved by introducing public LTC insurance.
