Abstract |
Differences in the socioeconomic characteristics and morbidity between members of German private and statutory health insurance funds and also between several statutory health insurances have been shown for adults. We used data from the National Health Survey for Children and Adolescents (KiGGS) to study differences in sociodemographic characteristics, health risks, morbidity, and health service use in child and adolescent insurants of different types of health insurance funds (Ersatzkasse, Allgemeine Ortskrankenkasse, Betriebskrankenkasse , Innungskrankenkasse, other statutory health insurance funds, private health insurance). Differences in the proportion of respondents with a migration background, somatic diseases, psychopathological problems, and contact with a dentist between the different health insurance fund types were found. These results should be considered in studies on health inequalities, which often focus solely on differences between statutory and private health insurance. Our results are also of relevance for health services research using the claims data of health insurance funds. |
