政策工具视角下我国互助养老政策文本分析OACHSSCD

Mutual-aid elderly care,as a low-cost and highly socially beneficial model,provides an important approach to addressing the supply-side challenges in China's elderly care services.Based on the two dimensions of policy tools and mutual-aid elderly care service content,this stud-y conducts coding and quantitative analysis of 51 national-level mutual-aid elderly care policy doc-uments issued between 2011 and 2026.The findings reveal that:current policy documents are primarily issued in the form of notices and opinions,lacking corresponding laws and regulations;the internal utilization structure of policy tools is unbalanced,with environment-oriented policy tools accounting for the highest proportion,supply-oriented policy tools taking second place,and demand-oriented policy tools being the weakest;the content of mutual-aid elderly care services is highly concentrated on the dimension of daily living assistance,while dimensions such as health care,spiritual consolation,and cultural entertainment account for a severely insufficient propor-tion;and the cross-matching effect between policy tools and the content dimensions of mutual-aid elderly care services is suboptimal.Therefore,it is necessary to strengthen top-level policy de-sign to enhance policy standardization and binding force;optimize the allocation structure of poli-cy tools to enable synergistic efforts among the three types;and expand the content of mutual-aid elderly care services to respond to multidimensional elderly care needs,thereby promoting the sustainable development of the mutual-aid elderly care model.
