This study aims to investigate the impact of Home and Community Based Care and Services (HCBCS) on intergenerational support from offspring, specifically examining whether HCBCS acts as a substitute or supplement. Using four waves of data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS), we employ the difference-in-differences (DID) method, along with Logit, Oprobit, and OLS models. The findings show that HCBCS boosts economic support from offspring to older adults but reduces emotional and caregiving support, indicating HCBCS has both supplementary and substitutive effects. Also, the results emphasize that the effects of HCBCS are more prominent in households with multiple offspring and urban areas. These findings have important implications for HCBCS program design, providing insights into how such services can better complement and substitute family-based intergenerational support and offering valuable evidence for policymakers to assess and enhance the effectiveness of public elderly care services.

Background: In Canada, the Indigenous population is the youngest and fastest growing, yet ongoing health disparities for Indigenous peoples are widely recognized. There is a concerning lack of research on childhood disabilities and health conditions in Indigenous populations in Canada. For children with disabilities and chronic health conditions, ongoing access to rehabilitation services, such as occupational therapy, physical therapy, speech-language pathology, and audiology, is critical in promoting positive health and developmental outcomes.

Background: Every year in France, 40% of people aged ≥80 years are hospitalized, with an average length of hospital stay of 25 days and a readmission rate of 14% to 30% within the month following discharge. This situation is putting pressure on the health care system, encouraging the reinforcement of home care to reduce avoidable hospitalization. The EPOCA remote patient monitoring (RPM) system is a medical and social telehealth solution specialized in RPM, teleconsultation, tele-expertise, and care coordination in emergency medicine and geriatrics.
