Description

Guoqiu Liu and co-authors study health related poverty risk among rural households in Jiangxi, China, in a 2025 paper. China has cut poverty sharply, yet illness can still push a lifted household back under the line. The team surveyed households that had recently left poverty to find what raises or lowers that risk.

Among two hundred fifty five households, about one in five stood vulnerable to health poverty. Heavy medical bills and lost work raised the risk most. Good chronic disease care and stored assets or strong social ties lowered it. Basic health insurance, though, linked to higher risk, hinting at weak cover for the poorest. The authors draw lessons for safety net design.
