Abstract

Based on the data of “China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study”(CHARLS 2015), the paper discusses the characteristics and rules of out-patient medical treatment for the middle-old-age group (36-75 years) in China. The founding is that there were no differences in the sex, age, urban and rural distribution of the residence, marital status, and in the same way in the self-sense of health, self-sense of medical satisfaction, self-assessment of physical condition, self-sense of physical condition; there is a significant impact on whether to see a doctor as the case of a disease. The results show that even middle-old-age group do not pay attention to disease and health management, and irrational medical treatment behavior is more embodied in the cognitive bias of disease, overconfidence in disease self-healing and the restriction of economic ability, which are also reflected in the differences between urban and rural areas of residence.
