Associations between retirement and changes in health care use have not been shown in a longitudinal setting. In the Finnish universal health care system, transition into retirement from employment entails loss of access to occupational health care that provides easily accessible primary health care services, which may cause changes in utilization of other health care sectors. The aim of this study was to find out whether transition into old-age retirement is associated with change in utilization of private health care. The panel data consist of a 30% random sample of the Finnish population aged 62–75 in 2006–2011. Register data on National Health Insurance compensation were linked to socio-demographic covariates. Fixed-effects logistic and Poisson regression models were used. Adjusted for changes in covariates, retirement from employment was associated especially with private general practitioner visits but also with specialist visits among both women and men. Interaction analyses showed that retirement was associated with an increase in private care use only among those with higher-than-median income. The results may indicate preferences for quick access to care, mistrust toward the universal system, and problems of the public system in delivering needed services.

Justice in health care and the allocation of scarce medical resources must be analyzed differently in affluent as compared to economically weaker societies. The protective functions of the state must be extended to cover basic needs for those too poor to meet them on their own. Medical needs are a high priority, since poor health hampers the ability to secure other basic needs. The state may operate as either a health care provider or supervisor, guaranteeing that citizens be treated fairly by nongovernmental institutions. Two-tiered systems with a vigorous private health care sector are compatible with the explicit right to health care, provided the private tier operates without directly or indirectly draining public funds.

AbstractIntroduction: Outdoor exercises like running have shown increased participant adherence. Objective: To evaluate the use of pre-participation health evaluation in street runners. Methods: One hundred subjects of both genders (18 to 80 years) answered a structured questionnaire. A descriptive statistic was used along with the odds ratio calculation between different genders (male versus female) and health systems (public versus private care). Results: Around 52% of the interviewees were female. Regarding the pre-participation examination, 61% have not performed this procedure. Regarding the type of health care, those who had private health care performed more the pre-participation evaluation (47.5% of the total) when compared to those who had the public health care (25.6% of the total). Regarding the gender, 59.6% of the women performed pre-participation evaluation versus only 18.8% from the men. Conclusion: The pre-participation examination still needs to be better absorbed by street running practitioners.Keywords: health systems, medical care, running.
