While growth policies have been successful, much work is still needed in many countries to establish an adequate and farsighted policy framework in the areas of pensions, health insurance, and labor market policies. 410 0$aIMF Working Papers; Working Paper ;$vNo. 2006/272 606 $aPopulation aging$zAsia 606 $aAge distribution (Demography)$zAsia 606 $aMacroeconomics$2imf 606 $aPublic Finance$2imf 606 $aHealth Policy$2imf 606 $aDemography$2imf 606 $aEconomics of the Elderly$2imf 606 $aEconomics of the Handicapped$2imf 606 $aNon-labor Market Discrimination$2imf 606 $aDemographic Economics: General$2imf 606 $aAnalysis of Health Care Markets$2imf 606 $aAggregate Factor Income Distribution$2imf 606 $aNational Government Expenditures and Welfare Programs$2imf 606 $aPopulation & demography$2imf 606 $aHealth systems & services$2imf 606 $aPublic finance & taxation$2imf 606 $aAging$2imf 606 $aPopulation and demographics$2imf 606 $aHealth care$2imf 606 $aIncome$2imf 606 $aSocial assistance spending$2imf 606 $aPopulation aging$2imf 606 $aPopulation$2imf 606 $aMedical care$2imf 606 $aExpenditures, Public$2imf 607 $aChina, People's Republic of$2imf 615 0$aPopulation aging 615 0$aAge distribution (Demography) 615 7$aMacroeconomics 615 7$aPublic Finance 615 7$aHealth Policy 615 7$aDemography 615 7$aEconomics of the Elderly 615 7$aEconomics of the Handicapped 615 7$aNon-labor Market Discrimination 615 7$aDemographic Economics: General 615 7$aAnalysis of Health Care Markets 615 7$aAggregate Factor Income Distribution 615 7$aNational Government Expenditures and Welfare Programs 615 7$aPopulation & demography 615 7$aHealth systems & services 615 7$aPublic finance & taxation 615 7$aAging 615 7$aPopulation and demographics 615 7$aHealth care 615 7$aIncome 615 7$aSocial assistance spending 615 7$aPopulation aging 615 7$aPopulation 615 7$aMedical care 615 7$aExpenditures, Public 700 $aHeller$b Peter$0153472 801 0$bDcWaIMF 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910826869903321 996 $aIs Asia Prepared for an Aging Population$93948986 997 $aUNINA
