Our children commercial health insurance is still in a blank area of the commercial health insurance. Especially the treatment of children susceptible to major diseases cannot get sufficient economic support and compensation. The development of commercial medical insurance for children is imperative.

But the status quo shows Cooperative Medical System popularize nationally since2002and rural children has gotten a high popularity of social health insurance. And urban residents’ medical insurance policy inclusive all urban children were proposed in2012, so the popularity of urban children’s social insurance is very low and economically developed areas established a pilot nationally.

Children’s social insurance system has been established with low levels of health insurance.Then the paper expresses the children’s commercial health insurance status in our country. The products Commercial children’s health insurance has vast amount, few species and high homogeneity.The last part of this chapter gives us the reasons of commercial health insurance developing unsatisfactorily, including:(A) The insurance company.

Characteristics of differing Children’s health insurance products make their products with more complex risk. Functions of commercial health insurance offered in the market coincide with that of Children’s social health insurance.(B) The insured. Health insurance market demand is strong. The actual purchase is less, and children’s products demand is lagging in the entire demand that also prevent children’s medical insurance of commercial development.(C) Medical institutions. The pursuit of economic interests is culprit of hindering the development of children’s commercial health insurance. (D) Government. Regulations related with existing child medical security regulate the social insurance, and lack the limits on commercial insurance.
