IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PRINCIPLE OF FULL INSURANCE COVERAGE IN THE INSURANCE OF MUNICIPAL PROPERTY IN POLAND

In Vietnam, continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) with a straight line and one bag was first used in 1998. Because the complication rate, mainly as a result of catheter obstruction and peritonitis, was very high (50%), treatment was stopped after the first 10 cases. Use of the modality resumed only in 2001. However, because of skepticism and concern on both the part of physicians and patients about the effectiveness of peritoneal dialysis (PD) and about the infection risk, CAPD developed very slowly. Until late 2004, patient numbers were very limited, and there was only one PD unit in the entire country. Since then, CAPD using Y-set and two-bag system—plus routine omentectomy during catheter insertion and better patient selection and training in bag exchange—has resulted in much better outcomes with fewer complications, and the technique has been developing far faster. This success, together full insurance coverage of both dialysis and erythropoietin since 2005, has led to a steep rise in the number of patients on PD and the number of PD units. As a result, despite the initial difficulty, the number of PD patients increased to nearly 700 in just 3 years (2004 – 2007), while it took more than 20 years before more than 3000 patients were receiving hemodialysis. Automated PD and icodextrin are not yet available in Vietnam.

Drought recurrently occurs in Indonesia, and it is one of the climate-related hazards that has a major impact on agriculture and food security. However, there is no a scheme, which allows any damages in agriculture associated with drought event will get an insurance. This study aims to analyze the climate index based on the potency of drought in Pacitan District, East Java to support the development of climate index insurance as an effort to climate change adaptation. This study used a climate index derived from monthly rainfall data, which was calculated based on the historical burn analysis (HBA) method. We examined climate index and measured exit value as representing of the lowest value which payment of insurance should be fully paid. Our results showed that the value varies among sub-districts in Pacitan. Kebonagung sub-district revealed the highest exit value (89 mm), which means the insurance company should pay the full insurance coverage if the rainfall in the period insured below 89 mm. The lowest exit value (18 mm) was in Pringkuku sub-district. Our finding revealed that the index HBA is suitable to be applied in regions with limited climate data. Furthermore, our approach could be one of the strategies to cope with drought to stabilize rice production during the dry season. For wide implementation, supports from government through regulation is needed.
