The academic circle has discussed the relationship between social security and population health from various perspectives, including the mechanism and economic outcomes of social security affecting health, the impact of population health on social security sustainability, etc. Despite these aspects, it is note-worthy that in recent years, some new factors have emerged in the economic and social environment which need to be taken into consideration.For example, the rapid development of digital medical technology has improved the operation efficiency and health effect of medical insurance, while population aging may be detrimental to the health of older adults and increase their health burden by reducing the size of pensions. In addition, complex environmental changes can make the relationship between social security and population health more difficult to grasp. These new factors all requires more research to analyze.This Research Topic aims to collect original qualitative and/or quantitative research articles that help us to further understand the relationship between social security and population health under the new social and economic circumstances. This Research Topic calls for papers on the opportunities and challenges of social security affecting population health arising from the new environments. And we certainly also welcome research that looks at the relationship between social security and population health in a new light, including the underlying mechanism and economic outcomes of the effect of social security on population health. In sum, any original and meaningful research about social security and population health is welcomed.● Social security and population health in the new development period● Social security, digital economy, and population health● Social security, aging population, and population health● Effect of population health on the sustainability of social security● Pension levels and health of the elderly in the context of population aging● Medical insurance and health burden● Medical insurance and health inequality● Social assistance, social welfare, and population health● Effect of social security on population health and its economic outcomes● Social security reform and its health effects● Social security reform suggestions aiming at improving population health● Other original and meaningful topics related to social security and population health
