The objective of this review is to explore the care needs as assessed by the public residential aged care funding systems of Asia-Pacific countries that use both taxation and means-tested user charge.
The Asia-Pacific region is at the forefront of population aging. There is increasing reliance on residential aged care facilities to provide formal care, but limited understanding of how care needs are assessed. Most countries have adopted taxation as the primary means to levy capital for funding essential health services; funding may be means-tested for equity.
The population of interest is older adults eligible for care in residential aged care facilities who receive assistance to fund their care. Sources that address the care needs of residents and the assessments relating to care needs, as well as funding systems (taxation, means-testing), will be considered for inclusion. This review will consider any quantitative study, qualitative study, mixed method study, or report from any country in the Asia-Pacific region.
Databases to be searched include Embase, CINAHL, PubMed, Scopus, and the JBI Database for Evidence-based Practice. Additional records will be identified through the gray literature database Trove, reference lists of included studies, and relevant health organization websites. Sources published in English since 2008 will be eligible for inclusion. Two reviewers will independently screen titles, abstracts, and full-texts for inclusion. Data will be extracted and findings summarized in tabular format and narrative synthesis. Any disagreements between the reviewers will be resolved through discussion or with a third reviewer.

本次综述旨在探讨亚太地区采用税收和经济状况调查的公共养老院资助系统评估的护理需求。
亚太地区正处于人口老龄化的前沿。越来越依赖养老院提供正规护理，但对护理需求的评估方式了解有限。大多数国家都采用税收作为为基本卫生服务提供资金的主要手段；为了公平起见，资金可能需要进行经济状况调查。
本研究的目标人群是有资格在养老院接受护理的老年人，他们接受援助以支付护理费用。将纳入涉及居民护理需求和与护理需求评估相关的评估以及资助系统（税收、经济状况调查）的来源。本综述将考虑来自亚太地区任何国家的任何定量研究、定性研究、混合方法研究或报告。
将搜索的数据库包括 Embase、CINAHL、PubMed、Scopus 和 JBI 循证实践数据库。通过灰色文献数据库 Trove、纳入研究的参考文献列表以及相关卫生组织网站，将确定其他记录。自 2008 年以来以英文发表的来源有资格纳入。两名评审员将独立筛选标题、摘要和全文以进行纳入。将以表格形式和叙述性综合汇总数据。评审员之间的任何分歧将通过讨论或第三名评审员解决。
