China’s most recent policy or regulation initiatives to strengthen its national healthcare service system will facilitate the provision of high-quality healthcare services at the community level, assist in resolving issues that these regulation concern the public most in the sector, and increase service equity and accessibility.

Policy to improve services and offer better training

A policy statement jointly issued by the State Council and the general offices of the Communist Party of China Central Committee in late March emphasized the importance of building on China’s experience combating COVID-19 to create a more organized, consistent, scientific, balanced, and effective healthcare system.

  • Key actions include encouraging village doctors to participate in additional education programs, concentrating on rural regions and communities to develop teams of healthcare workers, and reducing the skill gap between urban and rural locations.
  • Improvements in public health, intensive care and geriatrics training.
  • Refinement of monitoring and early warning systems to detect epidemics.
  • Boost healthcare resources by training talented individuals and improving the quality of services.
  • The government will invest in training rural and community healthcare workers.
  • The policy document emphasizes the need to improve county-level hospitals in order to better treat and diagnose major diseases.
  • Encourage top-tier hospitals to support county-level hospitals through assistance programs.
  • The growth of the family doctor system will also be supported by policies that provide families access to a range of medical insurance options and that encourage families to pay family doctors’ fees depending on the number of patients they have.

The healthcare system must offer the general populace a dependable, all-inclusive service that includes both sickness prevention and treatment in order to successfully handle health-related concerns. China will rely heavily on community-based healthcare organizations to provide reliable family doctor services in public health, basic healthcare, and health management.
