Public Hospitals Restructure To Meet Market Demand

Executive Summary
Some public hospitals in China will undergo restructuring such that social funds and participation will help in the development of a system for medical treatment and health care services. Non-profit organizations will follow pricing regulated by the government and a unified market demand, while the rest of the autonomous hospitals are free to set their own fees. With China's health reform plan being implemented, a new framework for treatment and health care will be established by 2010. Future directions in the reform include: implementation of medical industry management; legal administration and entrepreneurship in hospitals; and practice of hospital directorship. Analysts believe the commercialization of hospitals will promote long-term improvement of China's medical system. (Click here for more - Chinese Language)
