Abstract:
As introduced in the paper,Australian government subsidize the public hospitals with all their budget needs as compensation,with the two levels of governments constituting the largest buyer of health products and services in the country.In addition,the government supports the hospitals with their facilities.A rational government investment mechanism is proposed with reference to such a model for the ongoing reform of public hospitals in China.
