Abstract: Concept of coordinated care delivery is clearly defined,before a comparative analysis is made between such a concept and the integrated care delivery concept which is popular overseas and similar.On such basis,a theory framework is established for building and implementing such care delivery in line with the integrated theory of care delivery systems.Coordinated care delivery system now in place in China aims at rationally delivering medical resources,services and patients to primary institutions,by means of efficiently distributing resources and service systems and integrating care delivery flows,thus offering patients with cost effective and appropriate services and optimizing the care delivery system.
