Abstract:
The paper describes the short and medium term (within 2 to 5 years) priorities that any region in China right now faces in working out and implementing its regional health planning, viz. the coordinated development strategy of medicine and health, medical security and social economy. The authors hold that to achieve the coordinated growth of the health cause and society, it is imperative to overcome in the short run logically related obstacles in four aspects: ineffective solution to the apparent problems followed with interest by both the social and health sectors and lack of effective operating conditions accompanying medical insurance reform, both resulting in the lack of a driving force in the reform within hospitals; difficulty in achieving breakthroughts in the development of the health cause; and the probability of a regional health planning becoming a mere formality because of the above factors. In addition, the fact that reform of medical and health institutions in their setup and ownership of property rights lags behind macroscopic social economic reform obscures the explanation of and solution to the above problems. Based on the research results, the paper sets forth the priorities in short and medium term planning.
