Abstract:
Through a comparison of the differences between China and Australia in the models of hospital management and the roles of hospital managers, the paper expounds the specific features of the model of “decentralized powers” and “professional presidents” and the model of “centralized powers” and “expert-turned presidents”. It argues that under the pressures of both internal and external changes, including rapid socioeconomic development, the deepening of the health care reform, the effect of China's accession to the WTO on the medical and health industry, the development of a contingent of professional health care managers in China has become an inevitable trend.
