Abstract:
In order to set up a medical security system suitable for laborers and solve for them the problem of inadequate and expensive medical services,the city of Shenzhen started on March 1,2005(apilot) cooperative medical care for laborers in the four neighborhoods of Buji,Longgang,Longhua and Shajing on the basis of an earlier model.The new model,which stipulated that each person paying 12 yuan each month,with the employer paying 8 yuan and the individual laborer paying 4 yuan,was entitled to both outpatient and inpatient medical services,was popular with both businesses and laborers.At present the number of people participating in the new model of cooperative medical care for laborers exceeded 1 million,the number of designated medical institutions was gradually increasing,and medical expenses were put under control.
