Abstract: This paper described the practice of medical cost control in Hubei's provincial state-owned hospitals. Their measures taken include combinations of overall planning and classification, total volume control and structural adjustment, external governance and internal management, as well as systematical management and difficulties breakthroughs. This paper proposed to further consolidate the outcomes of the abovementioned efforts by improving the fiscal compensation mechanism, furthering medical insurance payment reform, and continuing to monitor and publicize the medical expenses.
