Abstract: Public-private partnerships ( PPP ) can realize public goals of improving human health through the private investors′ financial resources and professional skills. The authors summarized the three models of PPP implementation in public hospitals. 94 PPP projects with complete information from the project database operated by the Ministry of Finance were selected and analyzed. Problems identified include shortage of relevant organizational capacities and experience of government departments, low qualification requirements for potential private investors. Furthermore, these projects are faced with lack of competitiveness, insufficient awareness of the risks, lack of clear performance evaluation standards and difficulty in supervision, as well as poor attraction to private investors. Relevant countermeasures and suggestions have been put forward.
