Objective:To analyze the distribution and differential characteristics of supply and demand preferences for chronic disease continuity services in rural areas,and propose optimization strategies for such continuity services from the perspective of balanced development.Methods:Based on the KANO model,a questionnaire on continuity services was designed,covering 21 functional elements across 3 core dimensions.The survey was conducted in 6 counties in central China from June to December 2024.The Mann-Whitney U test was used to analyze the differences and degrees of discrepancy in supply and demand preferences;a Boston Matrix was constructed to identify distribution characteristics and commonalities;and the Better-Worse coefficient and sensitivity coefficient were calculated to analyze the attributes and priority of the functional elements.Results:There was a significant imbalance between supply and demand,with the matching rate of demand attributes being less than 50%.Both parties had limitations in their understanding of continuity services,which were more pronounced on the demand side.The proportion of high-dimensional attributes was only 23.34%,and the demand side was unaware of the value of information continuity and collaboration with the supply side.Conclusions:The supply-demand differences stem from the combined effects of backward service concepts,insufficient transmission of institutional and mechanism reforms,and underutilization of primary-level functions.Optimization should be implemented in three aspects:internalizing the behaviors of the supply side,enhancing the intention of the demand side,and activating primary-level functions.

Objective:To construct a scientific and reasonable evaluation index system for the service capacity of integrated Traditional Chinese and Western medicine trauma rescue,providing a tool for assessing the synergistic efficacy of regional trauma rescue systems.Methods:Based on the collaborative governance theory framework,an initial indicator pool was developed through literature analysis and focus group discussions.Two rounds of Delphi expert consultation were conducted to screen indicators,and the analytic hierarchy process was used to determine weights.Results:The final system included 5 first-level indicators,19 second-level indicators,and 45 third-level indicators.Experts positive coefficients(0.923),authority coefficient(0.929)and coordination coefficient(0.24)met requirements.Conclusions:The index system demonstrates scientific rigor and operability,supporting the standardized construction and dynamic optimization of integrated Traditional Chinese and Western medicine trauma rescue services.

Objective:To analyze the key factors,hierarchical structure and internal action paths that affect the ability improvement of medical insurance management personnel in public hospitals,and to provide theoretical basis and practical reference for strengthening the construction of medical insurance management talent teams in hospitals.Methods:Through the mutual verification of literature analysis,policy interpretation and interview results,an index system of influencing factors for the ability improvement of medical insurance management personnel in public hospitals was constructed.A hybrid method combining DEMATEL-ISM-MICMAC was adopted to define the relationships,divide the levels and conduct driving force-dependence analysis of the influencing factors.Results:There are a total of 12 key factors influencing the ability improvement of medical insurance management personnel in public hospitals.Through the ISM model,these influencing factors can be classified into four levels:surface factors,intermediate factors,deep factors,and essential factors.With the help of MICMAC analysis,it can be classified into the spontaneous factor group of"low driving force-low dependence",the independent factor group of"high driving force-low dependence"and the dependent factor group of"low driving force-high dependence".Conclusion:Policy interpretation and knowledge reserve are the fundamental driving factors for ability improvement;Professional ethics and responsibilities are the deep-seated supporting factors of the ability system.The regulatory capacity of medical insurance funds is a key outcome and performance manifestation.

Objective:To analyze and evaluate the current state of the collaborative network among representative medical and public health institutions in Xiangtan city,Hunan Province.Methods:A comprehensive analysis was conducted using social network analysis and focus group interviews to examine the structure and status of five types of collaborative networks among key institutions—hospitals,specialized public health agencies,and primary healthcare facilities—in the case study area.Results:Significant urban-rural differences were observed in the collaborative networks.The further education network was loosely structured,with limited participation from public health institutions.The training network exhibited higher density,with district-level public health institutions and county-level hospitals serving as the core actors in urban and rural areas,respectively.In the supervision and assessment network,rural areas demonstrated multi-stakeholder involvement,whereas urban areas were predominantly led by public health institutions,with district-level medical institutions largely absent.Both infectious and chronic disease information reporting networks were more tightly integrated in rural areas,while urban areas showed insufficient participation from medical institutions.Conclusions:It is essential to strengthen cross-level collaboration among medical and public health institutions,improve a two-way evaluation and incentive mechanism tailored to urban and rural settings,and promote data-sharing initiatives to facilitate the circulation and integration of medical and public health information.

Under the background of the in-depth advancement of the Healthy China strategy,as the basic unit of health education,how to activate the health education function of the family has become an important issue in current health governance.From the perspective of empowerment theory,this article sorts out the basic logic of health education carried out by families through case studies,systematically analyzes the functional positioning of the empowerment subjects(dominant type,executive type,and supplementary type),and reveals how these empowerment subjects support and promote the implementation of family health education through formal and informal empowerment methods.And explore the empowerment mechanism of family health education from"empowerment conditions-empowerment process-empowerment results",and deeply analyze the influence of the combination mode of empowerment subjects on the empowerment mechanism.The research suggests that at the institutional level,a collaborative mechanism among three types of empowerment subjects should be established.At the practical level,it is necessary to ensure the implementation of empowerment,stimulate the initiative within families,and promote an optimized path for the precise matching of health education content with the differentiated needs of families.The research provides new perspectives and strategies for health education at the family level,which is of great theoretical and practical significance for promoting the practice of health education.

Objective:To examine the manifestations and causes of administrative burden among primary healthcare professionals,and to explore its impact on job burnout through the mediating role of role conflict,providing theoretical and empirical support for governance-level burden-reduction strategies.Methods:An exploratory sequential mixed-methods design was employed,focusing on primary healthcare professionals in Shandong Province.In the first phase,in-depth interviews were conducted with 175 participants;in the second phase,a questionnaire survey of 1,096 participants and follow-up interviews with 107 participants were carried out.Results:The proportions of respondents who reported"heavy"or"very heavy"burdens were 62.7%for inspection,54.8%for documentation,51.8%for reporting,and 24.4%for meetings.Structural equation modeling showed that administrative burden had a direct effect on job burnout(0.150)and an indirect effect through role conflict(0.093).Qualitative findings further indicated that administrative burden largely stemmed from public health traceability requirements and medical insurance policies,and operated through both resource-based and value-based conflicts.Conclusions:Primary healthcare professionals face considerable administrative burdens,which may heighten job burnout through role conflict.Governance reforms should optimize inspection and assessment,streamline data reporting,refine record-keeping,and promote collaborative governance to break the chain of institutional pressure leading to burnout.

Objective:To analyze the coupling and coordination relationship between multi-level medical security and medical resource allocation,and reveal the obstructive factors and dynamic evolution characteristics of spatial differences in the coordinated development of the two systems.Method:Based on the panel data of 31 provinces in China(excluding Hong Kong,Macao and Taiwan),a multi-level medical security and medical resource allocation index system was constructed.Entropy weight method,coupling coordination degree model,obstacle degree model,Dagum Gini coefficient and other methods were used to analyze the coupling coordination situation,obstacle factors and spatial distribution characteristics of the two systems.Result:The coupling and coordination degree of multi-level medical security and medical resource allocation in our country has steadily improved,but the overall level is still relatively low and is affected by multiple obstructive factors.The overall spatial difference in the coupling coordination degree of the two systems shows a downward trend,and this difference is mainly caused by the differences between regions.Conclusion:It is recommended to enhance policy coordination and departmental collaboration to improve the level of coupling and coordination.Build an efficient medical insurance payment mechanism and improve the quality of medical resource supply.Implement differentiated regional policies to promote balanced regional development.

Objective:To explore the regional equity status and dynamic evolution patterns of primary healthcare resource allocation in China from 2009 to 2023.Methods:Based on statistical data of China's primary healthcare resources,the Dagum Gini coefficient decomposition method was used to analyze regional equity differences in primary healthcare resource allocation in China from 2009 to 2023,and Kernel density estimation was employed to investigate the spatial distribution and dynamic evolution process of resource allocation.Results:From 2009 to 2023,the total volume of primary healthcare resources in China continued to grow,with institutions,beds,and personnel increasing by 15.20%,65.53%,and 101.83%respectively,but significant regional disparities persist.Different types of resource allocation showed divergent equity trends:the Gini coefficient for personnel allocation decreased from 0.14 to 0.07,while the Gini coefficient for bed allocation increased from 0.15 to 0.22,and institutional allocation remained relatively stable.Kernel density estimation revealed that personnel allocation transformed from a bimodal distribution to a concentrated unimodal distribution,while bed allocation became more dispersed.Conclusion:China's primary healthcare resource allocation exhibits a divergent phenomenon with concurrent improvement in personnel allocation equity and deterioration in bed allocation equity.It is necessary to establish a differentiated allocation system with targeted policies,implement regional coordinated development strategies,improve monitoring and evaluation mechanisms,and strengthen technological support.

Objective:In accordance with the urban spatial structure and functional positioning outlined in the General Plan for the Overall Urban Development of Beijing(2016-2035),this study analyzed the allocation and equity of human resources in the Beijing Center for Disease Control and Prevention(CDC)system from 2019 to 2023,aiming to provide a reference for future planning.Methods:Based on the Plan,Beijing was divided into five structural regions.Descriptive statistical analysis,the Gini coefficient,and the Theil index were used to comprehensively evaluate the allocation and equity of regional human resources.Results:From 2019 to 2023,the total number of human resources in the Beijing CDC system showed a slow growth trend,with an overall shortage in staffing;however,the quality structure of personnel was relatively good.Equity among the structural regions gradually improved,as indicated by the annual decrease in both the Gini coefficient and the total Theil index.The contribution of inter-group differences to the total Theil index was greater than that of intra-group differences.Conclusions:There is a certain gap between the current human resource allocation in the Beijing CDC system and the requirements of non-capital function relocation and functional positioning of each structural region.It is recommended to align with urban planning,increase the number of personnel performing public health functions,and establish human resource allocation standards,plans,and working mechanisms that meet the development needs of each structural region,thereby better serving the functional positioning of the capital city and the health of its residents.

Objective:This study aims to analyze the focus and existing shortcomings of informal elderly care policy in China,and to provide references for policy system optimization.Methods:A two-dimensional analysis framework of"policy instruments-participating actors"was constructed and a content analysis method was applied to quantitatively analyze 34 relevant policy texts on informal elderly care(2011-2025),aiming to reveal the structural features and evolution logic of the policy system.Results:The policy evolution has undergone three stages,including institutional initiation,regulated development,and systematic deepening.In terms of policy tools,supply-side,environmental,and demand-side tools accounted for 39.6%,33.6%,and 26.8%,respectively,with the structure transitioning from a"supply-dominated"to a diversified synergistic model of"supply optimization+environmental empowerment+demand stimulation".In terms of participating actors,government departments(27.7%)played a dominant role,technology enterprises showed increased participation(20.6%),while family members remained underrepresented(9.2%).Conclusion:It is necessary to further optimize the structure of policy tool,strengthen social participation and family support systems,promote the deep integration of technology and humanistic care,and enhance the systematicness and effectiveness of the policy system.
