ABSTRACT
Objective To estimate the cost of community medical aid programs for the urban poor in Shenyang, Chengdu, Xining and Yinchuan so as to provide the primary basis for improving the compensation mechanisms for such programs. Methods A survey was made on the cost consumption of six major categories in the course of health service delivery and the amount of various community health services actually delivered by the pilot community health service institutions in 2003. The cost of each service program was estimated and then the cost of medical aid programs for the urban poor was estimated. Results The per capita cost of the medical aid programs for the poor in the cities was less than 5 yuan and the total cost of the medical aid programs accounted mostly for 0.05‰ or so of the financial expenditure of each of the cities. Conclusion The government ought to make rational compensation for community medical aid programs, the cost of which is low. Setting up community health service based mechanisms of medical aid for the poor conforms to the actual condition of our country.
