RESUMO
Policy tools are ways to quantitative analysis of policy text content and the construction of a "Policy Tools-Policy Objectives (X-Y Dimension)" framework to explore long-term stability and late-stage innovation of policy development. This paper reviewed the development process of medical and health policies since the founding of the People’s Republic of China, and divided 1949-2021 into four stages of reform breeding, institutional transformation, reform improvement and continuous deepening. Screening 121 medical and health policy texts issued at the national level since the founding of the People’s Republic of China, quantitatively analyzing 5 957 policy text cells from the perspective of policy tools, counting the use of policy tools in various periods, and excavating the inherent logic of policy texts, policy tools and policy objectives to derive development characteristics of internal logic deduction. The development of China’s medical and health policy in the new period will serve the people’s health in the first place, adhere to the development direction of equalization of basic public service, strengthen the coordinated development of scientific and technological innovation and talent training, build a health and healthy development system with Chinese characteristics.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE To clarify the core content of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） policy in the provinces of China， so as to provide reference for optimizing the structure of the policy system of traditional Chinese medicine in China and assisting the inheritance and innovation of TCM industry in various regions. METHODS The websites of directly affiliated organs in 31 provinces， excluding Hong Kong， Macao and Taiwan， were retrieved to collect the TCM policies released from 2000 to 2021. The importance of keywords in the TCM policies of each province was measured based on term frequency-inverse documentation frequency （TF-IDF） keyword extraction method， and the similarities and differences were analyzed among TCM policies. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS A total of 99 documents related to TCM policies of various provinces were obtained in this study， most of which were released after 2016. The theme of national TCM policy covered four aspects： building TCM talent team， perfecting TCM service system， strengthening TCM resource management and promoting TCM industry innovation. The TF-IDF values of “medical institutions”“traditional Chinese medicine”“medical treatment” were higher than other keywords in each province， indicating that the provinces paid more attention to the construction of TCM service system and the management of TCM resources than other aspects. Anhui and Jiangsu， Beijing and Henan， Hubei and Jilin， Hubei and Tianjin， and Hubei and Yunnan had the more degree of similarity in TCM policies， which all contained 16 of the same keywords. Therefore， the above regions should be encouraged to strengthen exchanges and cooperation and realize mutual promotion and joint development. Among all the keywords whose importance ratio was greater than 0.2，“ Tibetan medicine” was unique to Qinghai and Tibet，“ disease type” was unique to Guangdong， and the TF-IDF value of “supervision and management” in Beijing was higher， indicating that the emphasis of TCM policy formulation in different provinces was various. Meanwhile， the top 10 keywords of TF- IDF value in all provinces did not have words related to financial input， and the TF-IDF values of “informatization” in most provinces did not rank at the top. It is suggested to increase financial input or encourage social financing， and add “Internet+new business” in the field of TCM.
RESUMO
Objective@#To explore the structural status of school sexuality education policies in China, so as to provide a reference to optimize their effectiveness and development.@*Methods@#A total of 45 policy documents closely related to school sexuality education, released at the national level, as samples in order to construct an analytic framework of policy objectives/instruments by analyzing their textual content.@*Results@#In terms of policy objectives, school sexuality education policies focused on educational methods guidance (32.76%), and tend to underestimate the evaluation of educational effects (5.17%) and the protection of teachers and students rights and interests (5.17%), while failed to consider the creation of educational environments (0). In regards to policy tools, school sexuality education policies often used command line tools (59.45%) and capacity building tools ( 29.71% ), while the use of system change tools (2.70%) and incentive tools was lacking (0). In respect to the adaptability of policy objectives/tools, school sexuality education policies focused on using command based tools to guide educational methods ( 68.42% ), educational process management (54.55%), student literacy improvement (38.46%), and educational resource development ( 37.50% ). However, system change tools and incentive tools were scarcely used to achieve policy goals in education effectiveness evaluation, to protect teacher student rights and interests, and to improve student literacy and comprehensive social governance.@*Conclusions@#There is some deviations in the positioning of policy objectives, the selection of policy tools, and the interaction and adaptation between the two in school sex education policies, and further improvement is needed.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To compare the promotion strategies for the construction of healthy enterprises in eight provinces and municipalities of China and summarize the working experience. METHODS: The purposive sampling method was used. One to two administrators or technical experts in charge of the construction of health enterprise from each province were selected to conduct qualitative interviews, to understand the progress of construction of healthy enterprise and suggestions. Data analytic method was used to analyze the implementation strategies and management mechanism of construction of healthy enterprises. Comparative study was used to summarize and compare the similarities and differences between the content of healthy enterprise construction and the standard evaluation system. RESULTS: The policy text of construction of healthy enterprise in eight provinces and municipalities basically followed the national management idea and working principles.There were breakthroughs and innovations in implementation strategies such as Level Management, Dynamic Management and Incentive Measures. Their evaluation systems cover the four common dimensions of healthy enterprise construction, emphasizing evaluation index contents such as Health Outcome/Effect, Health Activities, and Health characteristics, highlighting local and industrial characteristics. CONCLUSION: The eight provinces and municipalities have carried out their own distinctive work in promoting the construction of healthy enterprises, and the relevant experiences can be used as reference for other places.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE：To study the current situation of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）industry policy in Guangdong- Hong Kong-Macao greater bay area ，and to provide suggestions for the follow-up planning and layout. METHODS ：The content analysis method was used to code and measure the policy text of TCM industry in Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao greater bay area issued by the central government and local government as of April 2020 from the perspective of policy tools. The current development focus and existing problems of the industry were summarized to put forward reasonable suggestion. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS：A total of 34 relevant policy texts were retrieved ，including 9 at the central government level and 25 at the local government level. In respective of essential policy tool ，the supply-oriented ，demand-oriented and environmental policy tools of TCM industry in Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao greater bay area accounted for 58.10％，22.86％ and 19.05％，respectively. Among supply-oriented policy tools ，hardware construction accounted for 40.98％，internal communication for 26.23％，quality construction for 22.95％，and international exchange for 9.84％；there was no specific implementation rules and programs for policy tools ，which affect their operability. The demand-oriented policy tools included health service （75.00％），international trade （16.67％），service outsourcing （4.17％）and government subsidies （4.17％）；the use of the latter three approaches limited the openness of the industrial market. The environmental policy tools included target planning （40.00％），access rules （25.00％）， intellectual property （30.00％）and financing support （5.00％），but needed to improve the support of laws and regulations and relevant measures.

It suggested to optimize the supply-oriented policy tools ，improve the operability of policies； pay attention to the demand-oriented and environmental policy tools ， highlight the role of marketization and standardization；pay attention to the integration of basic policy tools and industrial value chain ，and achieve the standardization ， modernization and international development of TCM in Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao greater bay area.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE： To provide reference for improving China’s national medicine policy framework. METHODS： The medicine policy documents of 2009-April 2019 were collected， and then policy texts were categorized according to national medicine policy elements of WHO. According to the number and strength of policies， the construction of national medicine policy framework was analyzed. The main reform measures of different themes were extracted and summarized. On this basis， the logic of medicine reform in China was analyzed. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS： National medicine policy framework has been established primarily， but it is not balanced， such as the number and intensity of policies on human resources and medicine financing are slightly inadequate. Analysis of China’s national medicine policy framework reveals that： （1） in the process of construction， “quality assurance” and “affordability” are the two main policy lines， and “quality improvement” and “cost reduction” are the two main policy objectives； （2） the construction of national medicine policy framework has a phased reform focus， and it has gone through a process from “demand-side reform” to “supply-side and demand-side reform”； （3） the importance of medicine procurement in the reform has been strengthened continuously. It is suggested to strengthen the balance of national medicine policy， improve human resources， medicine financing and rational medicine use policy construction； it is also suggested to strengthen top-level design， establish a multi-department collaborative decision-making and coordination mechanism， and enhance the coordination of medicine policies； in addition， the role of procurement links reform should be further played .
