An exploration for China's reform of public hospitals / 中华医院管理杂志

ABSTRACT

A description of the positioning of public hospitals in China, and an exploration of such issues as their compensation mechanism, management system, and operation mechanism. The authors hold that it is imperative to maintain a reasonable balance of the government, society and individuals in their share of healthcare expenditure, prioritize funding recipients, and encourage medical cost payment based on disease diagnosis groupings; to precisely distinguish the ownership, operation right, decision right, and supervision right of public hospitals, for building an effective incentive and supervision mechanism; to further consolidate the president responsibility system and target responsibility system, build a flexible talent use system and distribution mechanism, build a better quality control mechanism, a strict expenditure and cost control mechanism, and a scientific talent development mechanism as well.
