Current Status,Problems,and Countermeasures of Health Investment in China
This study analyzes the status,issues,and strategies of investment in China's medical and health sector.It underscores the critical role of a healthy workforce and health industry in driving economic growth,noting their importance for both public welfare and high-quality socio-economic progress.Through horizontal and vertical comparisons,the study highlights key issues:the low proportion of health expenditure to GDP,insufficient government investment,and an underdeveloped financing structure relative to international standards.Based on these findings,the study recommends:(1) shifting traditional perspectives on health investment to emphasize its critical importance,and incorporating health sector development goals into relevant performance evaluations;(2) increasing the scale of investment,establishing a stable,sustainable,and diversified government funding mechanism,integrating various forms of social resources,and expanding health financing channels;(3) enhancing investment efficiency by adopting a population health indicator-based framework for investment,monitoring,and evaluation,thereby advancing health governance modernization.The study advocates for positioning the medical and health sector at the core of economic development to achieve a synergistic advancement of health and the economy.
