The main health indicators of the Chinese are generallybetter than the average level of middle- and high-income countries,and China has achieved the UN's Millennium Goals in this regardahead of schedule. Furthermore, China has established a completemedical and health system that is guided by the Constitution, basedon civil laws and regulations, laws and administrative regulationson health, and local regulations, and directed by the outlines,programs, and plans of the health sector. The system has provedeffective in maintaining sound doctor-patient relations, addressingmedical disputes with impartiality, and ensuring citizens' right tohealth.
The reform of the medical sector has produced noticeableresults. Within a short period of time, China was able to achievethe following: developing the world's largest basic medicalinsurance network that covers all citizens, providing insurance forpatients of serious diseases, enabling patients to receiveemergency medical services, and improving medical assistance. Allthis has provided institutional guarantee that patients have accessto medical services. The state has gained effective control overserious infectious diseases, has kept the spread of AIDS at a lowlevel, has achieved the tuberculosis control target of the UN'sMillennium Goals ahead of schedule, has reduced the number ofschistosome infections to the lowest level in history, and became apolio-free country in 2000.

After many years of hard work, a new stage has been reached inChina's medical and health services. This has not only made theChinese people healthier, but has also created a model suited tothe country's prevailing conditions that is able to ensure people'sright to health. This model has the following features:
-- Prioritizing health and fitness. The government placespeople's health at the forefront of its development strategies,based on China's prevailing reality, incorporates the awareness ofmaintaining and improving people's health into the decision-makingprocess of policies and the formulation and implementation of lawsand regulations, and strives to achieve sound and coordinateddevelopment between healthy lifestyles, working conditions, thenatural environment, and the economy and society.

More efforts have beenfocused on the prevention and control of chronic, endemic andoccupational diseases. In order to reduce the occurrences ofillnesses, China's medical sector is striving to learn more aboutthe patterns and development of health-related issues, emphasizingearly diagnosis, treatment and recovery.
-- Nonprofit services. The basic medical and healthcare serviceswill continue to be basically nonprofit, and made available to allcitizens as a public product. Public hospitals are the pillar ofthe medical service system, and steps will be taken to ensureuniversal access to public-health services.
-- Equality and benefit for all. The state will continue toensure full coverage of health and medical services. Focusing onrural areas and communities, the gaps in health conditions betweenurban and rural areas, between different localities and betweendifferent groups will be gradually narrowed, so that everyone hasequal access to basic health services.
-- Universal participation and sharing of benefits. Thegovernment will continue to assume the leading role, while privateorganizations and individuals are encouraged to participate. Thegoal is to involve all citizens in the building and development ofthe medical care system, with the benefits jointly shared by all.The government will appropriately handle its relationship with themarket, so that the former can play its due role in the basicmedical and healthcare sector and that the market can provide morechoices in the non-basic medical care sector.
