Perspective: This policy document is a "happy for all" document:
1. National needs: More and more residents need more multi-level and diversified medical services and the immediate use of international cutting-edge biotechnology and related drugs.
2. The needs of the social medical industry: At present, it is the reshuffle period of the mainland's social medical universities, and more international high-standard medical service practitioners are needed to appropriately promote the improvement of the level and business connotation of private medical care in the mainland. At the same time, the overall development of commercial insurance in mainland China is still at a very initial level, and the landing of a large number of foreign-funded hospitals can accelerate the popularization of commercial health insurance and increase the integration efficiency of private medical institutions, doctors, consumers and insurance companies in mainland China.
3. International investment needs: It is necessary to give clear encouragement and confidence to international investors, so that they can continue to be optimistic and increase their confidence in the potential investment in the Chinese market.
4. National needs: At present, the world as a whole is in a downward trend of economy, and each country or economy is trying to find ways to ensure its own sustainable economic development, and the mainland is currently in the country with the largest aging population in the world and facing the most challenges, so there will be a lot of demand for all kinds of medical care services, and it is indeed necessary for all kinds of excellent medical service providers from all over the world to invest in China to provide relevant differentiated services.
We look forward to the early implementation of more detailed policies.
