"Without the health of the whole nation, there will be no comprehensive well-off society." From exploration to breakthrough, from change to innovation; from the initial small steps to the current steady pace, Zhenjiang's medical reform has taken one step at a time, and has embarked on a path of reform that is in line with reality and unique.
In December 2014, General Secretary Xi Jinping visited Zhenjiang and pointed out that it is necessary to promote the downward shift of the focus of medical and health work and the downward decline of medical and health resources, promote the equalization of basic public services in urban and rural areas, provide the people with safe, effective, convenient and cheap public health and basic medical services, and truly solve the problems of difficulty and high cost of medical treatment for grassroots people.
As a national medical reform pilot city and the first batch of national health city construction pilot cities, Zhenjiang, Jiangsu has continuously promoted the expansion and sinking of high-quality medical resources and the balanced regional layout in recent years, and has made significant progress in the construction of grassroots medical and health institutions, medical alliances, tiered diagnosis and treatment, remote consultation, etc., making the medical reform results truly warm thousands of households.
