Features: Community health service contracts are an effective financing method for the current development of community health services in China. They also represent a relatively ideal model for financing, service delivery, and management, playing a significant role in the advancement of community health services. However, they are still in a preliminary stage of development, facing numerous challenges and difficulties. These areas can be considered unexplored or minimally researched, yet they are urgently needed and demand practical solutions. This research project approaches the topic from both theoretical and practical perspectives, focusing on the following aspects: the service content of community health service contracts, the exploration of management and supervision mechanisms for community health service contracts, the financing and cost aspects of community health service contracts, the strategies and methods for developing and promoting community health service contracts, and the establishment of contract systems for community health service contracts. The goal is to identify suitable, effective management strategies, methods, and approaches to guide and resolve related issues, as well as to develop and steer the healthy development of contract-based community health services.
