Features: The countryside is the foundation of China's economic development, social stability, and national self-reliance. The provision of health services and the healthcare status of rural residents are undoubtedly the most prominent indicators of the development level of rural healthcare, as well as an important guarantee for social stability and economic development. Supported and funded by the National Outstanding Young Talent Fund, the former Ministry of Education Cross-Century Talent Fund, and other programs, this book conducts systematic research on health institutions at all levels, 49 townships, and 174 villages across 12 counties (cities, districts) in three eastern provinces (municipalities). Through qualitative and quantitative analysis of 9,781 households, it examines the key issues, root causes, and mechanisms in the implementation of medical, prevention, and healthcare functions in rural areas, explores suitable development models and approaches for China's rural healthcare system in terms of mechanisms, organizational systems, and management systems, as well as the corresponding reform policies and logical steps.
