Since a critical report on China’s medical system reform was issued in mid-2005, it has become a major bone of contention. In April 2007, the State Council, China’s cabinet, decided that from this year,economically developed provinces should single out one or two cities to experiment with the urban basic medical insurance system that focuses on serious diseases. Meanwhile,the Ministry of Health invited seven research institutions to independently work out medical reform schemes. Ministry sources said that the finalized scheme would come into effect later this year.But will these efforts help to ease the problem of high medical expenses in China? And is it true that current problems of China’s medical system lie in the “over marketization” as some experts have pointed out? Professor Cai Jiangnan, from the School of Economics, Fudan University,and Professor Zhou Qiren,from the China Center for Economic Research, Peking University,put forward their different views on this issue, based on their long-term research of China ’s medical system reform.
