FINANCING CHINA'S HEALTH SYSTEM:
Systems of finance:
China's health care finance system consists of three formal systems and an informal component. Gongfei yiliao or Government Employee Health Insurance, provides coverage for government workers at all political divisional levels (central, provincial, county, township, and village), including officials of labor unions, youth's and women's leagues, the staff of cultural, educational, health and research institutes and students at approved colleges and universities. The government is solely responsible for the financing of this system. In 1992, 30 million people were covered by the gongfei yiliao system. Health services are mainly provided by public hospitals, but larger organizations with more than 200 employees usually set up their own clinics. The beneficiaries of gongfei yiliao are required to seek health services at appointed hospitals of the organization, and the charge for the services is reimbursed by the gongfei yiliao based on the government fee schedule.
