Improving China's medical payment and reimbursement system is a key priority for the Chinese government. But in attempting to reform this sector, leaders have created a complex structure of payment schemes, including "pay by service," "pay by disease," and "pay by diagnosis." The medical reimbursement landscape is also characterized by a confusing web of insurance plans, including "basic medical", "commercial", and "critical illness" medical coverage. Understanding how these systems work and what China's priorities are in reshaping them is critical knowledge for companies operating in this sector.
To provide companies with a better understanding of this system and suggestions on how to navigate this market, AmCham Shanghai is holding a briefing on China's medical payment and reimbursement landscape from 3:00 to 5:30 PM on Wednesday, August 29 at the AmCham Shanghai's Conference Center. The session will feature a briefing on the current system by Wang Haiyin from the Shanghai Health Development Research Center, and an overview of China's strategic priorities and future plans in this field by L.E.K. experts, followed by a Q&A discussion.

3:00-3:30 PM Check-in and networking
3:30-4:30 PM Presentation by Dr. Wang
4:30-4:50 PM Q&A with Dr. Wang
