Let's stay with the proposed medical reforms as we return to our studio discussion.
Q1: Low-income earners are among the most vulnerable when it comes to medical treatment. How effective has the government been in providing affordable health care to these people?
Q2: China has spearheaded numerous reforms over the past few years to improve public health care. Where areas in this sector will be targeted for reform in 2011?
Q3: Reform of public hospitals remains one of the key priorities. Do you share the view that health care reform will stall unless there is a more balanced relationship between public and private hospitals?
Q4: China's health care spending increased 8.7 percent last year, accounting for 4.5 percent of GDP. By contrast, average health care expenditure among EU countries doubles to around 9 percent of GDP, while the US nearly triples China at almost 16 percent. What conclusion can we draw from these comparisons?
Q5: Many countries face similar health care challenges as China faces in providing accessible, quality care for their people. What can China learn from other countries' approach to tackling these problems?
Q6: China's health care reform must be tailored to the country's specific needs. What are some of the key factors the country must take into account？
Q7: Can you share with us the fundamental criteria of a good health care system?
