The head of the World Health Organization (WTO) yesterday warned of worsening health in the country's vast rural areas while praising the government for its commitment on improving healthcare in the countryside.
“The health indicators have failed to improve in pace with economic indicators.” said Margared Chan when addressing a conference on rural primary healthcare in
“The health gap between rural and urban areas has grown even wider and health in parts of rural China is deteriorating(恶化) ”she said adding medical costs are rising faster than the growth of per capital income in rural areas.
She said she appreciated the government's efforts and plans to build a medical system for all people. Saying “when fair and accessible public health services become the clear targets of a country's public health policy people's health will improve.”
The WTO chief said she noticed that the tasks on improving people's well-being in the report by Party chief Hu Jintao at the 17 th National Congress of the Communist Party of China included a basic medical insurance system for urban dwellers and a cooperative medical care system in rural areas.
She said recent WTO research has found that diseases are the source of poverty for 30 to 50 percent of the rural population of 737 million.
A growing number of rural people especially the aged are suffering from various diseases; however few have access to decent healthcare she told the conference.
Chan criticized the practice of allowing healthcare services to be commercialized in rural areas warning it will cause the patients more suffering.
The government has pledged to provide its population with basic medical care by 2020.
It's expanding medical care through the Rural Cooperative Medical Scheme a plan under which subscribers(受捐者) are provided with 50 yuan($6.4) per person―20 yuan ($2.6) each from the central and local governments and 10 yuan ($1.3) from the individual.
Vice-Minister of Health Chen Xiaohong said nearly 85 percent of the country's rural area or 2 429 counties are participating in the plan.
