Call for Nominations: 2019 Best Practices in Grassroots Healthcare Innovation – Seeking the 'Deep Divers'
Primary care constitutes the most fundamental and critical component of the overall healthcare system. Its industrial upgrading and transition follow the dynamics of oceanic movements: only those with comprehensive strengths can withstand the ebb and flow of tides and endure the increasing pressure and risks associated with deeper submersion; furthermore, only those truly skilled in “diving” have the opportunity to penetrate deeper levels and seize the vast market opportunities in the “deep-water zone.”
Driven by policy support and following years of industrial upgrading and transformation, the primary healthcare sector is poised to delve deeper, spanning from top-level design and intermediate infrastructure to patient-facing services. This evolution will foster innovative industry models represented by internet hospitals, family doctor services, private primary care institutions, grassroots testing and diagnostics, and new pharmaceutical marketing strategies.
“Deep Dive” will become the main theme of the comprehensive upgrade of primary healthcare in 2019.
These industrial models are dedicated to achieving resource sharing and improving the lagging development of primary healthcare. They constitute a vital component in building the core competitiveness of primary healthcare and are key to strengthening the primary healthcare service system.
The healthcare industry’s attention will once again focus on primary care. The new systemic reforms will inevitably lead to the deconstruction and reshaping of China’s primary healthcare sector, which is poised to become the key patient access point for future healthcare services.
VCBeat explores the development trends of primary healthcare from the perspectives of industrial policy, technological evolution, business models, and industry collaboration; shares outstanding case studies of primary healthcare practices; and selects innovative medical enterprises that truly represent and are deeply rooted in primary care.
