党的十七大报告指出,要全面推进新型农村合作医疗制度建设,把人人享有基本医疗卫生服务作为小康社会的目标之一。这对现行的新型农村合作医疗制度提出了更高的要求。自2003年以来,我国新型农村合作医疗制度的筹资水平虽有大幅度提高,但总体水平仍偏低。由此带来了保障水平低下等一系列问题,影响了制度的运行质量和效果。因此,建立持久、稳定增长的筹资机制,是新型农村合作医疗可持续发展的必要条件。 The report of the 17th National Congress of the CPC pointed out: To comprehensively promote the construction of a new type of rural cooperative medical system and regard all people’s access to basic medical and health services as one of the goals of a well-to-do society. This puts forward higher requirements on the current new rural cooperative medical system. Since 2003, although the funding level of the new rural cooperative medical system in our country has risen substantially, the overall level is still low. This has led to a series of problems, such as the low level of protection, affecting the quality and effectiveness of the operation of the system. Therefore, establishing a long-term and stable funding mechanism for financing is a necessary condition for the sustainable development of the new rural cooperative medical system.
