Analysis on the Imbalanced Distribution of Medical Resources in China

Abstract

Health is the premise of peoples happy life and the cornerstone of national economic development. In order to improve peoples physical fitness comprehensively, the allocation of medical resources is very important. This paper aims to analyze the current situation of the allocation of medical resources in China, and to provide suggestions for solving the problem of unbalanced allocation of medical resources in China. The analysis shows that the distribution of key medical resources is imbalanced in China. Medical resources such as number of beds per person and instruments with total value above 10,000 yuan are vital indicators. The distirbution of medical resouses shows a pattern of more in Eastern China and less in Western China, and the distinction between the North and the South is greater than the that between the East and the West. In order to optimize the current situation of resource allocation in China, the way of combining Internet and medical treatment is proposed, so that medical resources are not limited by space. Online consultation services are beneficial for the diagnosis and treatment of common illnesses in areas with limited healthcare resources. It reduces the difficulty for patients to seek medical care and improve healthcare efficiency. For complex and difficult cases, early detection through online consultation can facilitate timely intervention.
