Chinese Vice Premier Li Keqiang has called for orderly implementation of the country's health care reform. Li* also head of the State Council's leading group on health care system reform* made the remarks at a symposium in Jiangxi's capital city Nanchang on Saturday. Li underscored major projects to be carried out to push forward the reform by the year-end: -- The expansion of basic medical insurance coverage to 72 million more urban workers and unemployed residents* and ensuring at least 90 percent of the rural population to be covered. -- Assistance for the vaccination of 23 million people below the age of 15 against hepatitis B and providing free folic acid supplements for 11.8 million rural women who intend to get pregnant or are in the early stages of pregnancy to prevent birth defects. -- Improving primary health care facilities* including county and township-level hospitals* village clinics* and community health centers. -- Ensuring about 30 percent of government-owned community health institutes and county-level hospitals use medicines on an essential drug list and sell them at controlled low prices. -- A pilot reform in about 100 state-run hospitals by the year-end to draw experience from trial projects to push forward the reform across the country. China's three-year plan for health care reform* involving an investment of 850 billion yuan (124 billion U.S. dollars)* was unveiled in April. It aims to lay a solid foundation for equitable and universal access to essential health care for everyone in the country by 2020. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*replica watches*rolex watches*breitling watches*tag heuer*omega watches*cartier watches.
