Local competition not only dominates the public HCS sector, serving the vast majority of Chinese patients and accepting GIS and LIS insurance unavailable to foreign companies, but it also extends into the privately provided HCS sector. (references)

While similar vertical health delivery systems exist- and overlap- in urban areas, the hospital dominates in the provision of HCS. In the cities, GIS and LIS health coverage have played an important role. Under the old medical insurance system, 70 million workers at state and collectively owned enterprises and 30 million government and state-owned institutions employees enjoyed virtually free medical care. This will change under the new urban medical insurance system that will be gradually introduced this year. The new system will cover all of the country's nearly 200 million urban employees in state-owned, collective, foreign-funded and privately operated enterprises (excluding township enterprises), as well as employees in civic organizations and other institutions.
