But “one of the main reasons why China continues to choose public healthcare provisions over private is because private healthcare is expensive. It's also worth noting that most of the country's well respected and highly trained doctors prefer to work in public hospitals, as they offer greater benefits in terms of job security, research opportunities, and prestigious recognition. (…) It's thought that around 97% of China's population is covered by public health insurance schemes.”
