The governance of Chinese health insurance relating to the total population coverage is effective.”

According to the news editors, the research concluded: “To effectively improve the effectiveness of the governance relating to the total population coverage of health insurance, health insurance information construction, governance capacity, and governance tools should be the focus of governance to further improve the accurate expansion of and increase the coverage of health insurance.”
