Abstract

This article describes how health care has been and is currently financed, organized, and delivered in China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan. Each system's performance is assessed on the equity and efficiency axes in terms of how well it deals with important market failures. We conclude by drawing comparative lessons and showing how policymakers are trying or might attempt to rise up to and overcome key challenges.
