The plan gives priority to hospitals specializing in infectious diseases and overloaded clinics.
The Ministry of Health will set up a proper mechanism to encourage and create the most favorable conditions for the development of private hospitals, so that up to 2010, all provinces will have at least two private sick-beds per 10,000 people.
Provinces are required to design their own plans to meet people’s demand for medical treatment.
