China has just opened its urban hospitals and healthcare system to foreign investment. Many see opportunities in this plan for wider medical reform, but challenges still remain. More and more of China’s wealthy are willing to pay more money for a better hospital experience, including private rooms, better facilities and more attention from their doctors. Development in the urban and private sector hospitals is expected to grow.
