The State Council released the Implementation Plan for the Healthcare Foundation Strengthening Project, setting a 2027 goal to re‑layout primary healthcare institutions so that every resident can reach a medical service point within 15 minutes. The plan charts a 2030 vision of a fully digitised, equity‑focused primary‑care system that balances traditional Chinese and Western medicine and solidifies a tiered diagnosis‑and‑treatment framework.

County‑Level Medical Consortia: The Heart of the Plan

Digitalisation Focus: Interoperable electronic medical records (EMR) and health records (EHR) across primary, secondary, and tertiary institutions.
Functional Gains: Electronic prescription circulation, cross‑regional test result sharing, vaccination data exchange, and continuous medication record management.
Milestones: Near‑universal coverage of county‑level consortia by 2027, with further cohesion by 2030.
