Feedback sought on reform of healthcare

Public opinion is being sought on a new draft issued yesterday to reform the country's healthcare system.

It is another step toward a universal medical healthcare system, which China hopes to have in place by 2020.

The National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) published the 13,500-word draft on its website, shs.ndrc.gov.cn/yg, and welcomed opinions from the public on its content. The closing date is Nov 14.
