国民政府时期的公医制度

Research on the Institution of the Public Health Services during the Period of the Government of KMT

国民政府时期的公医制度,是国民政府在引进国外医疗保障制度经验的基础上建立的一种医疗保障制度。其目标在于降低人口的死亡率,抑制传染病流行,降低产妇及婴儿死亡率,增进国民健康。它的产生和发展深受当时社会经济条件、政治背景等多种因素的制约,未能发挥应有的功效,并不是完全意义上的公医制度。但它体现了政府对国民身体健康的重视,推动了中国医疗保健事业的近代化。

The institution of the public health services in the later period of People' s Republic of China was based on the experience of the western medical insurance business and the condition of the social situation at the time. It was to decrease the people's death, to control the infectious disease, to decrease the death of the lying-in woman and the newborn baby and also to increase the people's health. The economic and the social elements made it less perfect. We can say that it was not a real public health service system. But it embodied that the government attached big importance to the people's health, which accelerated the modernization place.
