| Additional information: This case study is of great value beyond the specific Chinese context. It clearly emphasises the need for more internal policy coherence to achieve self-proclaimed targets. In its current
work programme on “Work and Well-Being” the Development Centre looks precisely at identifying the institutional and regulatory frameworks that promote synergies between the employment and social protection agendas. More coherent and better integrated policies can better contribute to the fight against poverty and social exclusion. |

Improving access to affordable health care is one of the main challenges facing policy makers in developing countries, and China is no exception. The Chinese government has introduced various institutional innovations - most recently the “new rural type co-operative medical care” - while reforming the administration and governance of social programmes and investment. This case study clearly emphasises the need for more internal policy coherence to achieve self-proclaimed targets.
