Besides the achievements, there are still some shortcomings and limitations, such as the increasing cost of medical examination and treatment that needs to be controlled, and difficulties in organizing and implementing health insurance contracts... These shortcomings and difficulties pose issues that require the two sectors to continue strengthening coordination in leadership, direction, and resolution.
