There are clear differences in the choice of healthcare provider among the richest, poorest and middle quintiles of the population. The richest quintile tends to favour provincial and city-level health facilities, which offer the most comprehensive care. In China, community-level clinics tend to offer cheaper and lower-quality healthcare. As such, the poorest quintile is more likely than the middle or upper quintiles to use healthcare providers at the local level.
