Figure 3.27
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.
