Uncompensated care for children without insurance or from low-income families in a Chinese children’s hospital

摘要

BackgroundIn China, children from low-income families, particularly those of rural to urban migrant families, have become one of the most vulnerable populations in terms of healthcare access. Without support, these families will finally give up treatment for their children. Our hospital has sought several ways to fund the uncompensated care for children without insurance or from low-income families.
