Analysis of the dilemma of public health committee construction and optimization path

Abstract

Establishing public health committees within the village (neighborhood) committees is an explicit provision of the Constitution of the People’s Republic of China and an inevitable requirement to promote the implementation of the Health China strategy and ensure people’s health. In practice, fragmentation, lagging and blurring of relevant legislation, differences in regional construction, barriers to information flow, omissions in emergency response mechanisms, scarcity of cross-disciplinary talents, and lack of personnel training in the rule of law are the primary legal regulation dilemmas in the construction and operation of public health committees. Given this, based on building a systematic, complete, and normative system, we should form a coordinated and highly efficient working mechanism and develop a comprehensive work team that equips with talents with both medical and legal knowledge.
