However, since 2016, the government has offered preferential policies in pediatric area, after which the consumption attributes of pediatric medical services have become increasingly prominent. The three-child policy and the promotion of refined childcare will lead to continuous strong demand of pediatric medical care, which is an inevitable path for the continuous adjustment of the demographic structure and the growing demand of the people.
