Healthcare reform aids the poor

In the city of Zhongwei, China, the local government has provided medical assistance to citizens. They are able to help with medical care costs, by reimbursing a portion of the costs that people would have had to pay (and many would not have been able to afford). They have a simple application process that allows for patients' out-of-pocket fees to be subsidized, allowing more lower income people to receive the care they need, without having to stress about the price as much. This policy will hopefully encourage more people from lower socio-economic backgrounds to receive the care they need.
