Policy synthesis through regional experimentations: comparative study of the new cooperative medical scheme in three Chinese provinces/ Xufeng Zhu

By: Material type: TextTextPublication details: 2020Subject(s): Online resources: In: Journal of Comparative Policy analysis : Vol.22, No 4, August 2020, pp.320-343Summary: This research explores policy synthesis via regional experimentations as a novel policy experimentation model. In policy synthesis, the upper government determines instruments for each element of a national policy by communicating with and learning from the experiences of local governments and then synthesizes the policy elements by conducting large-scale experiments. This study analyzes the experimentation of the Chinese New Cooperative Medical Scheme as a case to demonstrate the feasibility of applying policy synthesis. It also compares the experimentations conducted in three provinces and reviews the strategy adopted by the central government.
