+abstract: 'Objectives - Purchasing has been promoted as a key policy instrument to
+
+  improve health system performance. Despite its widespread adoption,
+
+  there is little empirical evidence on how it works, the challenges
+
+  surrounding its implementation, its impact, and the preconditions for it
+
+  to function effectively, particularly in low- and middle-income
+
+  settings. The objective of this chapter is to analyze critically the
+
+  extent to which purchasing could be, and has been used strategically in
+
+  China and to identify modifications that are needed for purchasing to be
+
+  effective in assuring that the government''s new funding for health care
+
+  will result in efficient and effective health services.
+
+  Methods - We present a conceptual framework for purchasing, which
+
+  identifies three critical principal-agent relationships in purchasing.
+
+  We draw on evidence from secondary data, results of other research
+
+  studies, interviews, and the impact evaluation of a social experiment in
+
+  rural China that explicitly used purchasing to improve quality and
+
+  efficiency. This information is used to examine purchasing relationships
+
+  in urban social health insurance (SHI), the rural medical insurance
+
+  scheme, and purchasing of public health services.
+
+  Findings - To date, use of strategic purchasing is limited in China.
+
+  Both the urban and the rural health insurance schemes act as passive
+
+  third-party payers, failing to take advantage of the opportunities to
+
+  strengthen incentives to improve quality and efficiency. This may be
+
+  because as government agencies, the extent to which the Ministries of
+
+  Health and Labor and Social Security can act independently from provider
+
+  interests, or act in the best interest of the population, is unclear.
+
+  Other important challenges include ensuring adequate representation of
+
+  the population''s views and preferences and making better use of the
+
+  leverage provided by purchasing to create appropriate provider
+
+  incentives, through better integration of financing and improved
+
+  coordination among purchasers.
+
+  Implications for policy - In designing purchasing arrangements,
+
+  attention needs to be paid to all three principal agent relationships.
+
+  Successful purchasing appears to require mechanisms to mobilize and
+
+  represent community preferences and more strategic contracting with
+
+  providers. More research is needed to strengthen the evidence on which
+
+  purchasing arrangements work, which no not work, and under what
+
+  conditions different purchasing configurations can work most
+
+  effectively.'
