It is part of the country\u2019s broader national planning under the 15th Five-Year Plan period from 2026 to 2030, linked with the Healthy China initiative and the aim of bringing core health indicators closer to those of high-income economies. The plan, issued by the State Council, places health at the center of development, social stability and long-term national strength.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The relevant health chapter of the 15th Five-Year Plan focuses on improving public medical services, expanding fair access to healthcare, strengthening disease prevention, improving emergency-response capacity and building a more integrated medical network. It also highlights life-cycle health services, meaning health protection from childhood to old age. This includes maternal health, childbirth support, infertility treatment, HPV vaccination for eligible girls, cancer screening, elderly care, disability prevention, occupational health and rehabilitation services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A major feature of China\u2019s health policy is prevention. Instead of waiting for people to become seriously ill, the plan focuses on early diagnosis, vaccination, health education, smoke-free environments and primary-level treatment. China aims to reduce the smoking rate among people aged 15 and above to 20 percent, strengthen breast and cervical cancer screening, expand community-based eldercare and improve support for people with disabilities and low-income groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another key feature is fairness. China wants better healthcare access across provinces, cities and rural areas. The plan calls for stronger major hospitals, but also better primary healthcare institutions adapted to local needs. This matters because life expectancy does not improve only through advanced hospitals. It improves when ordinary citizens can access basic care, vaccination, blood-pressure checks, maternal services, medicine and emergency treatment before diseases become fatal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">China also sees technology as a new driver of health development. The plan calls for a national smart healthcare platform, cross-provincial sharing of medical records, mutual recognition of diagnostic results and stronger use of artificial intelligence in medicine and pharmaceuticals. It also supports innovative drugs, medical devices and international health cooperation, including Belt and Road health partnerships and the global development of traditional Chinese medicine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">China\u2019s life expectancy has improved because health has been treated as a national development priority for decades. Better nutrition, poverty reduction, wider health insurance, stronger public hospitals, infectious-disease control, maternal and child health services, vaccination, sanitation, urban planning and rising living standards all contributed. By 2025, China\u2019s average life expectancy had reached 79.25 years, and the 2030 target of 80 years reflects a move from basic survival improvement toward healthier and longer life. Xinhua reported that China\u2019s new plan specifically targets 80 years by 2030 under the 15th Five-Year Plan health framework.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pakistan can learn from this experience, but it must adapt the model to its own realities. Pakistan\u2019s life expectancy remains much lower, with World Bank data showing around 68 years in 2024. The country also faces a double burden: infectious diseases, maternal and child health challenges, malnutrition and weak sanitation still exist, while non-communicable diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, heart disease and cancer are rising quickly. WHO-linked research has identified hypertension and diabetes as major health burdens in Pakistan, with lifestyle and diet changes contributing to the crisis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pakistan does not need an expensive, hospital-only model. It needs a prevention-first, low-cost, community-based health strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The first recommendation is to strengthen basic health units and family health services. Every union council should have regular screening for blood pressure, diabetes, maternal health, child growth and vaccination. Lady health workers can be trained further to support early detection of hypertension, diabetes and malnutrition. This is affordable and can prevent expensive hospital admissions later.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Second, Pakistan must confront food habits realistically. The issue is not to reject local cuisine, but to make it healthier. Excessive ghee, oil, sugar, salt, sugary tea, soft drinks, fried snacks and large portions are major risks. A national \u201cHealthy Plate Pakistan\u201d campaign should promote roti with more vegetables and lentils, smaller rice portions, less oil in cooking, fruit instead of sugary snacks, and reduced salt in everyday meals. Mosques, schools, TV channels and social media influencers can spread this message in simple language.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Third, Pakistan should launch a national anti-smoking and anti-vaping campaign. Tobacco taxation, smoke-free public places and cessation support can save lives at low cost. China\u2019s plan to reduce smoking offers a useful example: lifestyle policy must be treated as serious health policy, not personal advice only.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fourth, women\u2019s health must be a priority. Pakistan should expand cervical cancer awareness, HPV vaccination, where financially possible, breast cancer screening, maternal care and nutrition support for pregnant women. Many preventable deaths can be reduced through early diagnosis and basic care. China\u2019s focus on HPV vaccination and women\u2019s cancer screening provides a useful direction.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fifth, Pakistan should practically use digital health. A simple national digital health card, linked with basic records for vaccination, diabetes, blood pressure, pregnancy and medicines, could improve continuity of care. Pakistan does not need a perfect high-cost system immediately. It can begin with mobile-based records in public clinics and gradually connect hospitals.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sixth, Pakistan should cooperate more deeply with China. This can include training Pakistani doctors and nurses in public health management, telemedicine partnerships, low-cost medical equipment, vaccine cooperation, traditional medicine research, hospital management, AI-based diagnosis pilots and support for rural health centers under CPEC\u2019s social-development dimension.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Finally, Pakistan should set a realistic national target: raise life expectancy by at least five years over the next decade. This is possible if the country reduces maternal and child deaths, controls diabetes and hypertension, improves road safety, cuts smoking, expands vaccination, improves sanitation and strengthens primary healthcare.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">China\u2019s experience shows that life expectancy improves when health is planned, funded and measured. Pakistan has limited resources, but it has young people, community networks, doctors, nurses, lady health workers, digital talent, and strong family structures. With smart priorities and steady implementation, Pakistan can build a healthier future. The lesson from China is clear: a healthier population is not created by hospitals alone, but by prevention, planning, technology, fairness and political commitment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Reference Link:-&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/minutemirror.com.pk\/chinas-new-health-plan-and-a-practical-roadmap-for-pakistan-591555\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/minutemirror.com.pk\/chinas-new-health-plan-and-a-practical-roadmap-for-pakistan-591555\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>China\u2019s New Health Plan and a Practical Roadmap for Pakistan. \u4e2d\u56fd\u7684\u65b0\u578b\u5065\u5eb7\u8ba1\u5212\u4e0e\u5df4\u57fa\u65af\u5766\u7684\u5207\u5b9e\u8def\u7ebf\u56fe.
