Research On The Development Of American Health Industry

With the economic and social progress,significant changes have been taken place in the way of people's living and their life idea,a series of issues like the improvement of life quality,the realization of a high-standard and healthy living have raised up to a prevalent topic of all humanity as a result of the increasing awareness of health care.Under this social background,health industry has been highly valued in global for its remarkable market potential as well as its business format on the production and service aspects,which are closely connected with human being's health.For instance,health industry has been a pillar in economic boost and brought prominent economic and social benefits in some developed countries.The development of health industry plays an important role in the protection of citizens' health equity,economic growth,economic structure optimization and comprehensive nation strength and international competitiveness enhancement.The united States,the European Union,Japan and other countries have launched relevant policies to incorporate health industry into the national strategic industry for future and invested substantial resources in the development of health technology.As for our country,a great progress has been made in health industry with more than 30 years development,especially for the rapid growth in the health industry,which is mainly based on medical service,has widely popularized the health ideas and recognized by public,generally improved the awareness of health and increased the number and quality of various of health lectures and training sessions,simultaneously,the government continuously ameliorates the laws and regulations in order to offer a well-supporting policy environment for a high-quality health industry growth.To some extent,although a certain progress has been made in the research of health industry in our country,compared with developed countries,China's health industry is still in the early stage of development,the attention of citizens paid on health behavior and healthy lifestyle is less enough,the recognition of preventive health care has not been widely popularized.As one of the most developed countries which is advanced in health industry,the development of health industry in the United States has been quite mature,to analyze the United State's health industry operation mode and its character in depth and take its development experience as a reference would give an important theoretical guidance and practical significance on improving China's health industry progress.The research object taken in the following study will base on the United State's health industry,supported by health economics and relevant theories with utilizing historical and logical analysis as our main research method.By taking a systematically review on both national and international literature,along with the relevant theories and concepts,a brief review of the development of the health industry in the United State will be introduced.By taking the analysis of the operation system and mode of its health industry in depth,this study will probe into the factor that takes effects in its rapid growing of health industry and analyze the development-induced influence in a comprehensive aspect.Followed by a rational evaluation that bases on the problems and tendency in the health industry and a countermeasure that proposed for the development of China's health industry in the future.The full text is divided into four parts,8 chapters.Part one,this part forms the basis and foundation of the whole paper,which mainly elicits the topic background and the significance of the research,by a comprehensive documentation and analysis of national and international relevant reviews,the research method and ideas will be summarized,and finally,the possible innovation points and deficiencies in the research will be proposed.On this basis,defines the relevant concepts and connotation of the health industry,expounds the basic characteristics of the health industry development,briefly introduces the status of health industry development in developed countries like Japan,the United States,Canada,as well as in some developing countries like Thailand,India and other countries.Meanwhile,the theoretical basis will be stated through the research,which is on the basis of life cycle theory,health economics theory and government regulation theory.Part two,this part will elaborate the United State's health industry by focusing on the phases of germination,formation,stabilization and explosion.From the aspects of wide industrial coverage,strong government support and technology innovation,it analyzes the characteristics of the United State's health industry.On this basis,systematically analyzes the main business forms of American health industry,including: the industry system and operation mode of the health management industry,the medical service industry,the health insurance industry and the dietary supplement industry.Part three,this part will give an in-depth analysis upon the influence factors that may affect that rapid growth of health industry in America from four visions: institutional factors,economic factors,market factors and technological factors,which are under the PEST mode.Then,comprehensively analyze the influence that caused by American health industry development and rationally evaluate the obstacles and tendencies in the future.Part four,this part reviews the current situation of the health industry development in China,which also claims the dilemma that may face in the development progress,and countermeasures of future health industry development will be proposed.At last,finalizes and summarizes the main viewpoints and research results.
