Abstract
Quality of Care in Family Planning: Gradual and Comprehensive Reform in China
Abstract:
Since the 1990s, many national population and family planning program have been under re-examination and reorientation in light of the Programme of Action adopted at the International Conference on Population and Development in 1994. This is the case in China. The present case study documents a program reform initiated by the State Family Planning Commission of China in 1995 to introduce the quality-of-care approach in a few counties and districts. The introduction of this approach, which focuses on the quality services and the client’s choices in family planning/reproductive health at community level, was to serve as a means of reorienting the program away from its previous demographically driven track as well as scaling it up nationwide thereafter.
