Providing Healthcare in China

Paper Summary:

The paper attempts to show the realities of healthcare growth opportunities for the partnership between Proactive Medicare Enterprise (HK) Limited and Johns Hopkins International. The paper pays attention to the ethical dilemma of operating a business that could easily become influenced by the One Child Policy and sex selection practices that China has become globally known for. The paper maintains that the future is far less rosy than what the members of the consortia of companies see. The paper contends that it is full of risks and the group of companies must focus on being in compliance with, yet also free of the potentially constricting nature of Chinese healthcare policies.

From the Paper:

"For Proactive Medicare Enterprise (HK) Limited, the opportunities at first glance appear unlimited and very promising as their initial success both from a partnership standpoint with Johns Hopkins International and from an execution of initial strategy in Shanghai. Taken at face value the case study implies the need for analysis of two emerging growth opportunities, both initially financially and strategically attractive, and little if any downside to the two expansion strategies. What is in fact missing is a more realistic assessment of healthcare throughout China which is one of the most impoverished and under-funded in the world."
