Analysis on the Differences in Medical Service Levels of Primary Care Doctors in Different Regions of China and the Paths for Improvement

Under the Healthy China strategy, enhancing primary medical services is critical for national health. This study evaluates regional disparities in the service levels of primary care doctors and proposes improvement strategies. A multi-dimensional evaluation system was constructed, integrating quantitative assessments (e.g., diagnosis capability, patient satisfaction) and qualitative analysis (e.g., service behaviors, challenges). Statistical methods, including χ² tests, revealed significant regional differences: Central regions outperformed eastern and western regions in diagnosing common diseases (χ²=128.722, *P*<0.001), while eastern regions had higher physician quality in hospitals and primary institutions. Job satisfaction varied by institution type, with first-class second-grade hospitals and community health centers scoring higher. Resource allocation was skewed toward eastern regions, exacerbating urban-rural gaps. Key strategies include optimizing resource distribution, advancing medical informatization, and strengthening talent training. Post-intervention comparisons demonstrated notable improvements in service levels. The findings underscore the need for region-specific policies to balance resource allocation, enhance infrastructure, and prioritize workforce development, ensuring equitable, high-quality primary care nationwide.
