Abstract

The decision of rural residents in China to withdraw from the medical insurance system is influenced not only by economic factors but also by the system's design and various aspects of rural governance. Moving forward, the Chinese government should optimize the medical insurance system's design, implement more flexible mobilization and persuasion strategies, and prioritize the identification and regulation of misleading information.
