In terms of grassroots services, the plan emphasizes filling gaps and weaknesses. Through the downward transfer of talent, telemedicine, and digitalintelligent applications, it aims to strengthen TCM service capabilities in counties, townships, and villages, making it more convenient for the public to access TCM services close to home. At the same time, the plan also proposes strengthening the synergy between traditional Chinese and Western medicine and building science and technology platforms, so that more research achievements can be transformed into new drugs and new technologies that are clinically usable.
