In recent years, Tibet will improve the capacity of Tibetan medicine services and promote the inheritance and innovation of Tibetan medicine. Special funds will be invested in improving medical conditions of township health centers and Tibetan medical institutions, as well as enhancing the basic knowledge and clinical skills of grassroots Tibetan medical technicians. By 2020, county-level traditional Tibetan medicine hospitals are expected to be fully covered in every county in Tibet. 80% township health centers and 100% community healthcare centers will all have Tibetan medicine departments.
