The circular urges increasing the supply of TCM personnel and providing additional assistance with personnel management and setup of primary-level TCM clinics.

The circular also describes plans to construct and strengthen a mechanism through which county-level TCM practitioners provide on-site services at primary-level TCM clinics regularly.

More advantageous conditions should be created for the promotion of TCM personnel who have served at the primary level for a long time, according to the circular. ■
