Residents to get 24-hour service from pilot clinics

A pilot program to provide 24-hour medical services through some of the city's residential clinics will start on July 1.

Beijing's medical reform plan, released on Saturday, said several residential clinics in eight of Beijing's urban districts will take part in the program. The city has 16 urban districts.

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) will also be made available at some of these clinics.
