Although much remains to be done to improve pediatric critical care medicine, there is no denying that in terms of accessibility, Taiwan's primary care system is very good indeed. Few other countries can match Taiwan's primary care services. Within the framework of the National Health Insurance (NHI) system, there are currently 18,877 clinics, including 2-3,000 small and medium-sized clinics specializing in pediatric and family services.
雖然兒童重症治療仍有待努力，但不可諱言，台灣基層醫療的「就醫可近性」極佳，是其他國家少有的特色，目前全國健保體系內有 18,877 家診所，其中小兒及家醫專科特約院所約二、三千家。
