From 2000 to 2013, general improvement in the equality of maternal and child health was found in China. Within the overall performance, greater differences were found between urban and rural areas than between genders. However, there is still a need for improvement.

Additionally, improved health equality must be consolidated and the urban-rural gap in MMR and U5MR must be narrowed by focusing on differences in the causes of death between urban and rural areas.
