Aiming at the shortcomings in the theory and practice of integrated elderly care and medical services in China, using the methods of literature analysis and comparative analysis, we summarize four typical models of integrated elderly care and medical services, namely, the American commercial pension model, the British national tax financing system pension model, the Japanese national security transformation, and the German long-term care insurance system, and compare the four models systematically from the aspects of system overview, service principle, operation mode, financing supervision, etc. The enlightenment for the policy and practice development of integrated elderly care and medical services in China is obtained: firstly, the service concept should be innovated; secondly, it is important to improve the relevant legal protection and supporting measures; thirdly, the refinement of the integrated elderly care and medical service projects are supposed to be promoted; fourthly, a multi-party linkage mechanism ought to be establishd; and fifthly, community endowment model should be advocated.
