This article explores the high-quality development path of national regional medical centers in West China Hospital of Sichuan University, a large comprehensive hospital in Southwest China. It clearly states that the implementation path for the output hospital to carry out the national regional medical center construction project includes scientifically conducting demand research, comprehensively clarifying functional positioning, uniformly setting up organizational structures, establishing an expert dispatch mechanism, homogenously training self-recruited personnel, and fully participating in infrastructure construction. It also proposes to take the establishment of a management system and mechanism adapted to local conditions as the core, build a flexible and organic management model, set up a targeted “group-based” operation mechanism, and innovatively establish a comprehensive assessment and evaluation system to support the construction of a hierarchical medical system.
