Since 2010, the Chinese government began to prioritize mental health infrastructure development due to a high burden of mental disorders and gap in available services. For example, since 2009, the central government has directly invested 10.59 billion yuan (USD 1.57 billion), and the civil affairs department invested 2.8 billion yuan(USD 0.41 billion) aiming to build new or expand existing hospitals to achieve full coverage of mental health services in each prefecture-level city. Also, only a small number of economically welldeveloped areas in China have social workers serving mental health patients. China has made progress mostly in the medical care of severe mental disorders in hospitals.	./cache/cord-333701-zefd3yw5.txt	./txt/cord-333701-zefd3yw5.txt
