China’s National Health Commission and CHINA STATE PLANNER issued an implementation plan to expand medical rehabilitation and nursing capacity, prioritizing R&D and application of frontier technologies in neurorehabilitation, motor rehabilitation and wound repair. They encourage industry leaders, universities, research institutes and hospitals to form industry‑university‑research‑use consortia to speed commercialization and back R&D on brain–computer interfaces (BCIs), embodied intelligence, bionic drive, smart rehab devices, implantable/interventional devices and new biomaterials. The plan calls for development of TCM‑integrated intelligent rehab nursing products and for qualifying innovative rehab devices and drugs to be entered into priority review/approval channels according to procedure. Top hospitals are urged to pilot and document BCI and related product use and to scale innovations across hospitals, community and home care settings.
