Shanghainese will be able to experience a new medicare mode at the first pre-diagnosis clinic in China, which will start operation by the end of October.

The pre-diagnosis clinic is meant to help those who suffer from subhealthy conditions to find the problems with their bodies, thus to prevent possible health crises.

At present, it is estimated that 70 percent of Shanghainese are subhealthy, including many senior managers and intellectuals.

It will be much easier and economical to cure subhealth than saving the lives from fatal diseases, any way.
