Everyone pays into the public healthcare fund through taxes for basic services. Deductibles and co payments apply. To fill in the gaps there are also private insurance options.

Do you think that China ever just kills people that it can't save or doesn't report certain deaths?

Does China do a good job of pretending as if they actually love their people?
