Major reasons include inadequate propaganda and training effort; narrow compensation scope influencing institutional functions; unreasonable reimbursement mechanism; low level of informatization management; imperfect supervision mechanism; and imperfect laws and regulations. In these situations, we put forward following countermeasures and suggestions: enhance training to ensure working efficiency; expand compensation scope to raise security level; adjust compensation standard to raise reimbursement proportion; lift level of informatization management to reduce costs for institutional operation; strengthen organizational construction to reinforce fund management; open up fund-raising channels to perfect legal system.展开更多
