Prior to May 2018, China had no nationwide emergency management agency or a nationwide IMS method in place. Until the formation of the new Chinese emergency management agency in 2018, the process of managing emergencies, planning for emergencies, and managing response and recovery efforts were handled by a hodgepodge of national, regional, and local governmental agencies. These agencies usually responded with no specific or defined way of handling incidents, and they usually did not integrate well when they were forced to work together. In a 2018 press release, it was stated that the new formation of the emergency management agency would improve the speed and efficiency of the Chinese response to disasters (Liqiang, 2018). No information was found on the use of a hospital IMS method in China, so it is assumed that there is none in place.
