There has been a rapid growth in the number of Taiwanese business people in China, however, how these Taiwanese business people can gain the appropriate health service they may require in China has surfaced as a people''s livelihood problem. This research inquires into the health service utilization situation and related influencing factors of Taiwanese business people in China. This research, configured with the Andersen model , adopting the construction type questionnaire for sampling, investigating with paper questionnaire and an electronic questionnaire. A total of 1,300 paper questionnaires were distributed of which 500 were returned, resulting in a 66% return rate. A total of 1,205 electronic questionnaires were completed, resulting in total return rate for the sample of 1,705. The following research results were noted: (A) The cure choice situation: Of the Taiwanese business people who become sick in China, of the ones who choose to return to Taiwan for service, 67% choose Taiwan because of high quality health service equipment and the good health service technique.Of the Taiwanese business people who choose to be cured in China, 81% choose this because, with easy transportation, services are nearby. (B) Health services utilization situation: (1)Whether Taiwanese business people return to Taiwan to seek medical advice or not:Females, married people, people with a higher level of education, people with longer employment service, tend to return. Those whose work period has been short or who have more bad health conditions, are more likely to return to seek medical advice. (2)Whether Taiwanese business people seek health service in the China or not:Those who are in Xiamen, who continue to pay the national health insurance fee, and who have a higher average monthly income, tend to seek health service in the China less frequently .Those Taiwanese business people who live in China for an long time and who take the special medications, more often tend to seek health service in China. (3) When the place of health service choice is China:Taiwanese business people tend to choose health service in a public hospital in China more often if they are married, if they seldom return to Taiwan, and if they take medication. If the level of their education is higher, if they have a high monthly income, the Taiwanese business people tend less often to seek health service in Chinese clinics. This research provides suggestions for policy development of health service utilization and for a health management system establishment for Taiwanese business people, including health service utilization, out-patient services, and hospitalization services, etc. The data, which is used to understand the use of health service by Taiwanese business people, will help to develop improved health service for them.
