The essence of the traditional Chinese medicine has always been the most advanced and experienced therapeutic approach in the world. It has knowledge that can impact the direction of future modern medical development; still, it is easy to find simple knowledge with mark of times and special cultures. The basic structure of traditional Chinese medicine is composed of three parts: one consistent with modern medicine, one involuntarily beyond modern medicine, and one that needs to be further evaluated. The part that is consistent with modern medicine includes consensus on several theories and concepts of traditional Chinese medicine, and usage of several treatments and prescriptions of traditional Chinese medicine including commonly used Chinese herbs. The part that is involuntarily beyond modern medicine contains several advanced theories and important concepts of traditional Chinese medicine, relatively advanced treatments, formula and modern prescriptions, leading herbs, acupuncture treatment and acupuncture anesthesia of traditional Chinese medicine that affect modern medicine and incorporates massage treatment that has been gradually acknowledged by modern therapy. The part that needs to be further evaluated consists not only the knowledge of pulse diagnosis, prescription, and herbs, but also many other aspects of traditional Chinese medicine.

China is a country with an aging population, and the social risks brought by the incapacitated elderly and demented elderly are constantly increasing. It is difficult for families to bear the financial burden of long-term care for the incapacitated elderly and demented elderly independently, so they must rely on external forces to provide financial support for long-term care. The advantages of Traditional Chinese Medicine in the treatment and rehabilitation of senile diseases are increasingly prominent, but there is still a lack of integration between Traditional Chinese Medicine services and long-term care of the elderly, which should guide social subjects to enter the field of long-term care of the elderly in Traditional Chinese Medicine. This paper analyzes the feasibility of “3+1” model in which multiple subjects, such as family, government, market, charity and public welfare organizations, share the financial burden of long-term care for the incapacitated elderly and demented elderly, and studies the construction of an effective financial supply integration mechanism.
