The prevalence of autism spectrum disorder(ASD) has increased significantly in recent years. The early onset and long duration of the disease require long-term and intensive rehabilitation, which imposes a great burden of disease on the affected children and their families, and also increases the social cost.The diagnosis and treatment, rehabilitation, schooling, employment as well as social reintegration have become a hot issue of concern to the whole society at present and in the future. The government's policy safeguard is crucial to support the health transition and the well-being ofASD children. In the past decade, the Chinese government has paid more and more attention to this group and developed a series of policies to provide good health services and financial support for ASD children and their families. This paper is to review the national policies related to the ASD group in recent years, describe the policy characteristics, and conduct a policy content analysis based on the World Health Organization's theoretical framework to identify the key areas and potential gaps in China's ASD-related policies so as to provide some thoughts and suggestions for the benefits of stakeholders.
