Abstract: After long-term efforts,especially in the fight against poverty in recent years,the problem of poverty caused by illness and returning to poverty due to illness has basically been solved in China. In the journey of advancing common prosperity,health poverty alleviation will continue for a long time. Therefore,based on anti-poverty and promoting peoples all-round development,it is necessary to realize three changes in policies of health poverty alleviation:from “treatment-centered” to “health-centered”,from “medical assistance” to “disease prevention”,from “the least beneficiary” to “the second least beneficiary”. Accordingly,the focus of optimizing the policies of health poverty alleviation at this stage is as follows:first,the basic medical security system gradually implements a capping system for personal medical expenses;second,strengthen the supply of primary health care services;third,enhance the awareness and ability of personal health management;fourth,pay attention to the mental health of the poor;fifth,build a healthy environment.

Key words: health poverty alleviation, common prosperity, health poverty
