How many health insurance companies are there in China?

There are three companies, including China Life Insurance, China Ping An, China Pacific, Second Corps, Xinhua Life Insurance, Taikang Life Insurance and Minsheng Life Insurance. There are many foreign-funded and joint-venture insurance companies with relatively small market share, and there are more than 30 newly-established companies, such as AIA, Haikang, Xincheng, Sino-British, Sino-American Metropolis, Zhong Yi, Hong Zhong, Jinsheng, Taiping, Life Insurance and PICC Life Insurance.

There are also Guohua Life Insurance and Xintai Life Insurance in preparation. That's all I know. I'm not sure which is better, but I'll know soon!
