Objective  To systematically review the current situation, dilemmas and countermeasures of the regulation of health care integration services in China, and provide reference for the research on the regulation of health care integration services in China. Methods  Studies and policies on the regulation of health care integration services were systematically searched from the inception of the databases to October 2022, and the included studies and policies were coded and analyzed by using the qualitative analysis software NVivo12. Results  A total of 12 research articles and 15 policy announcements were included. The theoretical framework, regulatory dilemmas and regulatory countermeasures for the regulation of health care integration services were obtained through open coding, axial coding and selective coding. The regulatory framework of health care integration services was divided into five aspects: regulatory basis, regulatory subject, regulatory object, regulatory content and regulatory methods. The lack of regulatory basis led to dilemmas in the remaining aspects accordingly. Conclusion  The regulation of health care integration services needs to start from the regulatory basis, introduce and improve the health care integration laws and policies, and gradually form a health care integration service regulatory model with institutional self-regulation as the priority, government regulation as the main body, and the public, third parties and other social regulation as the auxiliary.
