A Mean-Field Analysis for the Two-Tiered Healthcare Network Through Nonlinear Markov Processes,-tiered healthcare systems in many cities of China. Note that the two-tiered healthcare network can express the health service delivery between different levels of hospitals under necessary cooperation. This paper proposes a mean-field theory for performance analysis of the complex two-tiered health
