At Shandong Medical University, Yin received his undergraduate education in medicine from 1980 to 1986 and graduate studies in social medicine and health management from 1986 to 1988. After that, he traveled to the Soviet Union in 1988 and received a doctorate in health economics and health care management from the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences.[4]

Yin returned to China in 1993 and started his career as a cadre of the Department of Education, Science, Culture and Health at the Research Office of the State Council. Later at the research office, he served as the head of its international department and as an inspection officer.[4]

From 2002 to 2003, Yin served as a visiting scholar at the Harvard School of Public Health.
