Chapter 684: Treatment of Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine
The first day of the treatment of the combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine, in full swing, under the deliberate operation of the heart, Chinese medicine undertook most of the incurable diseases, of course, the cure rate of simple diseases is still very high, but some diseases need time and recuperation, which can only be slowly adjusted, however, this also gives Western doctors a good excuse to criticize these foreign Chinese medicine.
The busy day ended, and in the evening, the official re-organized formal reception dinner, all the doctors from both sides were present, but the dinner did not interfere with each other and did not speak, until the official representative finished speaking, and when the dinner officially began, Dean Mary and the accompanying Western doctors came over.
"Judging from today's preliminary results, you are not omnipotent."
"It's just that many patients still can't be treated."
As soon as they came, they began to find faults, which made the TCM representatives very dissatisfied, and one of them retorted: "That's because Hong Kong's Chinese medicine is incomplete, and if the herbs are complete, our efficacy must be better than yours." ”
"Hey, don't make excuses, we're not holding us accountable, according to the cure rate, is our Western medicine effective?" Dean Mary laughed and teased, "Is it that hard to admit that you are incompetent?" ”
"You ......" the Chinese medicine doctor was about to retort, but Lotte suddenly said:
"If a thief steals 1,000 dollars and gives 200 of them to a beggar, the beggar will say that the thief is a good person, but if a doctor treats 1,000 patients and one of them is not cured, then he is a quack, right?"
Lotte's questioning made Dean Mary speechless, laughed awkwardly twice and took people away, Chu Jiangnan complained on the side:
"I really don't understand, why do you insist on coming to Hong Kong, isn't it just looking for trouble."
Lotte smiled bitterly and said indifferently:
"To promote the revitalization and development of traditional Chinese medicine, where to focus on it, Professor Chu, have you ever thought about it?"
When it came to the essence of the problem, the Chinese medicine doctors in the audience were silent, and Director Liao Fan answered:
"Traditional Chinese medicine is our quintessence, previously at the 22nd meeting of the Standing Committee of the 12th National People's Congress heard a report on the revision of the "People's Republic of China Traditional Chinese Medicine Law (Draft)", which is the second time that the Chinese Medicine Law (Draft) has been submitted for consideration, and the country has made a clear decision on the development of traditional Chinese medicine."
Lotte looked at him and said, "What do you say about the failure of Chinese medicine to develop, what is the reason?" ”
Liao Fan said righteously: "This and this, the traditional scientific concept of Chinese medicine in China has not been promoted enough, especially the holistic view, the concept of syndrome differentiation and treatment, etc., and the people do not believe in traditional Chinese medicine, medical reform still needs to be changed, which is also the top priority of the country's development direction." ”
"Wrong, very wrong." Lotte retorted: "It's not that the people don't believe in traditional Chinese medicine, but that a large part of Western medicine doesn't believe in traditional Chinese medicine, which is a problem in the training and education of medical personnel, and from the perspective of the health system, the national health policy of attaching equal importance to traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine is fundamentally not enough." ”
After Lotte finished speaking, he pointed to all the people in the Western medical group and said frankly: "Look, they are also medical workers, but we have come here thousands of miles away, what is their attitude?" Do you treat us as peers? And what does the media say, traditional Chinese medicine, pseudoscience, charlatanism, this is traditional Chinese medicine in the eyes of the people, if you want to develop, do you only rely on propaganda? Hehe! ”
"What do you say is going to happen?" Liao Fan asked with a straight face.
"You better let go of your lofty thoughts and put yourself in the shoes of the current situation."
Lotte's voice was not small, and the eyes of everyone in the audience looked over, causing the atmosphere in the venue to be very awkward.
"Let's talk about medical reform first, most hospitals in China are benefit wages, even if they are integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine hospitals, they are all paid according to the benefits that doctors bring to the hospital, and then, when patients go to see a doctor, there is no need to take a film to take a film, there is no need for a laboratory test, Chinese and Western medicine doctors all do this, what is the tradition of Chinese medicine? The current medical system is completely contrary, in the current benefit society, in front of such a philistine, you still want to develop traditional Chinese medicine, dream. ”
Lotte said a little excited, turned his head to look at the audience, and asked: "Although what I said is a bit excessive, but my heartfelt thoughts, whether you or them, the medical system in China, Hong Kong, and the medical system are rotten, isn't it?" ”
"People have a selfish side." Professor Chu's untimely help.
"You can't say that." A Western doctor stood up and said: "Before you, the characteristic treatment of Chinese medicine that we know is generally believed to be slower than Western medicine, so Western medicine is usually the first choice when you get sick, which is the desire of the people. ”
"However, what about the facts?" Lotte asked with a cold face: "Take the contrast between Chinese and Western medicine treatment patients today, your Western medicine treats all small colds, and we treat all incurable diseases, relatively speaking, whose treatment effect is slower?" ”
"Well, you represent the highest level of Chinese medicine." A Western doctor finds an excuse.
"Yes, you have to know that my qualifications are not chief physicians, and I haven't even been admitted to the qualification certificate of practicing assistant physicians."
"What?" A group of Western doctors were shocked, and they all stood up one by one, looking at Lotte incredulously.
Liao Fan on the side slapped his forehead and muttered, "He can't get by with this stubble." ”
Lotte said with an unchanged face: "That's right, I don't have a nationally recognized medical qualification certificate, and in the ranks of doctors, do I represent the highest level?" Amusing. ”
Liao Fan hurriedly stood up and said: "Okay, let's not bite it, in the supervision report of the Medical Bureau, in fact, the efficacy of some characteristic therapies of traditional Chinese medicine is better than that of Western medicine, or because of insufficient promotion, some even shrank and stopped, which has led to everyone's awareness of traditional Chinese medicine getting lower and lower." ”
Chu Jiangnan, who was silent on the side, said:
"In this way, for example, the treatment of small splints for long bone fractures, massage therapy for muscle and tendon injuries, and the conditioning of chronic diseases, etc., such as the use of small splints in traditional Chinese medicine for the treatment of long bone fractures has a very good effect, and there will be no two injuries, which is better than the treatment effect of the steel plate, but now the hospital basically uses the steel plate, and even our Chinese medicine hospital also uses it, or because of the hospital benefits."
Liao Fan had nothing to say now, when he said his opinion, he was choked by all kinds of people, whether it was his own or an outsider, and the director had no face, so he had to sit down silently and be silent.
Lin Maosheng said while calculating: "Actually, this price is too important for the guidance of therapy, the hospital only earns about 500 yuan for small splint treatment, and the income from steel plate is 5,000 yuan to 20,000 yuan." Of course, there is also the issue of the management of health insurance. ”
Other TCM practitioners answered: "Yes, for example, stroke, a very important cause of stroke is carotid artery stenosis, and there are two treatments for severe carotid artery stenosis, one is surgery, and the other is to put a stent. And stents are much cheaper than the price of surgery. ”
Lin Maosheng Ying-co-author said: "The operation in Huaxia is about 20,000 yuan, the stent is 50,000 or 60,000 yuan, the medical insurance clearly stipulates that if the patient is a surgical indication, but the patient chooses the stent, does not do surgery, the medical insurance is not reimbursed, according to the analysis of medical insurance reimbursement records, according to the 2009 survey, China's surgery and stent ratio is 1:7, so the provisions of medical insurance and price are very important for the guidance of therapy. ”
"If you choose high-priced treatment for reimbursement, TCM treatment is cheaper, do you think that if you were a patient, would you choose high-return Western medicine?" Lotte asked.
Liao Fan was questioned by his own people, and he also became angry, and said: "Since you ask so, I will say something practical, now hospitals and doctors have no motivation for the use of traditional Chinese medicine, because the benefits of Western medicine are greater than that of traditional Chinese medicine, and there are more rebates, and hospitals and doctors will inevitably use Western medicine and various medical devices based on their own interests." What does this have to do with our Health Bureau, isn't it still the consciousness of your doctors? ”
Lin Maosheng said inappropriately: "In fact, the patient's wish is also to prescribe Western medicine, mainly because, according to the current regulations, many traditional Chinese medicines cannot be included in medical insurance. ”
Liao Fan was speechless, Chu Jiangnan said: "Indeed, Chinese medicine is not like Western medicine, Chinese medicine is not like Western medicine, the impact of profit margins on hospitals and doctors is very huge, we old Chinese medicine doctors are not very fond of money, but Western medicine cannot discriminate against us casually, in my eyes, your Western medicine is just a tool to make money with patients, and our Chinese medicine is the inheritance of the tradition of hanging pots to help the world." ”
The audience was silent for a few seconds, Lotte was the first to applaud, and then, several Chinese medicine practitioners all applauded, but in the huge venue, it looked so small and helpless.
It didn't take long for the Western doctor to show a disdainful expression, "It's like how great you are." ”
Lotte stood up and looked coldly at the Western doctor who spoke, and said: "That's right, our group of people is so great, we will not choose patients because we have money or not, and we will not die because we can't pay the hospitalization fee, you earn your money, we see our disease, you Western medicine looks down on people, in our eyes, we also look down on you." ”
After Lotte finished speaking, he left directly, and the Huaxia medical team also got up and left, and not long after, all the representatives of traditional Chinese medicine were evacuated, and only the official leaders remained.
"Director Liao, should we follow along?"
"They're going to be theirs, and you're going to join in the fun." Liao Fan is very angry today, he originally wanted to be a good man and ease the contradictions between the two sides, but who knew that the Western medicine prescription did not stimulate him, but the Chinese medicine prescription led by Lotte pouted him vigorously.
No matter what Liao Fan said, these people are all kinds of pouting, which makes the high-ranking director, how can he stand this kind of face-losing thing, and at the same time, when Lotte and they left, Liao Fan's fists clenched tightly.
"Pretentious, right, you wait for me, I still want to know if you want me when I go back."
