Chapter 225: The Rise of Modern Medicine (Part II)

'Death is not necessarily terrible, what is terrible is to die worthlessly, life is not necessarily happy, happiness is to live a complete and healthy life. ’

On the pillars outside the teaching building of Imperial Medical University hangs Wu Qi's motto, as sharp as ever. Although he likes to work out and cook in his spare time, Wu Qi still likes to talk with a knife in his heart. Meat cleavers and kitchen knives are much more casual than scalpels, but Wu Qi, who is very precise, almost identical dishes are served every time he feasts Li Ji and other colleagues. The shape of each egg and piece of meat is almost the same, and even the garlic sprouts are cut at the same angle. The initial purpose of Wu Qi fitness is also to exercise a body that can work for a long time without getting tired, and it is normal to stand for seven or eight hours after a major operation. In the later stage, it has become a habit of refreshing the mind and practicing health.

A large number of ancient classics are piled up in the storerooms of the classical library of the Traveler as if they do not need money, and the huge bookstore has a group of translators who receive the allowance issued by the Traveler to translate these ancient classics every day. Among them, various classics related to martial arts, medicine and the human body were selected by Wu Qi and placed in the library of the medical university as reference materials for the compilation of the national health guide. After reading dozens of classics compiled by students after being screened by students, Wu Qi combined his own experience and modern medical achievements to invent a set of exercises similar to the Yijin Sutra, and insisted on practicing it every day.

often pulls a few otaku from science and engineering with Wang Xinyu, a military otaku, to run laps in the playground and practice equipment in the gym, the purpose is also very simple. In order to build a large number of medical devices. To solve the serious shortage of raw materials for medical stainless steel appliances and medical rubber, plastics, precious metals, precision instruments and other medical consumables used to manufacture, Wu Qi had to deal with the relationship with Qian Jin, Zhou Lijian and others who were in charge of the production department of these things.

Including basic surgical instruments, microsurgical instruments, neurosurgical instruments, ophthalmic surgical instruments, otolaryngology surgical instruments, dental surgical instruments, thoracic cardiovascular surgical instruments, abdominal surgical instruments, urorectal surgical instruments, orthopedic (orthopedic) surgical instruments, obstetrics and gynecology surgical instruments, family planning surgical instruments, injection puncture instruments, burn (plastic) surgical instruments, general examination instruments, medical electronic instruments and equipment, medical optical instruments, instruments and endoscopic equipment, Medical ultrasound instruments and related equipment, medical laser instruments and equipment, medical high-frequency instruments and equipment, physical therapy and rehabilitation equipment, traditional Chinese medicine equipment, medical magnetic resonance equipment, medical X-ray equipment, medical X-ray auxiliary equipment and components, medical high-energy radiation equipment, medical nuclide equipment, medical radiation protection equipment, devices, clinical laboratory and analysis instruments, medical laboratory and basic equipment and appliances, extracorporeal circulation and blood processing equipment, implanted materials and artificial organs, operating rooms, emergency rooms, diagnosis and treatment room equipment and appliances, Dental equipment and appliances, ward nursing equipment and appliances, disinfection and sterilization equipment and appliances, medical cold therapy, low temperature, refrigeration equipment and appliances, dental materials, medical health materials and dressings, medical suture materials and adhesives, medical polymer materials and products, etc., are all the crystallization of modern science and technology.

In order to get a supply of consumables that can keep up with the pace of expansion of the medical hardware system, Wu Qi tried his best. All the tricks he learned during his internship in school and big hospitals to deal with large precision imported equipment suppliers were used on Qian Jin and Zhou Lijian. Whether it is to be a family health doctor or a cooking banquet, or even to go in and out of various entertainment and consumption places to provide entertainment, the errand that should have been handed over to students and the following hospitals to operate and procure, day and night in the meeting to propose a new construction, expansion of those consumables manufacturers production capacity, Wu Qi has successfully established a nearly modern medical level in the internal hospital of Chenji Group. All kinds of software and hardware facilities have basically reached the level of the early days after the end of the Cold War, and some high-precision equipment that does not involve lasers, optical fibers, and nuclear magnetic resonance (such as hospital beds, infusion equipment, intravenous indwelling needles, infant care equipment, dialysis machines, microscopes, pacemakers, defibrillators, ventilators, electrocardiographs, hyperbaric oxygen chambers, etc.) have reached the most advanced level that everyone has ever seen.

Wu Qi has never won in the competition for talents, resources, and technology quotas (the restriction of opening the golden finger, that is, the annual quota that unblocks the future technology reserves) in other departments that have crossed the jurisdiction. Because he not only controls all the hospitals, but is also the only person in charge of a large field that is not for profit. Compared with other wealthy people who travel through the public (not to mention Liu Xin, the financial housekeeper, Liu Jiao, who is the most oily and waterless, is in charge of the Patent Office and the Central Bureau of Statistics. The annual royalties collected from partners and many technology licensing companies are huge, and Zhongtong is a powerful intelligence agency responsible for all government needs for statistical surveys, and also has a large budget). Wu Qi is simply a white hole that can only be entered and exited. The dividends and income received every year from Chenji Group and other public offices, titles, and senior management positions of the industry under his name are 99 in addition to the needs of maintaining their lives. 9,999% of them went to a special account to help medical and charitable causes.

In terms of his attitude towards money, Wu Qi is not a little greedy, and he always makes Li Ji and others ashamed, and his legendary attribute perfectionist will naturally not pursue the perfection of his career.

In the eyes of ordinary people, free, high-quality medical services are good and perfect. But this is not the case in Wu Qi's eyes, and the future era must be the era of communism. This is certain, so the perfect medical service is self-healing. Wu Qi and other traversers agreed that leapfrogging development can only rely on the masses to learn and improve themselves in a comprehensive propaganda campaign, and that no matter how rapid the growth of huge medical resources and how they are fairly distributed, they will never be enough to meet the growing needs of the masses.

The core slogan in the ten-year medical career plan is to treat minor diseases by themselves, go to the clinic for medium diseases, go to hospitals for major diseases, and make rational use of medical resources. At the heart of this is a constant propaganda bombardment, similar to Japan's earthquake drills, in which a large amount of resources are invested every year in training adults in various settlements in addition to schools. In each community and at the grassroots level, there are general practitioners, who make a preliminary diagnosis of each patient to determine whether he or she should go to the community service station or the hospital level. This innovation establishes a 'gatekeeper' system and is also a good way to reduce waste.

In addition to improving the utilization efficiency according to the diversion of the number of medical resources according to the number of service objects, there is also the establishment of the three pillars of national medical welfare system innovation, that is, the government funds to reimburse the financial expenditure and welfare part of the sum of all expenditures such as medical treatment, surgery, hospitalization, nutrition, etc., the part of the financial expenditure and welfare that exceeds 2,000 yuan, the part of commercial insurance reimbursement between 200 and 2,000, and the medical provident fund paid by each citizen during his or her working period (12 yuan per year, Once a year) is earmarked for medical expenses of less than 200 (the enterprise and the government will equally pay for the part greater than 12 and less than 200, and the government will bear the part paid by the enterprise if there is no employment).

In fact, this system does not cost much to the government, and the vast majority of the population does not spend much a year on common illnesses (colds, fevers, coughs, minor trauma and infections), and chronic diseases among the elderly are rare (deficits). When the system was first established, there were very few elderly people over 60 years old, less than 2% of the population, and after the establishment of a few decades, when most of the elderly began to spend large sums of money, their accumulated insurance premiums and provident funds were not a small number, enough to cope with the expenses of about ten years, and the state was to pay for a number of years between the age of 70 and death, and the surplus of the treasury and the interest on the accumulated insurance money, provident fund and pension account were enough to make up for the gap caused by this expenditure. (The accumulated funds in these national welfare accounts are the main source of the purchase of government bonds and blue-chip stocks, and they are basically guaranteed to make money without losing money.) ）

The vast majority of public hospital expenditures come from the annual fixed proportion of the fiscal allocation, which means that as the revenue of the government increases, the allocation of the hospital also increases. Most provincial and prefecture-level hospitals can share 3% of the annual budget of the corresponding level of local finance, and a large part of it is used to cover the hospital account deficit between 12 yuan and 200 yuan for patients. Combined with other public health and medical expenditures, which can exceed 5% of the budget, that's a lot of money.

Wu Qi, who has only passed the age of confusion, is playing with Li Ji and others almost every day, constantly relying on high-end medical care, health preservation, and recuperation industries to make money in the wealthy class, almost every high-end entertainment and consumption place has Wu Qi's shadow, Wu Qi, who takes advantage everywhere, naturally has the ability to take advantage, and a lot of bosses and rich people are willing to spend a lot of money to listen to Wu Qi's health classes and accept the services of Wu Qi's students. When it comes to the ability to accumulate wealth, Wu Qi may not be able to catch up with Liu Xin and Wang Neng and other masters of capital operation, but the enthusiasm for collecting wealth is difficult for others to match.

A large number of proud protégés are working with the essence of medical masters to treat diseases and save people, and at the same time, they give speeches and teach everywhere to collect money, and the ticket money obtained has been 'drained' by public welfare organizations such as the Imperial Medical Research and Development Foundation and the Imperial Medical Security Foundation established by Wu Qi.

In later generations, it is normal for a speech to be 100,000 yuan, and any guy with the name of a master can get tens of thousands of appearance fees. Hundreds of authoritative professors organize 3,000 sessions a year and earn billions of dollars. But Wu Qi is not a fool, where do the teachers and students who are too busy with serious things have time to do this, so the ones who come forward are those who are eloquent and have poor hands-on ability. The senior brothers with high skills are busy doing surgeries to save people or doing research day and night, and the affairs that show up are all thrown to those 'talents' who Wu Qi has other appointments at the end of the performance crane.

Wu Qi, who has abundant funds, naturally set up a large number of aristocratic private hospitals with private equity participation but not management to subsidize these foundations that spend huge sums of money to sponsor public hospitals every year.

After solving the problem of difficulty in curing diseases and lack of money for treatment, the old saying will lose its chance. (To be continued......)
