Chapter 63: No offense
Sun Lien sat on the stage for ten minutes, and when the many empty seats in the audience were basically filled, the host on the stage announced the start of the discussion. It was at this moment that Sun Lien felt that he might have been calculated.
Who is the specific person and what purpose is calculating himself, Sun Lien is not very sure. But after all, his identity is hung on the rostrum, and he has to speak at the meeting - all the arrangements are not announced in advance, which is certainly not a good way.
At present, it seems that the biggest suspicion is naturally on the side of the conference organizers. It's just that Sun Lien can't understand why Xiao Lin Feng, who was holding his hand before and sincerely said, "You have to forge ahead", would come up with such a trick to trick himself. At most, this kind of behavior is to make me feel a little embarrassed, and by the way, I also lose the face of Takeda Pharmaceutical's "unknown people". This kind of stupid trick that hurts others and is not beneficial to oneself, a shopping mall hero like Kobayashi Feng should not do.
Therefore, depending on the angle from which you look at things, the results will also be very different. After ruling out the suspicion of Kobayashi Feng, Sun Lien paid attention to the three people who came to the stage to speak.
The three people who came to give speeches, except for a so-called "professor of medical management" from "American Union University", the remaining two are all heads of private medical groups. Why should they be embarrassed for themselves? Sun Lien quietly listened to the speech on the stage and quickly came up with an "answer."
"China's tilt towards medical resources and discrimination against private medical institutions are simply outrageous!" The professor of medical management surnamed Pan basically did not calmly say more than three sentences on the stage. In addition to the opening remarks and self-praise, there is cursing from beginning to end.
"Why is the medical allocation only given to public hospitals? Because public hospitals make money! The most profitable hospital in Zhengzhou makes a profit of several billion yuan a year!" Professor Pan scolded and spitted at the stars, "The support for public hospitals is no longer as simple as the government supporting public welfare undertakings, it is a hospital that needs to build CT, MRI, and robot operating rooms! These are all taxes from the people, so why should they be handed over to public hospitals?"
Sun Lien happened to be drinking water when he heard this, and as soon as Professor Pan's theology came out, he was so angry that he almost squirted out the water in his mouth.
The funds obtained by the government through taxation do not give public hospitals to update their equipment and treat more patients, so is it too expensive to give them to the Putian department to continue to stop treatment in the middle of the operation?
"And the current public hospitals have all become the president's political achievement squares! What kind of emergency centers, chest pain centers, stroke centers, this center and that center are engaged one after another, but there is no intention of giving support to private medical care! Why should all the emergency treatment be handed over to public hospitals? Why not set up emergency centers for private hospitals?"
Private hospitals need to review according to the declared projects and obtain the approval of the National Health Commission before they can legally engage in medical services for the corresponding projects. If you don't declare an emergency center, do you want the National Health Commission to force you to set up an emergency center? Besides, not all private hospitals do not have emergency services. It's just that the cost of running an emergency department is too high, and the responsibilities of emergency physicians cannot be replaced simply by the attending of other departments. Unable to make money, private hospitals naturally have little initiative to set up emergency departments. Although the emergency department of the Fourth Central Hospital is the largest emergency center in the region, even with the support of President Song, it is still barely profitable every year. There is no reason why public hospitals will be scolded for such a thankless task as running an emergency department?
Professor Pan scolded on the stage, and Sun Lien showed a somewhat embarrassed expression on the rostrum.
Speaking of which, as a representative of the Fourth Central Hospital, Professor Pan is basically slapping Sun Lien in the face with every sentence. Public hospitals, emergency centres, and a new comprehensive diagnostic centre. As a part of the population that has not eaten meat, it seems that it is understandable that Professor Pan scolded two sentences - others can't eat meat, so it's always okay to scream twice, right?
But the second person who came to the stage to talk about this kind of content also made Sun Lien feel a little wrong. Is this a criticism meeting?
"As a representative of private healthcare, we are not like public hospitals, which overly pursue bed turnover rates. This gives our medical staff more time and energy to take care of each patient. And tailor the most appropriate treatment plan for them. ”
"Public hospitals are inefficient and doctors have a terrible attitude. I really can't figure out why we should tilt our already valuable resources towards public hospitals. Including the so-called Zhou Xiufang Comprehensive Diagnostic Center that Takeda Pharmaceutical is preparing to build. What's the point of giving the diagnostic center to the public hospitals? The patients they diagnose simply don't have the means to get good enough treatment!"
"The phenomenon of soliciting and accepting bribes in public hospitals is serious, very serious! I have a patient who held my hand after being cured in our hospital and said with emotion, 'If I am in a public hospital, I can't afford to pay for the red envelopes!'" ”
"The exploitation of doctors in public hospitals is simply outrageous. He wants the horses to run quickly, and he wants the horses not to graze. How is this possible? Isn't this just forcing the doctors to take the initiative to ask for bribes? The leadership of the hospital does not dare to take any responsibility, and throws any problems to the doctors below. As a result, when encountering diseases with a high mortality rate and intractable diseases, doctors will be afraid of difficulties. Find ways to refuse the patient. Those who should be treated are not treated, and patients who can be referred to lower level hospitals stay behind. To put it bluntly, it's still for the money!"
Sun Lien couldn't laugh anymore. His right hand gradually clenched from an outstretched state into a fist. The veins on it emerged and looked a little oozing.
The third speaker was Zhang Yi.
"Everyone, let's get rid of it. Zhang Yi's attitude was at least much better than that of the first two speakers. "There are many problems in the domestic healthcare system, and there are many things that need to be improved. But we must be aware that reform does not happen in a day. In order to make the medical system, which is already riddled with diseases, healthy, we must also make our own contribution to the private medical system. ”
Sun Lien took a deep breath and resisted the urge to swing his fist at the two "experts" who had already finished speaking in the distance. I'm going to hear what this Zhang Yi wants to say.
"First of all, as a private medical institution, we are subject to discrimination in all aspects. He waved his hand to the crowd to emphasize his tone. "I don't know how many of you work in private medical institutions, but we have a huge disadvantage compared to traditional public hospitals – expenditure items. This disadvantage directly leads to the fact that the private medical structure is simply unable to compete head-on with public hospitals, and you can imagine that it is also a long-distance race, and public hospitals have government spending behind them as a boost. As for us, we are carrying a burden of more than 100 pounds on our backs, and it is simply impossible to compete fairly and justly under such conditions. ”
Something was wrong with the taste. Sun Lien is already a little numb to this, anyway, the speaking style of these people is like the wind, and they won't be angry if they see more.
"Compared to public hospitals, we have to pay for the land and the support for various public hospitals. On top of that, we have to pay for the publicity ourselves. Zhang Yi seemed a little excited, "Our group spends 20% of its net profit every year on network promotion and film and television advertising!"
"20% of the income earned by our medical staff through their hard work will be given to advertising agencies, just to let the general public know about our existence and give them one more choice on the way to seek medical treatment!" Zhang Yi suddenly paused and said in a very sad tone, "I think this expenditure should have been borne by the government!"
Sun Lien almost choked to death by this sentence, and the four words of shamelessness were vividly staged on stage.
"Our private capital responded to the government's call to enter the medical industry. The original intention was to share the pressure of the intense public medical care. As a result, in order to take the pressure off them, we had to pay for it ourselves. How unfair is this?" Zhang Yi flipped his hand in the air, "And at the same time, we even have to pay VAT!"
There was an uproar in the audience.
Sun Lien began to look down and press his mobile phone to check the information, and he felt that there seemed to be something wrong with this content - Sun Lien, the financial officer of the Fourth Central Hospital, had also seen it, and they did mention it when they chatted that many items in medical institutions should be exempt from VAT.
"I just said so much, most of it was whining. Zhang Yi let out a long breath, as if to soothe his excited emotions. "At the beginning, I said that private medical institutions should contribute to the reform of the domestic medical system. In the rest of the time, I'm going to talk about my thoughts on contribution. ”
"First of all, I was opposed to Professor Pan's point at the beginning. Zhang Yi nodded at the Pan "professor", as if apologizing. "I believe that public health care in the country should change in the opposite direction. Public health care should focus more on emergency services. Public hospitals should do away with inpatient and outpatient services, and keep and expand the emergency business!"
It's a theism again. Sun Lien glanced at Zhang Yi, who was talking eloquently, shook his head slightly, and lowered his head to record the other party's main arguments in his notebook. When you go back, you must come one by one, in case you miss any of them and you don't hit them in place, it's too unpleasant.
"As you all know, public health care itself is a public good. The government spends so much money every year not to make the already profitable public hospitals bigger and stronger. It is to solve the problem that it is difficult and expensive for more patients to see a doctor. But it has been proven that this path does not work. There are more and more medical disputes, and doctors have become synonymous with 'making money and harming others' in the minds of the common people! This just shows that there are very serious problems in public medical care. In order to reflect the public welfare, public health care should focus more on emergency services. As we all know, the emergency department is one of the main ways for patients to have direct contact with the hospital, and most of the emergency patients are acutely ill. At this time, our public medical institutions should take the initiative to stand up and take responsibility. Our private medical care can cover the diagnosis and treatment of diseases that are not urgent. Take full advantage of our system to provide patients with more comfortable and personalized care. Zhang Yi described his plan in a very dreamy tone. "In this way, we can not only give full play to the advantages of public medical care, but also ensure the operation rate of private medical institutions - the vacancy of the medical equipment we have invested in is itself a serious waste of medical resources." ”
"And, I'm still here, appealing to Takeda Pharmaceutical. Zhang Yi pointed to his body, referring to the organizer of this meeting, "For the healthy development of my country's medical system, I suggest that your company cancel the donation to the comprehensive diagnosis center of Ningyuan Fourth Central Hospital!"
Sun Lien laughed angrily, shaking his head while laughing. The current situation is obvious, probably Kobayashi Feng plans to let himself and these guys with holes in their brains spray for a while, so as to gain some fame. However, even if Kobayashi Feng did not make this kind of arrangement to fool people into power, Sun Lien did not intend to endure it. These people are indeed quite capable, and they can rely on a three-inch incorruptible tongue to say that the black is white. But Sun, who has little experience in debating, has no doubt that he is about to win - no amount of clever words can carry more weight than a trace of fact.
"Ladies and gentlemen, based on the information I have obtained, the comprehensive diagnostic center that Takeda Pharmaceutical is preparing to donate to the Fourth Central Hospital of Ningyuan City is worth more than 200 million US dollars in equipment alone. Zhang Yi waved the A4 printer paper in his hand that he didn't know where to get it from, and he didn't know what was written on it. "Most of these devices are high-tech equipment that has been around for less than five years. I have no doubt that when the donation is completed, Ningyuan Fourth Central Hospital will be able to obtain extremely excellent diagnostic tools, and even say that they can become the top five hospitals in the country in the imaging department, but!" Zhang Yi's voice rose again, "However, for a hospital that focuses on emergency medicine, this ability is obviously excessive!"
Sun Lien has heard this argument more than once. The people of the Health Commission also had this attitude before-this point was also mentioned by Liu Tangchun to Sun Lien.
"For the sake of the healthy development of our country's healthcare system, I strongly recommend that Takeda Pharmaceutical separate these devices and donate them to other medical institutions. In particular, private healthcare, as an important supplement to the domestic medical system, has been neglected for too long. Zhang Yi said, and even two tears came out of his face. "If Takeda can take my advice, it will have a very positive impact on your company's reputation in China. In order to open up the domestic market, lay a very good foundation. ”
There was silence. Finally, it was Sun Lien's turn to take the stage to speak.
Sun Lien was silent for a while, put on his white coat, and walked onto the stage with a notebook full of points. He coughed lightly and tapped his finger on the microphone in front of him. After confirming that the sound transmission was normal, he whispered, "Hello participants, I ...... I am a doctor in the emergency department of the Fourth Central Hospital of Ningyuan City, and my name is Sun Lien. He raised his head, looked at the crowd that was already in a little commotion, and then looked at the three "experts" who had finished speaking, and the corners of his mouth grinned.
"I would like to say that the three people who have just spoken...... Well, no offense. Sun Lien smiled even brighter, he learned Dean Song's posture, and continued, "It's all stupid. ”
