National Health and Health Commission: can't "cut through all" daily medical services

Issued by the state: in areas outside Hubei Province, we should closely integrate the situation of epidemic development, focus on epidemic prevention and control and medical services at the same time We should not do all-in-one treatment We should not shut down the routine medical services in the way of stopping diagnosis According to incomplete statistics of grassroots doctors' communes, at least 15 provincial-level administrative regions in the country have faced suspension of diagnosis or infusion in some county and urban clinics and village clinics in recent years Photo source: organized by grassroots doctors' Commune After the suspension, how to solve the basic and chronic diseases of patients, and how to balance the revenue of individual clinics during the suspension For a while, the topic of stopping diagnosis and forbidding transfusion became the focus of primary medical practitioners At present, the general situation and overall situation of the epidemic situation are the aspiration of the people However, whether the measures of stopping diagnosis in a large area at the grass-roots level will affect the overall situation is worth discussing What problems might be caused by the short-term suspension of treatment and transportation to basic medical institutions, especially clinics and village clinics? According to the reality of some readers' feedback, the author sorts it out It is mainly reflected in the following aspects: Clinics and village clinics are the most convenient and quick places for medical treatment, which play an irreplaceable role in the treatment and management of some common and chronic diseases The "small hospital" at the door of the home suddenly stops treatment, which directly affects the patient's treatment habits In the case that the epidemic situation has not been effectively controlled and the stop time is to be determined, the treatment problems of patients with basic diseases and chronic diseases can not be solved temporarily The needs of these patients can not be met nearby, which may lead to the phenomenon of piling up to see a large hospital or handling at home by themselves, and the potential safety risks are incalculable Some clinic experienced people reported that although they did a good job in explanation, some patients did not have a high degree of compliance and cooperation The most direct impact of temporary closure of clinics and village clinics on some individual practitioners is the reduction of income For them, the amount of diagnosis and treatment is a hard indicator of revenue According to the notice issued by the above regions, the time for resumption of business is mainly determined by the situation of epidemic control In other words, if the epidemic is not under control for one day, their business premises cannot be opened for business If there is no additional source of income for the self-employed, the period when they stop business is the period of grain shortage, which will inevitably affect their short-term quality of life, and may also lead to the loss of some patient resources due to the suspension of business Since the outbreak of the epidemic, many readers have left a message saying that although their clinics and village clinics belong to grass-roots medical institutions, and their equipment and facilities are not as perfect as those of large hospitals, it is difficult for the country and the people of Wuhan As medical workers, they are eager to take on the responsibility of saving the dead and helping the wounded and contribute their own strength However, after the notice of stopping diagnosis was issued, the channels that can contribute to the strength were cut off Some grassroots doctors spoke frankly, and there was a feeling that they were full of strength but had no place to make it They were very helpless Clinics and village clinics are important components of medical resources at the grass-roots level, many of which play an important role in the process of hierarchical diagnosis and treatment They are also eager to go to the "battlefield" and contribute their light and heat to the fight against the epidemic On February 17, the general office of the national health and Health Commission issued a notice to address the following problems: "in some areas, medical services have been weakened, and the basic medical needs of the masses can not be met in time"
