Donation of 500,000 yen per patient To receiving hospital Chiba Prefecture, May 14, 16:58
In order to reduce the administrative burden on hospitals that accept new coronavirus-infected persons, Chiba Prefecture has decided to pay 500,000 yen per person to each hospital that accepts patients.
In Chiba prefecture, about 550 of the 880 infected people have been hospitalized and treated at about 60 hospitals in the prefecture. From the hospital that accepts patients, it is necessary to open the surrounding beds to prevent infection of other inpatients, and it is costly to prevent hospital infections and secure doctors and nurses. There were many voices saying that the burden was heavy.
In response to this, Chiba Prefecture decided to pay the cooperation fee to prevent hospital deterioration to hospitals in the prefecture that accepted infected people after the first day of last month.
Specifically, in addition to paying 500,000 yen for acceptance of one patient, if a bed for hospitalization is secured in advance or the surrounding beds are opened to prevent the spread of infection, ICU = concentration per bed per day We will support 97,000 yen for the treatment room and 16,000 yen for other beds.
Governor Morita said that he would use the grant from the national government as the financial source, "I would like to firmly support the prefecture and continue to respond while considering the possibility that the number of patients will increase again in the future."
