　　The health of a person is the foundation of one's life, and the health of the people is the foundation of a nation.

　　From the northeast to the southwest, braving the severe cold, stepping on the ice and snow, and visiting the old areas in the deep mountains, General Secretary Xi Jinping always cares about the people’s medical treatment in every place; from striving to ensure people’s health in an all-round and full cycle to building a strong public health The system, checking the facts, making deployments, each major decision, embodies the deep thinking and long-term planning of the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at the core.

　　Without the health of the whole people, there will be no comprehensive well-off.

　　Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping has been standing at the height of realizing national rejuvenation and enhancing people's well-being. He has made strategic guidelines for promoting the construction of a healthy China, opening a new phase in the construction of a healthy China, and constantly laying a healthy foundation for a better life for the people.

Solving the problem of "medicating the sick" in primary health centers

　　Whether the primary health center is built is directly related to whether it is convenient and accessible for the people to see a doctor.

　　Shiye Town, Dantu District, Zhenjiang, Jiangsu, is a "small island" in the vast Yangtze River.

In the past, about 14,000 people in the town were “fear of death to death, but also to death of traffic.” Major and minor illnesses all counted on the small “island health center”.

　　In December 2014, General Secretary Xi Jinping came to Shiye Town Health Center to learn about the development of rural medical and health services and the situation of villagers' medical treatment.

　　"It was cold. When shaking hands, I originally stretched out one hand and put the other in my pocket, but the general secretary held my hand with both hands, and I quickly stretched out the other hand."

　　The old villager Wei Dingyu who was present at the scene felt not only the temperature of General Secretary Xi Jinping’s palms: “In addition to asking about the health condition, the General Secretary was also concerned about the convenience and inconvenience of our medical treatment, whether the medical expenses were expensive, and whether he was satisfied with the rural medical and health work. satisfaction."

　　The basic needs of the common people are the basic needs of the people, and it is also the general secretary's deep concern.

　　At the Shiye Town Health Center, General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized that the focus of medical and health work should be lowered, medical and health resources should be sinked, and basic public services in urban and rural areas should be equalized, so as to provide the people with safe, effective, convenient and inexpensive public health and basic medical services. , Really solve the problem of difficult and expensive medical treatment for the grassroots.

　　Focusing on the difficulties and obstructions of basic-level people seeking medical treatment, General Secretary Xi Jinping has shown concern and sympathy to the people time and time again.

　　He is concerned about the implementation of the new rural cooperative system——

　　In Gujiatai Village, Fuping County, Hebei Province, General Secretary Xi Jinping went to the village clinic to carefully understand the implementation of the new rural cooperative medical system and the supply of medicines, and urged local officials to care about the health of the villagers and ensure that everyone can see and cure the disease. .

　　He pays attention to the progress of general practitioner team building——

　　In Fumin New Village, Huanghuatan Ecological Immigration Zone, Gulang County, Wuwei City, Gansu Province, General Secretary Xi Jinping asked: "How many clinics are there in the village?" "Are they all general practitioners?" The local cadre told the general secretary that standardized village sanitation has been established throughout the village. There are 6 clinics, all with qualified village doctors, and the township health center also has general practitioners.

　　He is concerned about the construction of primary medical institutions and medical security-

　　In the Shazhou Yao Village, Wenming Yao Township, Rucheng County, Chenzhou City, Hunan Province, General Secretary Xi Jinping walked into the village clinic to understand the basic medical security situation and urged local officials: “We must focus on solving the problem of'difficult and expensive medical treatment' and deepen public hospitals. Reform, strengthen the comprehensive capacity building of county-level hospitals, strengthen the construction of standardized village clinics and urban community health institutions, and improve public health and disease prevention and control systems."

　　Today, my country has basically built a primary medical and health service network covering both urban and rural areas, and the "health dividends" brought to residents by local township hospitals are gradually being released.

Take the Shiye Town Health Center as an example. The health center and Zhenjiang Medical Group jointly established multiple joint clinics for cardiovascular and diabetes. In addition to the regular rooms, it is also equipped with medical equipment such as color Doppler ultrasound and automatic biochemical analyzer.

　　For more than five years after General Secretary Xi Jinping came, Wei Dingyu went to the health center for regular inspections, keeping in mind the instructions of the General Secretary.

"I am very careful now, and I can control my mouth and open my legs. I usually use the instruments sent to us by the health center to measure blood sugar and blood pressure at home, and the data is transmitted to the health center in real time."

Settle the medical bills and get rid of poverty alleviation "blockers"

　　General Secretary Xi Jinping has repeatedly emphasized the need to solve the problem of poverty caused by illness and return to poverty because of illness.

　　"How much do you spend on medical expenses?" This is a question on the people's livelihood that General Secretary Xi Jinping would ask during inspections in many places.

　　On the eve of the 2017 Spring Festival, General Secretary Xi Jinping came to Desheng Village, Xiaoertai Town, Zhangbei County, Zhangjiakou City, Hebei Province.

　　The outside was snowy and dripping into ice, and the small living room of the villager Xu Haicheng's family was warm as spring.

General Secretary Xi Jinping sat on the sofa at his home and worked with the folks in the village to calculate the income and expenditure accounts for a year, summing up the poverty alleviation plan for the coming year.

　　"Look at your family's expenditure account. In one year, the productive expenditure is 12,700, and the family expenditure is 29,000. The two items add up to 42,000?" General Secretary Xi Jinping asked.

　　"Family expenses are mainly for the wife to see a doctor, and the second daughter goes to school to study Chinese medicine, and the tuition fee is 18,000 yuan a year." Xu Haicheng said.

　　"In rural areas, medical insurance for major illnesses must be covered, so as not to return to poverty due to illness." General Secretary Xi Jinping's words are both direct and caring.

　　"Getting out of poverty must work with the masses to settle accounts and ask the masses to acknowledge them." After interviewing the poor and asking questions, General Secretary Xi Jinping fulfilled the party and government's promises to the people.

　　On April 15, 2019, in Huaxi Village, Zhongyi Township, Shizhu Tujia Autonomous County, Chongqing, General Secretary Xi Jinping walked up the slippery stone steps to the poor family Tan Dengzhou’s house. He saw the house from outside and asked in detail about the life and health of the old couple situation.

　　The old couple of Tan Dengzhou and Zhou returned to poverty due to illness and injury in 2018. Under the assistance policy, they gradually got rid of poverty, and their basic life was guaranteed.

General Secretary Xi Jinping worked out the income account and medical account together with them: "How much is the allowance for subsistence allowances?" "How much is the income from land transfer for a year?" "How much do you spend on medical expenses? How much is reimbursed?" How much is alimony?" General Secretary Xi Jinping asked very carefully.

　　"I heard that I was reimbursed for 90% of the hospitalization expenses for my injury last year, and the village helped to make the most of it. The general secretary is very happy." Tan Dengzhou said, "Now that the subsistence allowance, pension, and land transfer income are combined, life is not a problem. Be tough, I want to raise a few colonies of bees and plant two mu of Chinese medicinal materials."

　　"Basic medical insurance, critical illness insurance, and medical assistance are important guarantees to prevent people from returning to poverty due to illness. This bottom line is very important." General Secretary Xi Jinping said: "We must do our work deep and practical, and focus on those who have not yet The work for people who are alleviated from poverty or who return to poverty due to illness and injury will speed up the improvement of relevant support and guarantee measures such as subsistence allowances, medical insurance, and medical assistance, and use the system to ensure that the poor are truly and stable out of poverty."

　　"Diagnosis and treatment first, pay later", "one-stop" instant settlement...With the accelerated process of poverty alleviation, my country has included all the poor people who have filed cards into the coverage of basic medical insurance, critical illness insurance and medical assistance systems for urban and rural residents. Implement tilted care.

Focus on the construction of public health system from the height of national overall strategy

　　In 2020, a pandemic hits suddenly.

Under the strong leadership of the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core, 1.4 billion people are united and united. After arduous struggles, they have effectively contained the epidemic. The People's War, the overall war, and the deterrence war in the prevention and control of the new crown pneumonia epidemic in China have achieved major strategic results.

　　The epidemic has not subsided, and the big exam is still going on.

How to weave a dense public health protection network is a must-answer question in China's fight against the epidemic, and it is also a matter of concern for General Secretary Xi Jinping.

　　Hubei and Wuhan are the top priorities for epidemic prevention and control.

Since the outbreak, the situation in Hubei and Wuhan has always affected General Secretary Xi Jinping's heart.

　　This year, at the National Two Sessions, General Secretary Xi Jinping specifically proposed to go to the Hubei delegation to participate in the deliberation.

　　On the afternoon of May 24, at the deliberation scene of the Hubei delegation, representative Luo Jie, the party secretary and dean of Shiyan Taihe Hospital, sat opposite General Secretary Xi Jinping and was the first to speak.

　　"How many medical staff does your hospital have for infectious diseases?" the general secretary asked.

　　"There are 16 nurses and 10 doctors in the Department of Infectious Diseases, including 3 doctors." Roger replied.

　　"If it's not for a major infectious disease like the new coronary pneumonia, it can be dealt with under normal circumstances, right?"

　　"If there are not so many patients in a short period of time, it is absolutely fine."

　　The general secretary nodded.

　　"Reform the disease prevention and control system", "Improve epidemic monitoring and early warning and emergency response capabilities", "Improve the major epidemic response system", "Improve public health emergency laws and regulations", "Develop patriotic health campaigns in depth"... At the review site, President Xi Jinping The secretary analyzed the problem in depth from 5 aspects and put forward precise countermeasures.

　　The key to weaving the net for public health governance lies at the grassroots level and the bottom of the net is at the grassroots level.

After inspections, meetings, and decisions, the construction of the public health system is always the focus of General Secretary Xi Jinping.

　　Based on the current and long-term perspective-During the inspection in Zhejiang, General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized that we should strengthen strategic planning and forward-looking layout, adhere to the combination of peace and war, improve the major epidemic prevention and control system and mechanism, improve the public health emergency management system, and promote the work force to the front line Shen.

　　Improving mechanisms and systems-During an inspection in Anhui, General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized the need to improve the prevention, control and treatment of major epidemics and improve the public health emergency management system.

　　The people come first.

　　From the old revolutionary base in Hebei, to Dingxi, Gansu, which is "the barren world", to the home of a fellow villager in Jingyuan, Ningxia, General Secretary Xi Jinping always wonders whether the health of the people is guaranteed.

　　From “intensifying the reform of the disease prevention and control system” to “enhancing early monitoring and early warning capabilities”, to “not missing an infected person, and not giving up every patient”, we are striving for a decisive victory in building a well-off society in all respects and fighting poverty. On the journey of continuing to forge ahead with the set goals, the decisions and deployments surrounding the strengthening of the public health and disease control system are all in order to fulfill the solemn oath made to all people-
