  The National Health Commission held a press conference on the 23rd to introduce my country's hierarchical diagnosis and treatment system and system construction.

At the meeting, some reporters asked questions about the terms "medical consortium" and "medical consortium" frequently mentioned by the public.

  "In the past few years, everyone is familiar with the term'medical consortium"." Guo Yanhong said that the medical conjoined body used one sentence to explain the pain of the masses in the process of medical treatment. .

The construction of the medical consortium is to promote the people to realize the first diagnosis and treatment at the grassroots level, two-way referral, emergency and slow treatment, and upper and lower linkage in the process of medical treatment.

  The so-called medical consortium is based on the principle of government-led overall planning, according to the grid, according to the functions, positioning, and levels of different medical institutions, and then form a consortium.

In the consortium, the formation of a people-oriented, patient-centered whole chain of continuous medical services is the most important role of the medical consortium, and it is parallel to the pattern and purpose of the hierarchical diagnosis and treatment. Therefore, the medical consortium It is an important path to achieve hierarchical diagnosis and treatment.

  Guo Yanhong introduced that there are four forms of medical consortia: one is a medical group in the city, the other is a medical community within a county, the third is a cross-regional specialist alliance, and the fourth is a telemedicine collaboration network.

  Guo Yanhong pointed out that there are still many problems in the construction of the medical consortium.

First of all, the first question is how to solve the "union" of the medical consortium.

  "This'joint' is definitely not about people's'free love', how they want to join, but in accordance with the principles of overall planning, scientific and reasonable, grid design by the government according to local conditions, forming different functional positioning in the medical union. Different levels of medical institutions form a synergy to cover the needs of the local people for medical treatment. Therefore, the'union' must be well linked and scientifically linked." Guo Yanhong said.

  The second problem is to solve the problem of how to develop the medical consortium.

Guo Yanhong pointed out that the medical consortium is a community, and the functional positioning of various types of medical institutions at all levels must be fully realized in the medical consortium.

Last year, based on the problem-oriented approach, the hospital-medical consortium management method was specially formulated, and the medical consortium management method was used to promote the multi-point practice of doctors in the medical consortium, as well as the information sharing, resource sharing, talent sharing and corresponding issues in the medical consortium. Management mechanism to promote the establishment of a mechanism for hierarchical diagnosis and treatment, division of labor and collaboration.

In the medical union, all medical institutions can have a common and continuous development and improvement basis to mobilize the enthusiasm of various medical institutions.

  The third problem is to solve how to provide patients with homogeneous, high-quality and efficient medical services in this medical union.

Guo Yanhong emphasized that there are not only construction issues, but also management issues, as well as incentive mechanism issues, as well as the issue of payment of medical insurance costs. Through the resolution of these issues, the enthusiasm of medical institutions at all levels and various types to participate in the construction of medical consortia can be mobilized. And strengthen the provision of continuous and coordinated medical services for patients.

  "In the next step, we must summarize the good experience and good methods in the process of promoting the construction of medical consortia, and continue to form system designs. In particular, we must vigorously promote the pilot projects of county medical communities and urban medical groups, and strengthen the grid. Build layout and standardize management, and at the same time promote the reform of medical insurance payment methods, guide the medical consortium to pay more attention to the combination of disease prevention and treatment, pay more attention to the improvement of grassroots capabilities, and better promote the formation of grassroots first diagnosis, two-way referral, emergency and slow treatment, and upper and lower linkages The hierarchical diagnosis and treatment pattern." Guo Yanhong said.
