Promoting the Level of Primary Medical Care

With the deepening of China's health care system reform and the continuous advancement of graded diagnosis and treatment system, township medical institutions undertake the task of receiving large numbers of people in rural areas. Currently, high-quality medical resources are mainly distributed in the first, second and third-tier cities. For the rural population, more manpower and resources are needed for medical treatment. Time cost and capacity building of township health centers need to be strengthened urgently.
In response to the policy of "13th Five-Year Plan for Health and Health" and "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan for Deepening Reform of Medical and Health System" of the 13th Five-Year Plan for Health and Health Reform, we should focus on people's health and improve the level of diagnosis and treatment in township health centers. Hospital Management Institute of the State Health Commission Under the guidance of the Medical Administration of the National Health Commission and with the support of Pfizer Pfizer, the project of "county is sailing"-capacity building of key clinical specialties in hospital management of county-level public hospitals has been carried out for four years. Up to now, 2600 county hospital directors, 3400 specialist backbone doctors and nearly 10,000 remote trainers have been trained. Chen Xiaohong, director of hospital evaluation and Research Department of Hospital Management Institute of the National Health and Health Commission, said that the "medical community" model was gradually established under the call of the National Health and Health Commission, but through the actual experience of "county is sailing", it shows that there is still "the last" in medical construction from county to township. One kilometer has not been opened yet. The Notice on Promoting the Construction of a Close County Medical and Health Community (hereinafter referred to as "Notice") issued in May this year has injected new vitality into the "County is sailing" project. Under this background, the Hospital Management Research Institute has launched the "Short-term Communication and Learning Project for Township Health Hospitals", which is the "Last Kilometer Project".
It is known that this project, as an important sub-project of "county is sailing", gathers the strength of experts in domestic counties. By supporting some doctors in township hospitals to conduct short-term learning and communication in County hospitals, it provides a platform for doctors in township hospitals to learn, communicate and share, and improves the reality of township doctors. Operational and medical technology level will help the construction of "Medical Community". From June 18 to 28, 2019, the first batch of training was successfully carried out in 24 training bases in 7 provinces, including Heilongjiang Province, Jilin Province, Liaoning Province, Henan Province, Jiangsu Province, Shandong Province and Shanxi Province, covering more than 300 key doctors in township hospitals.
Establishing a close medical community to overcome the difficulties of improving the level of primary medical care. According to the requirements of the Notice, in the future, medical communities should be established in the county, gradually realizing the sharing of medical resources in the region, and further improving the capacity of primary medical services. As the first "safe post" for the health of township residents, it is urgent to improve the medical service capacity of township hospitals.
Chen Xiaohong said that in the process of promoting the decline of medical technology service capacity and driving county hospitals to strive to achieve "serious illness does not go to county, minor illness does not go to village", it was found that patients from grass-roots areas such as townships and towns still can not enjoy good medical conditions due to distance, cost and other factors. There are still many bottlenecks in the "last kilometer" of medical treatment. The most important problem is that the level of primary medical care needs to be improved.
"Through the project of `Last Kilometer', doctors in township areas are trained systematically and pertinently, and then extended to village-level hospitals, which can open the last kilometre of grass-roots medical staff from theory to practice, and constantly improve and promote the construction of a close county medical and health community. ” Chen Xiaohong said. According to Chen Xiaohong, at present, primary medical institutions generally face two major problems of management and technology. In order to solve these problems, in the future, we will focus on improving the management level and technical level of grass-roots hospitals, and strive to implement the requirements of the "Notice" that "by the end of 2020, the county-level visiting rate can reach 90%, the county-level visiting rate can reach 65%, and the technology and projects carried out by grass-roots medical and health institutions will continue to grow. Plus. In addition, we should continue to play the leading role of county hospitals and make them master more scientific management methods through training, so as to become the leader of the grass-roots medical community. Cui Yanzhan, president of Tailai People's Hospital in Heilongjiang Province, said that for this project, each hospital will further classify the training work according to its own actual situation. It undertakes the construction of the medical community in 12 Township hospitals, and improves the local medical service level by sending high-quality medical services to the township, as well as sitting, patrolling and ward-round. In addition, in promoting discipline construction, Cui Yanzhan said that in the process of overall hospital planning, the hospital also selected several key specialty department directors and senior professional experts, such as neurology, cardiology, digestion and endocrinology, to conduct on-site training for local students at the grass-roots level. Members can communicate through interaction, questions and other means, and experts who have questions will further answer them. Gao Sixin, president of the Hongsheng Hospital of Heping Town, Tailai County, Heilongjiang Province, as the first group of grass-roots doctors trained in this project, was deeply impressed by this activity.
