Billing in Hospital Yesterday I write something about the difference between the doctors in China and the US. However, those are not significant compared to the billing differences. In China, doctor is almost the most dangerous job, even compared with corps. There were lots of news about doctors hurt by patients or their relatives. People abroad may not aware why this happens. Doctors are the most polite persons in the country, they always like to help others, and others always love them back. This is what we usually think about, and this is the relationship exists in the US. Even Chinese themselves do not understand why they hate doctors so deep. Yesterday I asked what is suppose to happen when doctors in China and the US switch their places? I guess you should have the same answer with me, they will change themselves. My point is: The reason why doctors being hurt is not come from the doctors, nor the patients. The billing decides everything, simply speaking , money is the reason. People in China always complains about how expensive and hard to fix a disease in hospital. Actually, the cost in China is far more cheaper than in the US in medical care. In the US, insurance company covers the majority of the cost; In China, in most of the condition, every penny comes from their own pocket. For instance, one person spent $ 1000 in the US in hospital, but doctor said the treatment is not appropriate, he need a new method, and they will offer him this treatment immediately. I believe the patients would say ok, because the insurance will cover all the cost. In China, if the same thing happened, the patient would think this is a cheat. The doctor wants to get more money from me! I have already spent that much, ,, Maybe he would chose to accept, but you can imagine if the same things happen again to him, what will happen? The relationship between doctors and patients is very important to every one, not matter you are a patient or a doctor. In my opinion, the innovation of medical service in China is totally a failure. If we want to improve the medical care, we need to figure out how to build a reasonalble billing system.

Billing in Hospitals

Yesterday I wrote something about the difference between the doctors in China and the US. However, those are not significant compared to the billing differences. In China, being a doctor is almost the most dangerous job, even compared with corps cops. There were lots of news about doctors hurt by patients or their relatives. People abroad may not be aware why this happens. Doctors are the most polite persons in the country, they always like to help others, and others always love them back. This is what we usually think about, and this is the relationship that exists in the US.


Even Chinese themselves do not understand why they hate doctors so deeply. Yesterday I asked what is supposed to happen when doctors in China and the US switch their places? I guess you should have the same answer with as me, they will change themselves their attitudes. My point is: The reason why doctors are being hurt does not come from the doctors, nor the patients. The billing decides everything, simply speaking, money is the reason.

People in China always complain about how expensive and hard it is  to fix cure a disease in a hospital. Actually, the cost in China is far more much cheaper than in the US in medical care. In the US, insurance company covers the majority of the cost. In China, in most of the condition, every penny comes from their own pocket. For instance, one person spent $1000 in the US in hospital, but the doctor said the treatment is was not appropriate. He need to use a new method, and they will offered him this treatment immediately. I believe the patients would say ok, because the insurance will cover all the cost. In China, if the same thing happened, the patient would think this is a cheat ripoff.  The doctor wants to get more money from me! I have already spent that much. Maybe he would chose to accept, but you can imagine if the same things happen again to him, what would happen?


The relationship between doctors and patients is very important to everyone, no matter if you are a patient or a doctor. In my opinion, the innovation of medical service in China is a total failure. If we want to improve the medical care, we need to figure out how to build a reasonalble billing system.

 

That was an interesting essay. In Caanda, if your use the public hospitals, you have to wait perhaps a year for a hip replacement. If you have lots of money, you use the private system, and you get the job done in a few weeks. Money talks. Honesty and morality is myth in this field. You write well, but take care when to use the definite article. Take a look at the following link

Another thing, if you start your text in the past tense, best to keep it in the same tense.

This is kinda basic reason. Of course, people have various minds with doctors including bad manner, misunderstanding and sometimes wrong diagnosis, but these are not the basic ones. If the rules remain the same, nothing changes at all.

What you said is really shocking!! I consider Doctors as a type of heroes... but I have a doubt... Do chinese people hate them only because they ask big amounts of money?? or are there other reasons??
