Chapter 4 Diagnosed with Autism
Li Jing hurriedly handed over the tissues, patted the old man's shoulders, and comforted the old man softly: "Grandma, crying too much hurts your body, for Jiejie, you have to take care of yourself."

Liang Maoming said anxiously: "Doctor, we are from Liangwan Village, Jizi Town, Yi County. Liangwan Village is one of the poor villages in Yi County. I am the village chief, and my name is Liang Maoming. Jiejie's family is a poor household, and Jiejie My grandfather is not in good health and cannot walk long distances, so I brought my aunt and Jiejie to see a doctor. The child is only five years old and is the couple’s only grandson. If there is anything wrong with the child, please ask the doctor to cure the child!"

Hearing this, all the medical staff felt uncomfortable.

Director Wang turned to look at Li Jing, "Tell me what you think."

Li Jing thought: "Consider autism in children."

"Children's autism? What kind of disease is this?" Liang Maoming was puzzled and asked immediately.

Li Jing pursed her lips, and said with some difficulty: "It's what is often called autism."

Director Wang nodded and added: "Of course, the diagnosis must be confirmed through a series of electroencephalogram examinations, brain CT, brain MRI, etc. Xiao Zhong, please help with the transfer procedures."

"Okay." Xiao Zhong accepted the task and returned to the nurse's office.

Director Liu said: "Grandma Liang, Dr. Zhao has already prescribed the medicine list for treating diarrhea. You will go to the pharmacy later to pick up the medicine and just take it according to the doctor's instructions. Autism needs to be transferred to the Department of Psychosomatic Medicine for treatment. Don't worry. , our hospital will do its best to treat Jiejie, and I believe Jiejie will get better slowly."

"Then...will it cost a lot of money? The village chief paid for the inspection just now. I...my family really has no money, what should I do?" Grandma Liang said, I cried anxiously again.

Liang Maoming comforted him: "Auntie, just listen to the doctor and cooperate with him. As for the money, Murakami will find a way to get it together and we can always solve the urgent need."

Grandma Liang nodded with tears in her eyes.

Li Jing felt sour and bitter. Director Wang patted her on the shoulder and told her that in addition to being emotional, she should also maintain the rationality and calmness of a doctor.

……

Through a comprehensive diagnosis using the Autism Behavior Scale, Developmental Assessment and Intelligence Test Scales, and various laboratory examination results, Jiejie was diagnosed with more severe autism.

Because Jiejie was the first patient Li Jing came into contact with after joining Renhe Hospital, Director Wang asked Li Jing to be Jiejie's attending doctor.

Jie Jie was placed in the inpatient department of the Department of Psychosomatic Medicine. In view of Jie Jie's original family situation, Li Jing was particularly concerned about Jie Jie and Grandma Liang.

Early in the morning, after the morning meeting, Li Jing knocked on the door of the director's office with a document.

"Director Wang, Jiejie's family is poor. Even if medical insurance can reimburse part of the expenses, it will be even worse for their family, which has lost its labor force and has no support for its young and old. Therefore, I wrote a report and wanted to report to the hospital on behalf of Jiejie. Apply for medical expense relief.”

Li Jing explained her intention and handed the documents to Director Wang.

Director Wang read it carefully and nodded frequently, "Li Jing, you are attentive. Our Renhe Hospital has implemented various poverty alleviation policies and systems since the year before last, providing services to registered poor households, families with minimum living allowances, extremely poor people, and marginalized families with minimum living allowances. Measures such as exempting patients from registration fees and examination fees, and halving expert outpatient examination fees and large equipment inspection fees are to prevent poor patients from becoming poor or returning to poverty due to illness, thereby successfully achieving targeted poverty alleviation."

After speaking, Director Wang picked up the pen and signed "Agree" and "Wang Ling" at the bottom of the report, then handed it to Li Jing and said with a smile: "Leave it to the hospital office."
