A doctor who travels through two eras

When Minister Li heard this, he slapped his thigh fiercely:
"Okay, Lao Shen, Xiao Lin, your help is so timely and great. To be honest, I was lying in bed last night, tossing and turning, unable to sleep, and all I could think about was how to make money and get machines.

Now that Baoan County is willing to help us, my work will be easier. Don’t worry, I will risk my life to open an infectious disease hospital in every region within two years.”

The old lady couldn't help but get excited. It was true that now as long as it involved money issues, none of them would be simple little problems.

Shen Guoming continued:
"In addition, the new model I mentioned before is that Bao'an County is only a county after all. There may be several pharmaceutical companies in the county, but how much money can Bao'an County make? This is really uncertain.

Money can definitely be made, but the problem is that using this money to support various industries in the country is like sprinkling sesame seeds on a sesame cake, which will not make any splash at all.

Instead of dispersing it, we should concentrate our money and energy and invest all funds in health.

This is also taken from medicine and used in medicine, which is a perfect match for the profession. Minister Li, what do you think? "

Lin Sanqi understood as soon as he heard it, and thought that ginger is indeed spicy with age.

The godfather was afraid that after the first $3 million was handed over, it would attract the attention of major domestic departments and systems, and then they would come one after another to extort money.

Don't doubt it, this is entirely possible. You can look at the IOUs from decades later for details.

Therefore, Shen Guoming’s meaning is very clear, that is, the money earned by Bao’an County must be used exclusively for the development of medical and health services.

Minister Li's brain was not as quick as Lin Sanqi's, and he was a little slow to react:

"Wait, Old Shen, what you mean is that from now on, Bao'an County will be the money bag of our Ministry of Health, and the profits you earn can only be used to develop domestic medical and health services, including which ones?"

Secretary Zhao Yuling's eyes flickered, she already understood what Shen Guoming meant.

But secretaries all know that they have to keep their mouths shut, so they prick up their ears and do their job of taking notes of the meeting carefully.

Shen Guoming counted on his fingers and said:

“Generally speaking, anything that the Ministry of Health can manage is fine, such as building new hospitals, purchasing medical equipment, training medical personnel, and the cost of medical personnel studying and inspecting abroad.

Another important part is the teaching funds of major technical secondary medical schools across the country.

Now, except for a few colleges and universities affiliated to the Ministry of Health, most of them are under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Education, and a few are under the jurisdiction of the military, so these schools should still be funded by the government.

But if you want to build a new hospital, then Bao'an County can provide interest-free loans to help local governments build hospitals, including the necessary training costs, etc. For example, the current plan to build a new infectious disease hospital. "

Minister Li was puzzled: "Why not just pay for the construction of the hospital? Must we stick to the loan model?"

Shen Guoming laughed and waved his hand:

"Give the money to the local government, Minister Li. Can you guarantee that the money will be used to build a new hospital? And not diverted to other uses?
Even if the funds are not diverted for other purposes, the money for building the new hospital is paid by Bao'an County. The original plan was to build one hospital, but now the plan has been changed directly to 50 hospitals. Anyway, the money is not paid by themselves.

Minister Li, don't doubt the local tricks. No one will care about money that is not their own. Such a result will only cause huge waste and will also drag down the finances of our Bao'an County.

So when we lend money to local governments, we don’t charge you interest at most, but you have to pay back the principal. This will give local governments some concerns, and when planning hospitals, they will be realistic, rather than acting recklessly.”

Minister Li chuckled:
"Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to get back the money you loaned out? Since you mentioned the locals, they are very good at cheating."

Lin Sanqi also laughed:

"If the local government does this, the only ones who will suffer are the local government. You can cheat me once, but I will never give you a second chance.

As long as there is a place that has harmed us, we will refuse all support in the future and will never recover.

We must make this clear in advance, and there are limits on the number and amount of loans that can be made at one time, and it will not be up to the local authorities.”

Minister Li nodded, in a very happy mood.

If the "counterpart model" of Lin Sanqi and Shen Guoming is followed, the only one in the country that will get the benefits is the Ministry of Health.

This is absolutely a golden opportunity for the Ministry of Health. If Minister Li does not seize the opportunity, she will be the eternal sinner of the health system.

"Lao Shen, Xiao Lin, this model is great, I fully agree with it, haha.

Don't worry, our Ministry of Health will be the backer of Bao'an County in the future. As long as it is related to the Ministry, we will definitely give the green light and will never hold you back."

Shen Guoming reminded:
"Minister Li, the biggest problem here is that you have to convince your superiors to agree to this "matching model". After all, Bao'an County's annual profit is estimated to be more than 10 billion US dollars, and the leaders may not be willing to give all of it to the health system." The old lady narrowed her eyes and had already made a plan in her mind:
“I don’t dare to think about giving all 10 billion US dollars to the Ministry of Health, but my bottom line is that at least half of it should be kept in the Ministry of Health. I will complain to the leaders about this, and you should also write a report to the leaders. We will do this on two fronts.

But the most important thing right now is to do a good job in this national tuberculosis training. I will then formally invite leaders to come and visit, and we will let them see with their own eyes the importance and irreplaceability of this model. "

Lin Sanqi estimated that medical and health care and education investment have always been a heavy burden on the finances at all levels. If Bao'an County is willing to bear the national medical expenses, the higher-level leaders should not object.

Moreover, it is still unknown how much money Bao'an County can earn in a year.

After all, the pharmaceutical factory has only built the first phase, and there are still second and third phases to be built, and the turnover must be used to repay the loan (false loan), which means a huge amount of money.

So taking all these factors into consideration, Lin Sanqi felt that the "counterpart model" had a high chance of being passed.

As for whether the leader will change his mind in the future and whether it will cause jealousy from other departments, this is also easy to deal with.

Lin Sanqi controlled the finances of Bao'an County. He made the financial statements look uglier and showed very little book profit, and saved the money for future emergencies.

Of course, Lin Sanqi would not embezzle the money.

He only takes one tenth, and that is one tenth. He must keep his word, otherwise there will be endless troubles in the future.

This country will be in turmoil in the next ten years or so, and there will be many places where money needs to be spent. He has to help save some money, and Lin Sanqi is also worried about it.

The Hong Kong Lin family is invincible when it comes to the sand and gravel business. In the future, they can even directly enter the real estate industry and produce and sell their own products, which is the most profitable business.

Minister Li returned satisfied, but of course there was still a tough battle to fight in the capital.

Bao'an County Pharmaceutical Factory also began mass production of drugs step by step.

USA, Boston, 21 p.m.

Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard University, Infectious Diseases Division.

Professor Anthony and Professor Theodore are doing the final check.

Assistant Blake reported from the side:

"Professors, after coordinating with the hospital, we have now occupied the entire A5 building. We have prepared 10 wards with a total of 500 beds. All equipment and medical staff are in place.

In addition, we selected relevant medical personnel from the infectious disease department, respiratory department and other departments to re-establish a new "Tuberculosis Department", with Professor Theodore as the director of the department.

In addition, the renovation of the outpatient clinic has also been arranged, and we plan to open a total of 20 clinics and start work at the same time tomorrow.

At the same time, I have also notified all doctors that starting tomorrow each doctor will be allowed to book 50 appointments. If there are too many patients, we will give them three times the overtime pay.”

On average, outpatient doctors in the United States can only see four patients per hour.

This is because American medical tradition requires that each patient's appointment be booked for at least 15 minutes.

In addition to basic medical examinations and treatments, doctors also need to take the time to answer all of the patient's questions and provide scientific education.

Even just sitting with a patient and drinking coffee and chatting is considered working time.

Therefore, American doctors can only see about 8 patients in an 20-hour working day, including morning outpatient clinics and afternoon outpatient clinics.

Generally speaking, if an American can see 15 patients a day, he is considered a model worker. Most of the time, the number of patients a day is only in the single digit.

To put it nicely, doctors are careful in diagnosing patients; to put it bluntly, doctors are just lazy.

For example, when Professor Anthony was working in the outpatient clinic in Beijing, China, the number of outpatients he saw in a single day exceeded 150.

But at Massachusetts General Hospital in the United States, high-level specialist clinics like his do not exceed 5 visits a day.

Therefore, the efficiency of seeing a doctor in the United States is very low. It usually takes more than a week to make an appointment. If you are waiting for a specialist, you may have to wait for several months.

In order to become famous, Massachusetts General Hospital required 50 outpatients per day, which was definitely a break from the norm. (End of this chapter)
