Let you be a great man, not a scumbag
Chapter 923 How many situations are there like this
Jiang Cheng briefly described the situation of the middle-aged man he had just met, and then asked, "Dean Jiang, do you know how many families like his are there in your hospital?"
Jiang Long didn't know why Jiang Cheng suddenly asked this question.
After all, he didn't know Jiang Cheng's specific identity.
Shen Lang just told him that the other party was the boss of Xingchen.
Their status is at least similar to that of the Wang family and the Xu family.
He just looked at Shen Lang with some embarrassment.
Shen Lang said, "Uncle Jiang, don't worry, just tell me the truth. It's not a bad thing, it's a good thing. How can I cheat you?"
After Shen Lang finished saying this, Jiang Long's expression still didn't look relaxed at all.
Jiang Long hesitated for a moment before slowly saying, "Mr. Shen, Mr. Jiang, there are actually many families with situations like what you just described. The hospital encounters similar situations almost every day. Some families cannot afford the high medical expenses due to financial reasons, and finally have to give up treatment or choose other relatively cheap but less effective treatment options."
Hearing this, the brows of those present subconsciously frowned.
Jiang Long continued, "Even for families with relatively good financial conditions, long-term treatment is undoubtedly a heavy burden for them. Many families have fallen into poverty and even lost hope in life."
Shen Lang couldn't help but ask, "Does your hospital provide any help or support to these families?"
For a rich second-generation like him, he has never worried about or even thought about such things.
Normally, if he met someone praying while sick, in order to make his conscience feel at ease, he would directly give a few hundred dollars to support him, just like he did just now.
But he never thought of doing the same thing as Jiang Cheng.
Jiang Long shook his head helplessly: "Of course our hospital wants to help them, but our ability is limited, so we can only do our best. For some special cases, we will also organize some fundraising activities, but the funds raised are far from enough to solve all the problems."
"There are some things I can't say too much about. There is no difference between a hospital and a company. It's just that the nature of the business is different. Some places will sell you imported products for profit."
Jiang Long paused after he finished speaking, as if thinking about how to organize his words.
"Everyone knows that for the same efficacy, the profit margin of imported products is naturally lower than that of domestic products, so the commission is naturally higher if the order is placed. That's why some salesmen like to prescribe imported products so that people who buy the products will spend more money."
"However, it depends on the situation. In some special cases, imported products are indeed better than domestic ones. In some cases, there is no difference. It depends on whether the person selling you the product has a good or bad conscience."
Jiang Cheng certainly knew what Jiang Long meant.
Domestically produced medicines are usually more affordable, costing only a few dollars or a dozen dollars per bottle.
However, imported drugs are much more expensive, possibly costing dozens or even hundreds of yuan per bottle.
If it is only used occasionally, it may be affordable for the average family.
But if you need to rely on this drug for a long time to maintain your health, the cost becomes very high.
Jiang Long then said: "Many diseases are delayed, just like his situation. This is indeed a helpless phenomenon. These advanced testing instruments are worth tens of millions or even millions of dollars. And with the rapid advancement of technology, their accuracy is also continuously improving."
"After we replace the machines, we can't throw away the old ones, so we will transport them to the next level of towns for continued use. In this way, the old ones will be eliminated one level at a time. Those backward small mountain villages and places with low business power will spend money to buy these second-hand testing instruments. Therefore, the testing machines in those places may be several years ago or even more than ten years ago. Sometimes there is no way to prevent misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis."
Although Jiang Long's answer was still a little unclear, Jiang Cheng could understand it.
After all, anyone would feel nervous and uneasy if they were suddenly asked to answer such questions.
People within the system tend to speak cautiously and like to practice Tai Chi.
Regarding the phenomenon mentioned by Jiang Long, Jiang Cheng believes that this is an inevitable result of the development of the market economy.
Compared with other countries, China has done quite well in medical reimbursement and there is almost nothing to criticize.
Jiang Cheng waved his hand and said straight to the point: "President Jiang, don't worry. I'm not here to investigate today, let alone discuss these operating phenomena with you. I just want to know how many families like his are there in your hospital, and how many children are forced to give up treatment because they have no money? Give me a list?"
Seeing Jiang Cheng say this, Jiang Long secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"This situation is a bit complicated. Most of the children we see every day in our hospital are suffering from minor illnesses, such as colds, fevers, allergic skin problems, and dental problems. These are all minor problems."
Jiang Long took a breath and continued, "However, in recent years, the number of patients in the hematology department or cancer department has increased significantly, and the beds are often tight. There are many cases like this, but most of them are from other places with poor economic conditions. After hearing the price, they leave directly. But it is not ruled out that these people go to other places for treatment, so it is difficult to say the specific data, and we need to ask someone to do some statistics."
As Jiang Long said, the situation is indeed very complicated.
If we really want to count them one by one in detail, I'm afraid it will be difficult to complete it today.
However, the system requirements clearly stipulate that the task must be completed within today.
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Cheng continued: "Then narrow the scope a little bit, and first give me a list of patients who have recently received treatment in your hospital but stopped treatment midway due to funding issues.
Jiang Long nodded slightly: "This is easy. We can sort it out for you quickly, because our hospital will make a return call to these patients every once in a while to keep an eye on their condition at any time."
"Then I'll have to trouble Dean Jiang to take care of it."
"You're too polite." After saying that, Jiang Long turned and walked to the desk in the office, picked up the phone on the table, and dialed the number without hesitation.
After giving some instructions, he returned to the sofa in front of the guest table and sat down.
Just as he sat down, Jiang Long seemed to suddenly remember something, with a slightly puzzled look in his eyes, and asked uncertainly: "Director Jiang, why do you want these lists?"
