More importantly, we need to work hard for a long time. Medical anti-corruption requires the power of the "strong winds" of patients, medical skills, deans, anti-corruption storms, hospitals, corruption, industries, and healthcare
The anti-corruption storm in the healthcare system is still ongoing. The department head of Xiangya Third Hospital who was reported to have stopped treatment, and the former Party Secretary and Dean of Jieyang People's Hospital confessed in confession that they received a large amount of gold and cash from suppliers, and their white coats were dyed golden yellow... One hot search after another is thought-provoking, why did these white angels fall into the "black vortex" of corruption? This rings an alarm for the entire medical industry: we must not only completely cut off the chain of corrupt interests with the power of a strong wind, but also persist and work for a long time to truly promote a systematic transformation of the industry atmosphere.
Since ancient times, doctors have been life-saving practitioners who serve the world by hanging a teapot. The angel in white is the light at the end of the tunnel, dispelling the haze that envelops people's hearts and lighting up warmth and hope for patients. Highly skilled doctors are better able to bring patients back from the brink of death with ingenious techniques. However, in this anti-corruption storm in the medical industry, many hospital leaders, department heads, and renowned experts have fallen behind, which is heartbreaking.
According to media statistics, as of now, more than 160 hospital deans and secretaries have been publicly notified of being investigated nationwide. On August 10th alone, Wang Qun, former director of Qitaihe People's Hospital in Heilongjiang Province, and Liu Jianzhi, former party branch secretary and director of Jieyang Maternal and Child Health Hospital in Guangdong Province, were reported for suspected violations of discipline and law.
The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, rather than extending one's hand. High authority and excellent medical skills are never reasons or excuses for corruption. They should have gone further on the path of saving lives and helping the injured, eliminating the pain of more patients, overcoming more medical difficulties, and cultivating more outstanding new talents. However, in the face of the temptation of interests, these "high-level players" still lose themselves and fall into the abyss.
The serious problems exposed by anti-corruption in the medical field have made the outside world deeply realize that in the face of urgent expectations from the masses and high social attention, anti-corruption in the medical field cannot be slowed down or delayed. It is necessary to use a thunderous force and strike hard to achieve the goal of "autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves" and return the medical industry to a clean and upright environment as soon as possible.
To address the symptoms, we need to address the root cause, persist in it, fundamentally reverse corrupt practices, and provide a clean space for the medical industry. The urgent task is to completely break the ice of so-called industry "hidden rules", further clarify that the pharmaceutical industry must operate within the institutional framework of laws and regulations, and draw a clear "red line", "bottom line", and "high voltage line". Resolutely eliminate the monetization of position power, medical skills, and beyond the legal framework.
From the details of the reported case, it can be seen that some pharmaceutical companies have used methods such as conference sponsorship fees, expert lecture fees, and training fees to cover their bribery in a legal guise by organizing academic conferences; There are also some pharmaceutical companies with significantly high "public relations expenses" in their accounts. We must remain highly vigilant against these variant forms of bribery, and strictly strengthen the regulation of drug sales methods in pharmaceutical enterprises by weaving a solid network of systems and utilizing various advanced technological means, so that corrupt behavior in the medical industry can nowhere to hide.
Establishing a lasting and effective comprehensive supervision mechanism is indispensable. During this period, under the anti-corruption storm in the medical field, many medical institutions in various regions quickly launched self inspection and self correction, and released supervision and reporting phone numbers, with significant results. It can be seen that anti-corruption has formed a broad consensus in the medical system and received support from grassroots medical personnel. With a long-term perspective, we also need to work hard to promote the formation of a comprehensive supervision mechanism, so that the trend of not daring to corrupt, not being able to corrupt, and not wanting to corrupt will become prevalent.
The cultivation of medical ethics should not be ignored. Medical care is different from other industries, and once it is unethical, it will bring extremely serious consequences. We should take advantage of this anti-corruption storm, actively inherit and promote excellent medical ethics and style, adhere to service principles, advocate integrity and self-discipline, improve service quality, and truly put patients at heart. For medical institutions, it is necessary to actively explore ways to provide healthcare workers with a fair and dignified income, safeguard their basic rights, and truly proportional to their labor efforts.
Persist in anti-corruption, take multiple measures to form a joint force, promote the deepening of medical reform, completely cut off the gray interest chain attached to the industry, and ensure that medical resources are allocated more fairly and reasonably, so that ordinary people do not become unable to afford medicine or medical treatment due to corruption. This is the direction that the whole society needs to work together to achieve.
