The former dean has been disciplined!, Do two patients undergo 34 chest CRs every 5 months? Health Hospital Set Medical Insurance Examination | Health Hospital | Chest
Recently, Xie, former director of Xingjiang Township Health Center in Xingguo County, Jiangxi Province, received a disciplinary decision.
Previously, upon receiving clues regarding issues related to Xingjiang Township Health Center transferred by the audit department, the Discipline Inspection and Supervision Team of Xingguo County Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision stationed in the County Health Commission immediately conducted an initial review.
During the initial screening process, the disciplinary inspection and supervision team of the County Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision stationed at the County Health Commission and the County Health Commission retrieved the medical records of Xingjiang Township Health Center in the past two years, and a series of chest CR examination records caught the attention of the staff.
The system shows that between March 2021 and August 2021, two patients underwent continuous chest CR examinations, one 22 times and the other 12 times, for a total of 34 times.
"This radiation test is harmful to the human body, and under normal circumstances, it is not possible to conduct so many CR tests within six months." The staff decided to conduct an in-depth investigation.
Through investigation, the staff found that the two patients who received 34 chest CR examinations were extremely poor elderly people supported by the nursing home in the township, who were admitted for treatment due to lumbar disc herniation and gingivitis, respectively. Out of 34 inspections, 16 did not find any instrument inspection records, and the inspection fees were not refunded.
The staff found Dr. Chen, who was invoicing the patient.

"Can you explain why these two patients underwent 34 chest CR examinations within 5 months?" the staff asked.
"Well, this is necessary for the condition," said Chen.
"Do lumbar disc herniation and gingivitis require chest CR examination?" The staff asked, but Chen remained silent.
"As a doctor, don't you know that such frequent examinations are harmful to patients' bodies?"
Faced with a series of evidence, Chen confessed the truth. Originally, in order to increase income, the health center formed a "hidden rule" by falsely reporting medical treatment projects and fabricating hospitalization records to obtain medical insurance funds and assistance subsidy funds. During the investigation, the staff also found that the hospital had violated regulations and overcharged patients for examination fees. The above violations involve an amount of 122700 yuan.
After the facts were investigated, the County Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision issued a serious warning to the former director of the health center, Xie Moumou, within the party. Chen Moumou and others were given admonitions and talks, and the County Health Commission was instructed to deduct the performance of other doctors involved and conduct written inspections. Any fees collected in violation of regulations were confiscated.
