"It may be a bit exaggerated. But I think the number of seriously ill patients I have come into contact with is no less than that of the attending doctors in the top three hospitals. But the only thing I can do is to prescribe a bottle of painkillers for the patients. Many of them can't even afford the money."

Doctor Meng couldn't help but say, "Chairman, I noticed that you invested a lot of money in the surrounding villages. I think this is spending money wisely. You should do more of this instead of investing in a bottomless pit... You can't afford this bottom!"

"No, no, no, you misunderstood me. I certainly can't afford to be so low-key!"

Xu Shang did not feel that he could provide medical support for his fellow villagers, and he did not even have the confidence to provide support for his employees.

Because this is a project that can be increased or decreased, and can be increased or decreased.

No one wants to die. If a person does not want to die, ten thousand yuan, one million yuan, or even one hundred million yuan can cure the disease. Is it possible for Chairman Xiao Xu to spend one hundred million yuan to treat his employees?

He himself doesn't even have that much assets now.

"What I mean is that I want to build a basic medical insurance system! In other words... use the least amount of money to do the most!"

"Use the least amount of money to accomplish the greatest goal?"

Xu Shang then began to share with Dr. Meng some of the experiences and reform explorations of cutting-edge medical systems in later generations.

In fact, China’s current medical resources are largely misallocated and even wasted.

On the one hand, the decline of the primary medical system is visible to the naked eye; on the other hand, large hospitals are overcrowded, with long queues that stretch day and night, even giving scalpers a lot of room to survive.

But after careful consideration, I found that there are big problems.

Many of those who rush to see a specialist are just suffering from common headaches or fevers.

However, as far as diagnosis is concerned, experts do not have any unique advantages, because many diagnoses are now made using instruments. Once you have an appointment with a specialist, the specialist will ask you to get a check-up first.

If you really encounter a situation where the test results make it unclear what the disease is, then you don’t need to look for an expert, the expert will come by himself.

If it is just a common minor illness, the expert will look at the examination report and then prescribe some medicine for you...

This is certainly a waste of medical resources.

Xu Shang also understands that most people are afraid of encountering quack doctors. After all, in the medical field, quack doctors who pretend to know everything are the most harmful.

But most doctors have medical ethics. On the contrary, there are also unqualified experts. There is no need to deify experts, nor is there any need to be skeptical of ordinary doctors.

At the same time, in the vast countryside, until Xu Shang was reborn, there were still many people who were reluctant to seek medical treatment.

It’s not that they are really indifferent to their own bodies, but the medical expenses of tens or hundreds of yuan are still a burden for them. Many people choose to bear it. If they can bear it, they will bear it. If they can’t bear it, they will just give up.

But when faced with death, few people can feel relieved.

Often in the end, expenses of hundreds of thousands or even millions destroy the entire family, and may even leave them penniless.

Xu Shang did not intend to launch an attack on the intractable diseases of mankind, which could only be solved with the efforts of the whole country. Xu Shang's idea was very simple, that is, to cure minor diseases.

Make use of the primary medical system, strengthen the role of primary medical stations, and nip minor illnesses in the bud.

Although it cannot cure serious diseases, but——

Many serious illnesses often develop from minor illnesses!

"First, I decided to provide everyone with a physical examination service once a year... no, twice a year! According to each person's physical examination report, a personal medical record will be established, and at the same time, a community will be built to provide follow-up medical services to each patient!"

"That is to say, we must be aware of everyone's physical condition. For those minor illnesses and chronic diseases, we should cure them as soon as possible to prevent them from getting worse. If there is a tendency to turn into a serious illness, send the patient to a large hospital immediately! Doctor Meng, what do you think of my idea?"

Doctor Meng couldn't help but nodded.

Xu Shang's ideas actually coincided with his to some extent. Although he devoted himself to research, when he met many patients, they were often already at the point where there was no hope of recovery.

If we had encountered it earlier, so many tragedies would not have happened.

However, sometimes we really encounter it early, but we are still powerless...

——He found out the clues and persuaded the patients to go to big hospitals for treatment, but many patients... not just one or two, said they would go, but in fact they were indifferent because they were reluctant to spend the money.

Even if he tried to persuade them, the answer he got was "I'll die if I die, I can't ruin the family because of myself." However, when it really came to that, they sobbed to him with tears streaming down their faces -

"Dr. Meng, save me!"

"I don't want to die! I really don't want to die!"

"If I die...what will happen to my children..."

Sometimes, he would regret following in his father's footsteps and becoming a doctor. The sorrows and joys, pains and pleasures of this world always turned into tearful cries of despair in the end, and they would beg for him as if he were their lifeline...

He can't save.

He is not a god.

He is just an ordinary country doctor.

Chairman Xiao Xu continued, "I have been promoting martial arts culture recently. You should have noticed it! To treat the symptoms, we must treat the root cause. Many villagers have fundamental health problems. I hope to improve their physical fitness imperceptibly by promoting martial arts and exercising!"

"After all, no matter how good the treatment is, it can't compare to having a healthy body. When the body is healthy, all diseases will naturally disappear... Doctor Meng, are you interested in joining my plan?"
