Recently, a netizen on the "Responding to Concerns" section of the Chinese government website left a message suggesting "strengthening the construction and financial investment of grassroots hospitals". The National Health Commission responded to this. The netizen reported that, It is recommended to strengthen the investment in equipment and hardware as well as talent cultivation in grassroots medical institutions. Community hospitals and regional medical sub centers can be relied on to develop and expand grassroots hospitals into hospitals at the second or higher level. Currently, patients recognize temples rather than doctors, and if an intern is in a tertiary hospital, patients will also consider themselves experts. If a true expert is in a health service center, patients will also consider themselves as doctors who can only see minor issues I hope to strengthen financial investment and effectively improve the treatment of grassroots doctors. Nowadays, doctors are really struggling and tired, and their monthly income is not much after deducting personnel costs, equipment depreciation, consumables, rent, utilities, and personnel management fees. This is also the main reason why grassroots doctors cannot retain talents. Grassroots medical institutions are the capillaries of the health system, and the blockage of capillaries ultimately leads to problems in the entire system. In response, the National Health Commission stated that on February 23, 2023, the Central and State Offices jointly issued the "Opinions on Further Deepening Reform and Promoting the Healthy Development of Rural Medical and Health Systems" It is explicitly required to implement the main responsibilities of the city and county level party committees and governments in the construction of rural medical and health systems. The basic construction and equipment procurement of government run rural medical and health institutions shall be fully arranged by local governments according to the development and construction plan of grassroots medical and health institutions; Operating costs such as personnel and business expenses are compensated through service fees and government subsidies. Since 2020, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, the State Council, and relevant departments have issued documents such as the "14th Five Year Plan" to promote agricultural and rural modernization, the "Opinions on Promoting Urbanization Construction with County Towns as an Important Carrier", the "Implementation Plan for Rural Construction Action", the "14th Five Year Plan" for Medical and Health Service System, and the "Opinions on Further Deepening Reform to Promote the Healthy Development of Rural Medical and Health System", Propose to build 1-2 central township health centers in counties with large permanent population, large regional area, and insufficient service coverage of county-level hospitals based on changes in rural morphology, with a focus on improving medical service capabilities to basically meet the service level of county-level hospitals and meet the medical needs of remote township residents.
