Heavenly Dao Formula

Yanyue blinked her eyes, unable to recover for a while.

Did I hear something wrong?

He wants to build a medical system that can cover the entire Shenzhou, relying on the power of Jinxia City?

What is the purpose of doing this? After much deliberation, it may only be set up to treat more patients. But the real problem is not here - "Lord Xia, the number of patients who see patients does not depend on the number of clinics, but on the money in the pockets of the people."

Most diseases in the world are caused by poverty.

Poverty is by no means a problem that one or a group of doctors can solve.

Xia Fan unexpectedly showed an admiring smile, "You really are proficient in this. However, Jinxia's plan is not that simple. Since the Ministry of Health is an official department of the Bureau, of course it will not ask you to fight alone. Jinxia City Corresponding resources will be mobilized to reduce the impact of this problem. For example, the expenses of doctors and medicinal materials will no longer be borne by the patients, but will be distributed by the Ministry of Finance of the Affairs Bureau. In this way, the cost of patients can be greatly reduced , Doctors don’t have to worry about fluctuating income too much to support their families.”

This is also the biggest difference between the hospital system and the traditional clinics of that era. The latter is not uncommon in big cities. It sells and brews medicine at the same time as seeing a doctor. Usually, a respected old doctor is in charge, with more than a dozen apprentices under him, and some even bring their own medicine growers. All their operating costs are borne by the patients. In addition, they need to make a certain profit, otherwise they can only close down.

But the hospital system took a different path.

Most of its expenses are endorsed by government agencies. There is no mandatory profit requirement, and it can survive even with book losses. Patients only need to spend a small amount of money to enjoy complete medical services, and this pricing depends entirely on the official financial situation. At the same time, doctors and nurses don't have to care about the profit of the hospital. They only need to devote all their energy to treating patients.

Xia Fan's thinking is very simple, low discounts for minor illnesses, high discounts for serious illnesses, and the overall cost is controlled at about 30% to 40% of the original medical expenses. When more professionals are trained, further reductions can be made. However, free diagnosis cannot be made, otherwise residents will come to the hospital for medical treatment with slight discomfort, which will take up a lot of medical resources.

This system can be said to be very mature. It has experienced the long-term test of history, and it still firmly occupies a place in the era when private hospitals are springing up like mushrooms.

But to Yan Yue's ears, it was no less than a bolt from the blue.

The government subsidizes money to run clinics, and pays for medical treatment for the people out of their own pockets? How much money would this cost to do?

It would be a lot of money to set up a medical center covering Shenzhou, let alone provide low-cost diagnosis for millions of people! She also knows that as long as Jinxia decides to do this, the prestige of the people will definitely reach a new peak, and this medical system will be offered by Wanmin as if the Bodhisattva is reincarnated, but this is completely a waste of money! Princess Quang Binh's prestige is not low, there is absolutely no need for them to do this!

"This plan... can't be carried out for a long time." Yan Yue hesitated for a while before expressing her thoughts.

She could have said yes.

The benefits here can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye. Jinxia can gain a lot of prestige, why not as the host? What doctors value most is prestige, and the Yan family is no exception—with prestige, the people will pass it on by word of mouth and flock to it, so that the family can get enough benefits to continue.

As for whether Jinxia can persevere to the end, it has little to do with her.

However, she did not readily agree.

In a sense, Yanyue also wants to see such an ambitious medical plan become a reality. She is an alchemist of the Privy Council, but she is also a doctor. It is always a good thing to keep more people away from suffering from diseases.

"I know you are worried about the income, but this is not a matter of sitting on the mountain, but from a different perspective." Xia Fan did not elaborate on this aspect, because he knew that it was difficult for the other party to understand why he had to invest so much in it. expenditure. The level of medical treatment is a key factor in determining the average life expectancy, and the higher the life expectancy, the more time people can devote to production. Originally, the average life expectancy of ordinary residents in Shenzhou was only about thirty-five years old. Excluding the minor stage and childbearing stage, the golden period of work was almost only five or six years, which can be described as fleeting. If this situation is allowed to continue to happen, it will be the biggest waste of Jin Xia.

In contrast, the large investment in medical treatment is completely acceptable and cost-effective.

"In short, this matter will never be abandoned halfway, and it will not end hastily because of expenses." Xia Fan promised, "You don't have to worry about money, just arrange the medical system boldly according to the actual situation. If you do it well , maybe it will be spread all over the country in the future.”

Is it all over the country...

Yan Yue, who had been intimidated repeatedly, already felt a little numb.

Princess Ning Wanjun has been dealing with such a person for a long time?

I have to say that it is really difficult to persevere without a strong heart for a moment.

"In that case, I'm willing to give it a try." She nodded slowly.

"I'll make a general outline later, and then you can see what you want to add." Xia Fan stood up, smiled and extended his hand to her, "Welcome to the Bureau."

Walking out of the conference hall, Yanyue didn't feel the joy of winning a big victory.

She is now a member of the Bureau, and even a minister at the beginning. It is not difficult to intervene in Jinxia's high-level decision-making.

But she felt unexpectedly heavy on her shoulders.

...

"Thank you for your willingness to trust her."

After Yanyue left, Gan walked out from the inner room of the auditorium and came behind Xia Fan.

"You don't think she's from Qixing?" Xia Fan turned around and said. He appointed Yan Yue as the chief officer of the medical department, not only because of the other party's professional counterpart, but also because of Yu Yi's guarantee.

"She is Ning Qianshi's friend, and she also supported us in the battle of Wanjinglou." Qian replied earnestly, "As far as I know her, it is difficult for her to make a decision against her own will. In short, Miss Yan has a sincere and straightforward heart."

Xia Fan couldn't help laughing, "It's rare to hear you comment on others like that."

"That can't be helped." Qian shrugged pretending to be innocent, "There are not many people who can climb to the high position of alchemists. Our hands are covered with blood, but she is not like that. So her previous rejection of demons is From the bottom of my heart, now the concept of demons has changed, and it is also a real thought.”

This is true. Xia Fan picked up the teacup and took a sip. He could see the reluctance of the other party to answer, but even so, she did not deny that her view of demons had gone wrong.

"I'm not sure that she's not from the Seven Stars Privy Council, but as long as time passes, she will definitely see Jinxia's superiority to the Privy Council and come to our side. I have confidence in this," Gan said.

"Then let us wait and see." Xia Fan smiled, "By the way, have you taken a fancy to him? After learning about this, you actually came to me to intercede."

He grinned dryly, "If she likes me, it will be a good deal for me. In fact, there are many alchemists in the Seven Stars who hope the world can become a better place. They just haven't seen the scenery on Jinxia's side." Speaking of this, he His tone was a bit emotional, "I... just hope that when these people change their minds, there will be a place to accept them, so that they won't have nowhere to go."
