    Reform of public hospitals in urgent need of a "public welfare scale" 
 
    City public hospital is the main body of our country medical service, the hospital can return to public property, relates to the success or failure of the reform. The state council general office recently issued by the "about city public hospital comprehensive reform pilot guidance" is put forward, urban public hospitals establish non-profit oriented evaluation mechanism. This is helpful to find out what are the current public hospital public welfare short board and how to make up for, to carry out the effect to the public. 
 
    For a long time, adhere to the public welfare is always one of the basic direction of reform of public hospitals, but has not been formed to measure the scale of commonweal. Experts and the industry in the "as long as is the public medical institutions with public welfare", "as long as the executive government pricing for the average patient has insisted on the public welfare service" "as long as to provide basic public health services with public welfare attribute" point of debate. These differences to a certain extent, led to public hospital public welfare reform, lack of standards and goals, public welfare of public hospitals are not determined to maintain, profit-seeking mechanism remains entrenched, reform and the desire to produce. 
 
    The core of the reform of public hospitals is to return to public welfare, but the current inefficient allocation system reform lags behind, the compensation mechanism of factors hindering the deepening of the reform is still there. In medicine for the medical mechanism, the hospital only sell drugs and sell more expensive medicine, do more inspection, multi-purpose consumables to earn more money, directly form the masses dissatisfied "expensive" phenomenon. Earn most of its revenue from patients, is a public hospital although the name of "public", but did not reflect public life. 
 
    Deepen the reform of public hospitals, public hospitals in urgent need of a "public welfare scale". Put forward the reform, the family planning administrative department of public health to develop public hospital performance evaluation index system of evaluation indicators should be more focus on restoring the function of the large hospital center of diagnosis and treatment of incurable diseases, prevent its sprawl "siphon" small hospital resources; Should guide the large hospital pay attention to cost control, easing the burden on patients, put an end to sell more to the economic interests of the medicine, excessive examination; Should guide the large hospital, focused more on patient-centered improve patient treatment satisfaction, etc. These specific indicators and direction, no doubt, to break the ills affecting the reform of public hospital public welfare for a long time. 
 
    It should be noted that the "public welfare scale" was used to ealuate public hospital public welfare and guide the development of public hospital, also need to reform the current running mechanism is generally used to public hospitals. On the one hand, change in medicine medical phenomenon, lightens the burden of patients go to a doctor. On the other hand to reduce the costs of medicines, medical consumables at the same time, reasonable adjustment of medical service prices, let the medical staff working for reasonable income. In the reform, the government investment should focus on the implementation of the responsibility, for the most part to radically change the public hospital operating costs from the market to earn.
