People's Daily Bai Jianfeng: foreigners embrace acupuncture, people have abandoned such as spacious

    Low prices, the lack of enthusiasm for the use of doctors, leading to the gradual decline of domestic acupuncture

    When the acupuncture copper people to the world, acupuncture and moxibustion technology should also be the mainstream of domestic medical recognition and acceptance

    A Chinese doctor went to a famous hospital in the United States to study, occasionally participated in a surgeon's academic salon. What shocked him was that the theme of the salon was how to use acupuncture to relieve pain after surgery. And such discussions are extremely rare in Chinese hospitals.
    Not long ago, China presented to the World Health Organization a pair of acupuncture and copper sculpture, marking the acupuncture has become a "national business card."
    Acupuncture is a treasure of Chinese medicine, and now it is "wall flowers outside the fragrance". It is reported that the United States in a variety of disease treatment guidelines recommend the use of acupuncture, and even the general hospital emergency also introduced acupuncture. Practice has proved that acupuncture can reduce the dependence of patients with addictive analgesic drugs, reducing the use of excessive use of analgesic death. Chinese acupuncture with its irreplaceable role, won the Western mainstream medical recognition.
    However, when the foreigners embraced their arms and arms, the Chinese people are abandoned, such as spacious. In most Western hospitals, doctors use a lot of analgesic drugs, will not consider acupuncture and pain. Even in the hospital, acupuncture is also regarded as "marginal discipline", brain drain, yellow and yellow. The fundamental reason is that acupuncture low price, the lack of enthusiasm for the use of doctors. To Beijing top three hospitals, for example, to do a price of only 4 yuan acupuncture, this money is not enough to buy the needle, let alone pay the cost of labor. In order to make up for losses, doctors acupuncture at the same time, often give patients "tying" electro-acupuncture, physical therapy and other items, thus changing the acupuncture charges. Even so, the charges will not exceed 100 yuan.
    In the United States, whether doctors use acupuncture, the main consideration can benefit patients, because the doctor's income has nothing to do with the economic benefits. In China, whether doctors use acupuncture, the main consideration is profitable, because the doctor's income and economic benefits are closely related. In the unreasonable price system, the fate of acupuncture increasingly declining.
    So, how can we let the acupuncture revive the glory?
    First, improve the price of acupuncture, so that the technical value is fully reflected and respected. Acupuncture is the essence of Chinese medicine, is a high technological content of the "green therapy", with low cost, high efficiency characteristics, should be reasonable pricing. If acupuncture doctors can rely on technology to make money, learn acupuncture, acupuncture will be more and more people, acupuncture will not decline. If the acupuncture becomes a sale, the doctor will be shelved.
    Second, the reform of health insurance payment system, more diseases into the "package payment." At present, China's health insurance payment method is mainly paid by the project. For example, to do an appendicitis surgery, health insurance needs to pay for surgery, medicine, materials, anesthesia, nursing and so on. Doctors do more projects, the greater the income, which is equivalent to disguise encourage doctors "only choose expensive, do not vote on the". Although acupuncture can reduce the pain of patients after surgery to reduce the side effects caused by analgesic drugs, but because the charges are too low, unprofitable, doctors prefer to choose drug analgesia. The so-called "packaged pay" is to pay in accordance with the disease, no longer calculate the individual costs. For example, to do an appendicitis surgery, health insurance department unified payment of 5,000 yuan, the hospital overdue pays, the balance owned. Doctors in order to profit, less lose money, will find ways to reduce consumption, cost savings. Can use acupuncture to solve the pain problem, it will not use expensive analgesics; can use low-level antibiotics, will not use advanced antibiotics. This is like a restaurant selling Kubo chicken, the boss is not in accordance with the price of chicken, cucumber, peanuts, respectively, but in accordance with a dish to charge. In order to reduce costs, the chef has a certain degree of autonomy in choosing ingredients. For example, when the cost of cucumber is high, the chef can use potatoes, green peppers instead of cucumbers, but the bottom line can not deviate from the recipe, in particular, can not be without chicken, otherwise the consumer will not admit it. This shows that the health insurance payment system can determine the fate of a technology.
    General Secretary Xi Jinping at the China to the WHO presented acupuncture and copper sculpture ceremony, pointed out that to inherit good, good development, the use of traditional medicine, open and inclusive attitude to promote traditional medicine and modern medicine better integration. China is the hometown of acupuncture, acupuncture and moxibustion to the world, acupuncture and moxibustion technology should also be the mainstream of domestic medical recognition and acceptance, to promote greater health and make greater contributions. Willing to acupuncture will always be "alive" Chinese stunt, do not become the history of the museum "antiques."
