I agree with what Zhu Chen, vice chairman of the National People's Congress, said recently: Integrate health into all policies! This is our new understanding of human health in China, and it will also show the great promotion of health policy to health. In his view, China needs to establish a resource-saving, environment-friendly and healthy development model. I'm going to attend a health promotion training class in Fujian province soon, so I need to think about it.
First, health is the strongest demand and pursuit of the people. Domestic surveys show that people's happiness index is most closely related to health, and several years' surveys show that it has the same status as money. We may exaggerate the influence of money on happiness index, but our concern for health is real. China * * * production party and China government take people's interests as the highest interests, so they should attach great importance to people's health interests as never before. Because, in the past, we put people's pursuit of money first, and now it's time to put people's health interests on the pursuit of the highest interests. If you don't do this, it is against the fundamental interests of the people;
Second, health includes physical health and mental health. The content of health goals develops with the development of society. In the past, we attached great importance to physical health, which was related to our attaching great importance to economic development. Now we need to attach great importance to mental health, at least at the same level as physical health, but we ignore mental health very much, which requires us to strengthen it vigorously. Because mental health is more closely related to people's happiness index and life satisfaction;
Third, health is the main responsibility of all departments in the whole society. We must get out of a serious misunderstanding: health is a matter for hospitals and health bureaus. Research shows that the relationship between a person's life span and medical services is only about 15%. We spend a lot of resources on 65,438+05%, but seldom on the allocation of 85% health-related factors. This distribution of health resources is wrong and inefficient. What the government needs to do is to increase and adjust the allocation of health resources. It can be said that health is closely related to all government departments. Health education in the education sector is very important for the formation of healthy habits. The tax department can promote health by increasing the tax on alcohol and tobacco. Strengthening environmental protection by environmental protection departments can greatly reduce the incidence of some diseases. Strengthening the overall fitness management of sports departments can promote health. More positive energy in the cultural sector can promote mental health. The planning department can increase fitness places in the community and improve the health level.
Fourth, health is an important industry in society and needs marketization. In America, the biggest industry is health. What is the supporting industry information industry after the low tide of China's real estate development? Automobile industry? Cultural industry? Service industry? I think it's still a health industry. The main reason: health has become people's first pursuit, and the development of an industry must be guided by market demand. Health is an industry with long industrial chain, wide influence and clear service. Including health education industry (such as medical university), medical equipment industry, medicine industry, medical care industry, medical service industry, health information industry (such as health magazines and health websites), health insurance industry, sports and fitness industry, health preservation industry, psychological counseling industry, etc. With the increasing investment of society, government and people in health, it can effectively support the long-term development of health industry and promote the development of national economy;
Fifth, health is the mechanism innovation of healthy development. To ensure the scientific development of the health industry, the key is reform, and the core is mechanism innovation. It is necessary to incorporate health promotion into the basic national policy, establish more scientific and reasonable health development goals, establish the responsibility of health promotion of all social departments, establish and improve the system of laws and regulations related to health undertakings, and formulate policies related to health industry such as market access, industrial policies, tax policies, investment and financing, scientific research projects, evaluation and evaluation, so as to establish a big health pattern.
