Everywhere to strengthen the prevention and control of financial security, resolutely curb the spread of the epidemic. For the medical expenses incurred by the diagnosed patients, the government is required to pay the basic medical insurance, major disease insurance and medical assistance after the part borne by the individual, the government will be subsidized. Funds will be advanced by local finances, and the central government will subsidize 60% of the actual expenditure. For personnel who have direct contact with cases to be investigated and confirmed, diagnosis, treatment, care, hospital infection control, case specimen collection and pathogen testing, the central government will subsidize them at 300 yuan per person per day. For other medical personnel and epidemic prevention personnel, the central fiscal authorities will provide subsidies at the rate of 200 yuan per person per day.
The central medical and health institutions are under local management. The central financial subsidies are distributed by the localities. Medical and health institutions to carry out epidemic prevention and control work required protection, diagnosis and treatment of special equipment and rapid diagnostic reagents procurement, by the local financial arrangements, the central financial subsidies according to the situation. The central medical and health institutions are under local management. The central financial subsidy funds are uniformly distributed by localities. The cost of nucleic acid testing varies from region to region and from hospital to hospital. Nucleic acid testing should be performed at fever clinics, and is a free program for patients with fever and those with epidemiological histories, that is, those who test positive for the new coronavirus, or those who are in infected areas.
Charges for nucleic acid testing vary by level of hospital. Currently the nucleic acid test uses PCR fluorescence method. Most primary hospitals do not have such laboratory facilities because the number of laboratories and the amount of specimens collected varies from district to district, and the results of nucleic acid tests also vary according to the number of samples collected and the time of submission. Normalizing nucleic acids would impose significant costs on the population, Medicare, and the Ministry of Finance. The use of nucleic acid finance means that Medicare and Medicaid subsidies for all walks of life will be under greater pressure in the future. Let's hope the world is free of epidemics and normalcy returns soon. ?
