The details are as follows:
Early June last year, the National Health and Family Planning Commission issued the National Health and Family Planning Commission on the control of public hospitals to control the scale of over-expansion of the urgent notice No. 32, strict control of the scale of public hospitals to expand too quickly. The document pointed out that in recent years, China's public hospitals are expanding too rapidly, some hospital units are too large, there is the pursuit of bed size, the race to buy large equipment, ignoring the internal management of hospitals and mechanisms for the construction of the problem of sloppy development, raising the unreasonable growth of medical costs, squeezing the development of grassroots medical and health care institutions and nonpublic hospitals, and is not conducive to hospitals to improve the quality of service and management level.
The document requires, in order to further control the scale of public hospitals to expand too quickly, public hospitals are prohibited from raising debt to build new hospitals or debt to purchase new large medical equipment.
The relevant personage of the Health Planning Commission explained that financial leasing refers to the lessor of the lessee selected leasing object, the purchase for the purpose of financing, in order to collect the rent as a condition of the leasing object in the medium and long term leased to the lessee to use. The Ministry of Commerce, the China Banking Regulatory Commission, the State Administration of Taxation and other departments have relevant qualification requirements for organizations carrying out financial leasing business.
The lessor of a financial lease makes a profit by charging fixed interest. The essence of the financial leasing business for medical institutions is a kind of loan financing behavior. The relevant national policies and documents clearly require that public medical institutions should not take out loans for the purchase of medical equipment.
