In recent years, the four big families of the Putian system has become a big buzzword in the medical industry. These four families are Chen's family, Zheng's family, Lin's family and Huang's family. They control most of the market share of the Putian medical industry, involving hospitals, pharmacies, medical equipment and other areas. However, behind the wealth and power of these families lie many dark secrets.
Family background
The four families are all local natives of Putian, whose ancestors were all doctors or pharmacy owners. After the reform and opening up, they seized the opportunity of the medical market and began to expand. Their business model basically involves attracting patients with low prices and then reaping profits by charging high fees for tests and treatments.
Operation steps
Step 1: Attract patients with low prices
Putian hospitals are characterized by low prices, and they usually brand themselves as "the lowest-priced hospitals in the country" to attract a large number of patients. These patients are often residents of impoverished areas or uninformed outsiders. The arrival of these patients brings them a huge amount of traffic.
Step 2: High examination and treatment costs
Once the patients enter the hospital, they will be sold various examination and treatment programs. The prices of these programs are usually two to three times or more than those of other hospitals. And while these tests and treatment programs are often unnecessary, doctors will go to great lengths to convince patients that they are necessary.
Step 3: Profit profiteering
In this way, Putian hospitals make very high profits, which can be hundreds of times higher. These profits are mainly used for expanding medical empire, buying real estate, stocks and other investments. At the same time, they also control the local government and media through various means to protect their interests.
Shady secrets exposed
The shady secrets of the four Putian families have been exposed in recent years. Their hospitals are plagued with problems such as medical malpractice, false advertising and illegal practice of medicine. These problems not only seriously affect the health of patients, but also damage the image of the entire medical industry. At the same time, their profiteering has also aroused widespread social concern and criticism.
Ending
The case of the four big families of the Putian system reveals the dark secrets of the medical industry. In this industry, commercial interests often override patients' health. We need to strengthen regulation and establish a sound medical system so that patients can receive better treatment and protection. At the same time, we need to call on more people to pay attention to the development of the healthcare industry and **** with the process of promoting healthcare reform.
