Contradiction 1: The melon eating masses think that seeing a doctor is consumption, while in fact it is not. This perception of the melon eating masses, will be God, no, the Jade Emperor's attitude towards doctors, the medical industry as a service industry, the medical practitioners as a waiter, I spent the money you have to smile to welcome the best, I am angry you have to tolerate, pumping you a couple of times is not much. In fact, seeing a doctor in any country is not a consumer, or few people can afford it. In particular, in China, the nature of the medical industry is quite complex, is with a strong welfare nature of the state behavior, medical practitioners are not a waiter.
Contradiction 2: The eating public believes that doctors are moral models, apricot forest sage. This perception has been transformed into a demand. For doctors, the melon eaters have the following key words, wonderful hands, healer, white angel, medicine to cure the disease and so on. However, doctors are not moral models, but an ordinary profession, just like any other profession, to support their families. The melon eating masses hold doctors up as god-like positions, if doctors make ordinary people's behavior, the melon eating masses will be uncomfortable, think I have taken you as a god, why do you take yourself as an ordinary person, which inadvertently formed a moral abduction. This is not fatal, fatal is that the melon eating masses can not accept the operation failed, can not see the disease, death, and this is in the medical treatment is perfectly normal, the doctor is not a god. The melon people do not care about this, think that the medicine should be able to cure the disease, so they like to say "please doctor, my life is in your hands", meaning that you can not save the life of a person is a murderer, the doctor heard how to feel? Of course, most patients are reasonable and will not go to extremes even if they have the above perceptions, but even a small percentage will muddy the water. A very small minority of medical practitioners also have problems of one sort or another.
Contradiction #3: The extreme imbalance of medical resources. This problem seems to be insoluble, good hospitals, good doctors, good medical equipment are concentrated in big cities, education, capital construction, culture, too, highly concentrated, which is closely related to China's multi-level administrative system, education, capital construction, culture, health care, these factors are attracted to each other and each other, the result is that all kinds of resources and the size of the city and the administrative level is proportional to each other.
Contradiction 4: Insufficient match between medical resources and demand. China has too many people, the natural medical demand is more, aging and aggravate this demand, but due to complex reasons, medical resources, including hospitals, medical equipment, beds, doctors, etc. can not be provided in sufficient quantities, this is not just the state to increase investment in such a simple thing, involving too many things, there is a lack of money, but also management, publicity, patient awareness, etc., and extreme imbalance of medical resources and The extreme imbalance in healthcare resources exacerbates this contradiction. Data is the most intuitive. Peking Union Medical College (PUMC) Hospital has 2.26 million patients a year, with 4,000 employees. The Mayo Clinic in the United States has a yearly volume of 1.16 million consultations with 61,100 employees, which is equivalent to saying that Peking Union Medical College has accomplished two times the volume of consultations of Mayo Clinic with 1/12 of the number of staffs of Mayo Clinic, and the per capita load of Peking Union Medical College's staffs is 24 times that of Mayo's. The outpatient fee of Mayo Clinic is about 500 dollars. Mayo outpatient fees are about $500, Concordia registration fees are usually about $50.
Contradiction 5: Health care workers have become the center of the vortex so many contradictions intertwined, who is most injured? Medical workers, this injury is not only the problem of high pressure, but also directly facing the patient's emotional outburst. Patients can not see the leadership, also can not recognize so deep, can only vent their dissatisfaction to the medical workers. The authorities can only put all kinds of contradictions to the hospital, in fact, is pressured to the medical workers. In the end, the contradiction can only be in a large area of contact between the two groups, medical workers vs. patients (as well as family members), medical workers, then the most injured.
Every industry is not easy, every social role has its difficulties, medical workers and patients have to stand in each other's position as far as possible to sympathize with understanding.
