Features that distinguish disease risk from other risks include:
1. Unpredictability: The occurrence of diseases is often unpredictable, and even if preventive measures are taken, the risk of illness cannot be completely avoided.
2. Infectious: Some diseases are contagious and can be transmitted to others through contact and air transmission.
3. Long-term impact: Some diseases may have a long-term impact on patients' health and quality of life, and may even lead to disability or death.
4. Social impact: Some diseases may have a negative impact on society, such as the increase of medical expenses and the decrease of labor force.
5. Individual differences: Different people's physical conditions and living habits will affect their risk of illness, so it is necessary to formulate corresponding preventive measures according to individual conditions.
What is the difference between disease risk and medical cost risk?
The difference between disease risk and medical expense risk is that the disease risk comes entirely from the patient, that is, the risk of the patient's own disease is the disease risk, that is, it has nothing to do with the medical staff.
Secondly, the risk of medical expenses is related to medical personnel. The risks and expenses generated by medical personnel's operation are called medical expense risks, which is the difference between them.
In other words, the reference object is completely different from Tan Bi. The reference object of disease risk is patients, and the reference object of medical risk cost is medical personnel, medical process and medical measures.
In other words, the risk of the disease to the patient is beyond the responsibility of the medical staff, and only the risk expenses arising in the medical process can be borne by the medical staff.
