The duty of the Office of the National Working Committee on Ageing is to handle the matters decided by the National Working Committee on Ageing, study and put forward the principles, policies and plans for the development of the National Working Committee on Ageing, formulate implementation measures, supervise and inspect the implementation of the matters decided by the National Working Committee on Ageing in relevant departments and localities, and make a comprehensive report. Responsible for liaison and coordination among member units, carry out investigation and study, collect and sort out information related to aging work, sum up and popularize advanced experience, and undertake other tasks assigned by the National Working Committee on Ageing. In addition, state administration of traditional chinese medicine is managed by the National Health and Wellness Committee. No longer retain the National Health and Family Planning Commission. No longer set up a leading group office for deepening the reform of medical and health system in the State Council. State Councilor Wang Yong said that the above adjustments were made because "in order to promote the implementation of the healthy China strategy, establish the concept of great health and great health, and change the treatment-centered to people's health-centered." The institutional reform in the State Council also indicates that the combination of medical care and nursing will be accelerated.
It is understood that the main duties of the National Health and Wellness Committee are to formulate national health policies, coordinate and promote the deepening of the reform of the medical and health system, organize the formulation of the national essential drug system, supervise and manage public health, medical services and health emergencies, be responsible for family planning management and services, and formulate policies and measures to deal with the aging population and the combination of medical care and nursing. At present, domestic pension services and medical services are separated, and the situation of "no medical care for the aged" in pension institutions and "no medical care for the aged" in medical institutions often makes it difficult for the elderly to get enough life care and corresponding medical care services at the same time. "With the growth of age and the decline of physical function, the incidence of diseases in the elderly increases, the demand for outpatient and inpatient services is high, and more medical expenses are spent." Experts interviewed by reporters said. It has become the general trend to develop the combination of medical care and nursing care. The Thirteenth Five-year Plan for the Development of Civil Affairs issued by the Ministry of Civil Affairs in June, 20 16 puts forward that it is necessary to focus on the development of the combination of medical care and nursing care. The plan points out that the layout of medical and health care resources and old-age care services should be coordinated, and old-age care institutions should be supported to carry out medical services. Focus on the development of old-age care institutions that combine medical care with nursing care, increase nursing beds and medical care beds, and improve the effective supply of old-age care services. By 2020, the number of beds for the aged will reach 35-40 per thousand, of which the proportion of nursing beds will not be less than 30%. The establishment of the National Health and Wellness Committee this time will co-ordinate medical care and old-age care and formulate a policy of combining medical care with nursing care. The combination of medical care and nursing will usher in great benefits.
"The combination of medical care and nursing is a new service model for the aged, which combines rehabilitation medical care with life care, including traditional life care services, mental and psychological services and cultural services provided by old-age care institutions for the elderly, as well as medical rehabilitation services." Therefore, the integrated system of community, village and medical care combines the functions of pension institutions and hospitals, and its functional modules mainly include: elderly management, medical management, physiotherapy management, reception management, evaluation management, service management, personnel management, order management and so on.
