Why is it that there are rural people who would rather go to a private clinic that is not reimbursed than to a hospital that is reimbursed?

Why is it that there are rural people who would rather go to a private clinic that is not reimbursed than to a hospital that is reimbursed?

In the past, there were barefoot doctors in the countryside, and although their medical skills and conditions were not comparable to those of the big hospitals, they were able to see a doctor close to their home without spending too much time, and the cost of medicines was not too expensive. General colds and minor illnesses and injuries can be completely solved. Medical cost is not much money.

If the 70s and 80s, a small illness only cost a few cents, some only a couple of cents. That is, nowadays the village private doctor, also only spends a few dollars, even if the serious condition to go through the infusion, only a few dozen dollars nearly a hundred dollars on 0K. If you go to the hospital, you really can't afford to mess with it. First of all, it is to enter the door to register, reasonable and unreasonable to carry out a few kinds of examination, at least check the blood, or to go to the fluoroscopy, to spend dozens of hundreds of thousand ranging from hospitalization also have to pay the gate fee, both also spend time more money, not to mention, repeated several times toss, the patient is also difficult. I had hoped to see a doctor early early medication, from eight o'clock in the morning to nearly noon to pay the fee to get the medicine, the doctor a prescription is a few courses of medicine, medicine a few bags, the patient really can not afford so much trouble.

As for counting and paying, one is dumbfounded to know that one has spent several hundred to a thousand dollars. Even if they were reimbursed 80%, they would still have to pay two to three hundred dollars. Originally, it is only a small illness, do not need to carry out a full range of checks, private doctors quickly through the examination of the smell and ask for advice on the prescription to take medication, medication, without so much trouble, and at the same time in the cost of up to a few tens of dollars, even if it is too much.

Therefore, due to their limited financial resources, farmers usually go to the nearest or even distant but good doctors when they are sick. The experience of many patients is that, even if the reimbursement rate is high and the out-of-pocket expenses are much higher than those of private doctors, they would rather buy medicines in pharmacies or consult private doctors than go to foreign-licensed large hospitals, except when they have to be hospitalized. For patients who cannot be treated well by any doctor and who go to large hospitals, it is often the case that both the patient and the money are lost.

Nowadays, not only rural people, but also urban people would rather go to a reimbursed private clinic than a reimbursed hospital. The reason for this is that there are too many checkups and registration fees in hospitals nowadays, and the registration fees for specialists are even more expensive, and the fees for the initial consultation, i.e., other than 600 to 1,000 yuan, will be reimbursed. This calculation will cost thousands of dollars for a minor illness, but only a few hundred to a thousand dollars for a minor illness in a small private clinic. The people are not stupid, and they can do the math!

The problem is really one of money. Rural people can't afford to part with their money, even though they have health insurance, but if they go to a major hospital with reimbursement, the fare, the photos, the exams, the blood tests, the urine tests. CT scans, nuclear magnetic resonance. Costs a ton. Although half of the reimbursement, but still far more than the cost of rural Chinese medicine to see a doctor, using the farmers are not very sick is not going to go to the big hospital to see a doctor. Refused to my knowledge, most farmers only go to the big hospital once in a lifetime. Cold and flu, in the rural hospital to buy a few dozen dollars, or a few hundred dollars of medicine is enough. Farmers will not go to a big hospital for treatment unless they have to. That is not a place for the poor. In a word, can't afford to live there.

The answer is simple, in a few words don't go for reimbursement, easy access to the doctor, not so much hassle. And spend very little money. Time is also very short, do not have to check, this check, that send those equipment inspection fee.

The same disease to reimbursement of hospitals to do the examination, see the doctor time delay and cure the disease can not be checked, so check that, the cost of sending a lot of reimbursement, calculated with some more money, it is better to go to make up for the reimbursement of the place, simple to save things. Because now the hospital has lost the role of public welfare, is completely figure profit figure to make money.


A lot of equipment inspection costs could have been omitted exempted, and some equipment simply do not need to check, now the hospital doctor as long as you go in tube you what disease, the first check blood, in the check dry, and then the tea saint to check on you all over the body, and then this disease actually has nothing to do with him, the inspection fee spent thousands of prescribed medicines only dozens of dollars, this is to see what kind of disease? Small disease, this is the effect of the state hospital reimbursement, waste of state property, waste of the people's energy and money, who wants to go to the reimbursement of the reimbursement of the local reimbursement.

The above questions answered based on personal feelings conflict with the actual situation, thank you for understanding.

I guess it's not publicized enough.

Many people don't realize that most of the medical expenses for major illnesses, after joining the New Farmers' Cooperative, can be reimbursed.

In addition, these two years, the epidemic is serious, to the hospital to see the doctor is very troublesome, sweep the auspicious code, registration and payment sweep microblogging. Everything is swept code operation, do not understand will not use.

Then there are many farmers, too much time and effort to go to the hospital to see a doctor, why not go to an individual clinic to see a doctor and prescribe medication, spend not much money, save trouble and convenient, right? ...

Not some rural people, but most rural people in general, are not willing to go to the regular hospital to ask for medical treatment. The main reason is to the regular hospital to see the trouble, especially no acquaintance is inconvenient, not only to queue up to register, and now hang a specialist number need to make an appointment online. For rural people there are many inconveniences, that is, the trustees to do a good job, the clinic is not familiar with. And to the private clinic to see a doctor to save time and effort, not only to save like registration, laboratory tests and other cumbersome procedures, but also to save time and a lot of costs. Especially for patients with minor illnesses and pains as well as difficult cases, most people choose private clinics, such as those in the local experienced doctors and reputable old Chinese medicine practitioners, the most sought-after, and many people will come to the clinic.

Another reason is that most rural people do not pay much attention to their own bodies, that is, a little discomfort or pain will be strong, it is impossible to go to the hospital to find a doctor when there is a disease, and it is really unable to resist to go to the hospital for treatment. There are a lot of minor illnesses due to put a long time, resulting in a major disease, and even some diseases in the early stages if found early, can be completely cured, and delayed for a long time, found late, but became incurable. To the family and loved ones caused lifelong regret.

It is better now. Under the care of the Party and the Government, it has become somewhat easier for rural people to see a doctor, especially as the Government organizes regular visits by specialist doctors to villages to check up on rural people, which is a great thing and solves the big problem of difficult access to doctors for elderly people and women with mobility problems. A large number of people have been able to be diagnosed at the early stages of their illnesses and have received timely and effective treatment.

Why are there rural people who would rather go to a private clinic that is not reimbursed than to a hospital that is reimbursed?

Because they want to save money! Rural people themselves do not have a high income, or do not have a stable income, for their own sick, usually can survive as long as possible, can not survive before you want to go to the drugstore to buy their own medicine, deal with a little.

Of course, if there is a private clinic is also a good choice, why, because the private clinic because of the limited conditions, directly according to the patient's narrative, to give you a pulse, give you some medicine, or say a few injections, the charges are not expensive, but also reasonable.

And into the hospital to see a doctor, in the absence of a diagnosis of the disease before, will give you a large number of checklists, do a variety of tests, large hospitals are too many people light check and have to queue up one by one, but also to wait for the results, time-consuming and laborious, not bad, on the large hospitals to see a doctor is reimbursed, but overall, the cost is also quite a lot, excluding reimbursement of the outside, the individual's share of the can not be said to say that the common cold and cough and fever, it may cost several hundred yuan, or even a thousand dollars, for the average rural person can not afford it, and too worth it. If you are talking about a common cold, cough and fever, you may have to spend hundreds of dollars, or even thousands of dollars, which is not worth it for the ordinary rural people.

Whereas at a private clinic you might spend a few dozen dollars, or at most a hundred dollars to get cured, and the results might be okay a little quicker.

But see a doctor to be divided into what disease, for the common cold and cough do not need to go to the hospital, in the private clinic can also be treated, but if it is a big disease, malignant lesions, or go to the hospital as soon as possible to check, diagnosed and get immediate treatment, so as not to delay the condition, regret is also too late, after all, life is the most valuable.



I have also been pondering over this question: Why do farmers not go to public hospitals where they are reimbursed but go to private clinics or village doctors? In fact, it is very simple. The first thing about going to a private clinic is that the service attitude is good, and then the consultation procedure is simple. Sometimes, they can even make house calls. This is something that public hospitals simply cannot do. Even for a simple illness, it is necessary to undergo various tests and examinations, which costs money that should not have been spent. What is worse is that the service attitude of public hospitals is generally bad. If you do not know anyone, the medical staff will treat you like ice. It makes people very uncomfortable. When you go to a private clinic, the doctor, in order to earn money, treats every patient and his family very well. It's not that he's compassionate, it's not that he's kind. But he knows one thing, you are here to send money. In order to money his service attitude must be good. On the contrary, in public hospitals, health care workers are in their own way. So the attitude towards patients are basically very cold. Patients and their families were already in a bad mood when they got sick, and then they were treated coldly. Think about it, who will want to come back next time. Unless absolutely necessary, as long as there is a way, who do not want to see your cold face again. It's as simple as that. Some people live their whole life until they die and never realize such a simple truth. The old man said, "Harmony makes money, and harmony makes money. This is true whether you are practicing medicine, doing business or being an official.

A small disease to the hospital to check into a big disease, the examination fee medical fees a whole lot, this is a fundamental big problem! So the villagers are willing to go to the private clinic, a small clinic to cure the problem, treat the root cause of the disease less expensive!

It's not that I don't want to go, but I really don't have the money and can't afford to go! To the hospital outpatient treatment of a cold, but also hundreds of dollars, not hospitalized can not be reimbursed. If you go to a private clinic, you can easily get it done for a few dozen dollars.

Some time ago, my mother was treated in the hospital for a total of half a month, the first time for various outpatient tests, and the second time for inpatient treatment, and the doctors in the inpatient unit asked for a repeat of the various items that had been examined the first time.

According to the regulations, if you are not hospitalized, the cost of outpatient examination is not reimbursed, the first examination with prescription drugs cost nearly 1,000 yuan. The second time, spent more than 3,000 yuan, the reimbursement rate is urban residents health insurance, 65% reimbursement, the two times spent a total of more than 2,000 yuan.

My old man and old lady, the reason why they are willing to go to the hospital for treatment is because they are old enough to have a pension, if there is no serious illness basically do not need to be borne by their children, so, regardless of the reimbursement rate of the hospital, they go to see a doctor, do not have to look at the face of their children, and there is no burden in their hearts.

There are people in rural areas who do not go to the hospital, the crux of the problem is still money, there is no second reason.

In the private clinics in the past, the quality of doctors, as well as the standard of medical care varied, and medical malpractices occurred from time to time. In our area, there was a two-member private clinic where a major medical incident occurred when a patient was given an infusion and the patient died.

In the end, the two families tore themselves apart for a long time, and the clinic paid out a large sum of money to the patient's family, because of which no patients came to the clinic and the clinic was forced to close down. In recent years, the state's supervision of medical clinics has become more and more intense, and the clinic's doctors often need to go out to study and training, and the level of medical care has been greatly improved.

Even so, access to private clinics is very limited. For example, when giving injections for fever, some clinic doctors will let the patient go to the hospital for a blood test and look at the laboratory report themselves to see whether to give the patient a cephalosporin or penicillin.

The conditions of private clinics are very simple, that is, the routine issue of medicines, treatment of colds, fevers, enteritis, allergies, and so on, a little more serious, the doctor can not see, the need for more sophisticated instruments, the need for more sophisticated experts, all of these hardware and software, only the designated hospitals can do.

To the hospital, the rural elderly without children with, on the medical procedures, simply can not play, some light to find a place to turn dizzy. Nowadays, many rural people, heavy family burden, children are working outside, the old man is not particularly serious illnesses, generally at home to endure, really can not endure, to the clinic to prescribe some medicine to stop the pain, anti-inflammatory, swelling even if it - people live a life, the grass and trees in the autumn, and the final end is the same, why be too sentimental!

Some old people have no money in hand, and their children are not filial. Even if they mention it to their sons and daughters, it is expected that they will be sidetracked by their children, and some of their children are forced to send their own parents to private clinics for medication and injections to muddle through.

There is also a kind of old man, too much love for themselves, too much cherish their own lives, often run to the hospital, in fact, there is no big problem. The family has such an old man, but also the children's sadness, after all, the children's burden is also very heavy, their own children, but also have to support their parents, but also can not leave the work to accompany their parents to make hard work. In the beginning, the child filial piety, will also send their parents to the hospital, more often, the heart of the immune, but also love who who.

No matter what, and no matter which kind, as long as you go to the hospital, let's not talk about how sick you are in the first place? And never mind what kind of medicine is picked up at the back. Or what kind of treatment is needed? Just the whole process of checking down, have to be one or two thousand dollars, this cost, many patients feel in their hearts is a complete waste of medical resources, but also a kind of overbearing.

After the examination, the subsequent treatment is another expense. If there is no treatment after the examination, the money spent upfront is tantamount to spending for nothing, so what is the point?

In the hearts of many rural elderly, the grandchildren of the family is the future of their own families, children are the support of the family, everything should be their priority, money spent on them to make sense. Their own old, only spend money not to make money, if it is not the disease can not stand, many people choose to hold back, some even choose to give up their lives.

Although cruel, but to some extent is the reality, in the final analysis, or the reason for the money, a lot of rural elderly people's lives, that is, struggling on the poverty line, enough to eat, wear warm enough, to talk about other things, it is too much to worry about.

Thanks for the support.
