Objective To systematically review the impact of Beijing's comprehensive reform of medical consumption linkage on medical expenses, hospital services, and hospital income. Methods Databases including CNKI, WanFang Data, VIP, CBM, PubMed, and Web of Science were searched to collect empirical research on evaluating the impact of Beijing's comprehensive reform of medical consumption linkage on patient medical expenses and hospital operation (service volume and income structure) from June 15th, 2019 to August 15th, 2021. A descriptive analysis was performed after two reviewers independently screened the literature and extracted data. Results A total of 23 studies were included, and most of them found a relatively small change in the average outpatient and emergency medical expenses after the reform. However, the average inpatient expenses in some hospitals showed an increasing trend; the service volume of most hospitals increased slightly, and the income structure was optimized (e.g., surgery and other medical technology services revenue and its proportion increased). Conclusion The comprehensive reform of the medical consumption linkage in Beijing is the practice of deepening the reform of the medical service price mechanism. Based on the summary of the reform effect, it is recommended to further improve the price mechanism, improve service quality, and promote hierarchical diagnosis and treatment.
Objective To provide a reference for the best evidence-based medicine (EBM) education modelby retrospective analysis and summary the EBM education model of the EBM center of Lanzhou University for medicalpostgraduates. Methods To utilize students’ spare time we changed the traditional teaching method, and instead used problem based learning and academic discussions to teach postgraduates how to design and apply research. Results Sixtytwo postgraduates were trained and completed 73 research papers and registered 33 Cochrane systematic reviews. Twentythree papers were published in foreign journals (SCI) as first authors, 34 papers were published in domestic journals. Five students received awards in the academic conference of Lanzhou University. Conclusion Medical students will benefit from taking part in EBM research. This education model will help them not only understand the methods of clinical research and EBM and improve the quality of their research and their cooperative skills, but also master related clinical knowledge.
The Second People’s Hospital of Yibin was taken over by West China Hospital of Sichuan University into its close hospital alliance, and simultaneously undertook the task of construction of regional hospital alliance in Yibin city. The article introduces the experiences of the Second People’s Hospital of Yibin in the high-quality development of novel healthcare system. Led by West China Hospital of Sichuan University and based on all-level medical institutions in Yibin, the Second People’s Hospital of Yibin preliminarily established a four-level hierarchical medical system as “province, city, county, village” model, according to the guide of governments within the whole region. It aims to propose a “Yibin model exploration” in hospital alliance construction based on the western regional situation.

In response to the education and teaching reform, West China School of Medicine/West China Hospital, Sichuan University, initiated a general course on clinical engineering technology assessment and evaluation for the undergraduates in 2018. Through the course practice in the past two years, the number of students increased significantly, and we also achieved certain teaching achievements. At the same time, the teaching evaluation among undergraduates was excellent. Nevertheless, there are still certain deficiencies in the content of teaching, teaching methods and faculty. Therefore, this article summarizes the experience and lessons since the start of the course, and proposes corresponding teaching reform measures, providing reference for the establishment or reform of related interdisciplinary courses such as clinical engineering technology assessment and evaluation in the future.
It is an inexorable trend that evidence-based medicine (EBM) is being adopted at clinical medicine education in the 21st century. EBM neurology has been developing with the progress of the world of evidence-based medicine and clinical neurology. New requirements have been proposed in neurology education with the development of EBM. The adoption of EBM in modern clinical education will be a great influence: promoting the further development of neurology, cultivating talented doctors, and improving the quality of treatment.
ObjectivesTo investigate the utilization of essential medicines and antibiotics in primary healthcare system of Xinjin county of Chengdu city from 2009 to 2011. MethodsThe data of utilization of all the medicines, essential medicines and antibiotics was collected from 17 hospitals of Xinjin primary healthcare system. Microsoft Excel 2003 was used to analyze the data. ResultsCompared with 2009, the total costs of medicines and essential medicines increased by 72.27% and 135.4% respectively in 2010. After the implementation of essential medicine policy in 2010, the proportion of essential medicines accounted for more than 90% in community healthcare centers (CHCs) and township hospitals (THs) and over 50% in county-level hospitals in 2011. In 2010, the average cost per prescription among outpatients increased by 3.51% in total, but deceased by 16.23% in CHCs/THs (RMB 15.09 yuan per prescription). In July of 2011, the policy to control the use of antibiotics was implemented in Xinjin county. The use of antibiotics decreased, but still accounted for over 30% in 9 out of 13 CHCs/THs. The use of bigeminy antibiotics and trigeminy antibiotics accounted for 0.42 to 5.56% and 0 to 0.44%, respectively. ConclusionsThe use of essential medicines increases in Xinjin county and met the national requirements. The average cost per prescription among outpatient decreases in THs and CHCs. After controlling the use of antibiotics, the proportion and cost of antibiotics is still very high, and irrational use of antibiotics probably still exists. The training and guide for evidence-based rational use of medicine should be enhanced in future.
Clinical practice is very important in clinical pharmacology education. However, there are some deficiencies in this field in China. Clinical trial institutions in China are medical institutions that are qualified to undertake drug clinical trials. There are hardware and software for clinical pharmacology practice, and high-quality teaching personnel with medical, teaching, and scientific research backgrounds in the clinical trial institutions, which can be used as clinical pharmacology teaching practice bases. Therefore, this article discusses the practice of clinical pharmacology teaching reform using clinical trial institutions as a practical platform, and aims to put forward teaching reform ideas that combining students’ clinical pharmacology research practice on the basis of theoretical teaching.
Based on the situation of healthcare reform, new cooperative hospitals with private assets invested came into being. Our hospital carried out such practice and established the first new type hospital in the southwest of China in 2012. In the new cooperative mode, a new neurology ward was established. A series of unique and innovative means of operation and quality control were applied, including introduction of brand marketing strategy, promoting advantageous sub-professions, and pay special attention on talents and quality control. This article is aimed to share the management experiences.
