Boost for city鈥檚 private hospitals
Print Edition
PRIVATE medical facilities in Shanghai are finding it easier to attract specialists from public hospitals after a reform announced by the national government early this month.
The reform reduces the complicated procedures for doctors to work in more than one facility. No longer do doctors need to get their primary employer’s approval to work in other facilities. They just need to register at the regional health authority.
Shanghai Ren-ai Hospital announced over the weekend that it had signed about 50 specialists from public hospitals this month.
“Previously, public hospitals were not happy that their specialists work in private hospitals due to it impacting their own business. So they always refused to give the green light,” said Xu Shanshan, president of Ren-ai Hospital.
“It means patients don’t go all the way to crowded public hospitals. They can see a leading expert in a facility just near their home,” Xu added.
Yosemite Clinic, the city’s first private ambulatory surgery center, has also benefited from the new policy.
The clinic, which opened at the weekend, has attracted more than 50 top surgeons from leading public hospitals.
“Ambulatory surgery is a new thing in China, while it has been popular in the West,” said Dr Song Keying, the founder of Yosemite Clinic.
“About 80 to 90 percent of surgeries in the United States are done through minimally invasive day surgery.”
