No one is applauding
After the price increase information was circulated in the industry, it attracted a good voice. The following is a message for Weiyou:
It’s good to rise, this is respect for talent and knowledge!
It should have been like this for a long time, so that people who really need an expert to see a doctor go to an expert. It is not a mess of diseases, they are looking for experts to see, rationally allocate medical resources and support!
It is recommended that the emergency registration fee also increase, saving the common cold and fever and hanging experts to waste quality medical resources.
â– questioning constantly
For special needs medical services, doubts have been constant since the 1990s.
According to a report by the China Youth Daily in 2014, Zhou Lejin, a cardiovascular internal medicine expert, said that “public hospitals should be fair and equitable.†“The best expert resources are concentrated on special needs, but the people are hard to match. This clearly deviates from the purpose of public hospitals. â€
“Public hospitals have financial commitments from the state, and they should act in accordance with public principles.†Zhu Hengpeng, a researcher at the Public Policy Research Center of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, said that “public hospitals have a lot of resources to compete for high-end medical markets compared with private hospitals. Competition is unfair from the beginning."
Nowadays, not only the registration fees for special needs clinics in Shanghai and Guangzhou are soaring, the exclamation of “look down, too expensive†is endless.
â– 3 years ago, was once considered a tumor
The so-called special needs medical care refers to the medical service activities carried out by the hospital to meet the special medical needs of the masses on the basis of ensuring the basic medical needs, including name surgery, overtime surgery, full-time care, special needs wards, and expert outpatients.
In fact, starting from January 1, 2017, Beijing, which opened special needs medical services, in 2014, its health planning committee also decided to make a major “surgery†for public hospitals and remove the “tumor†of special medical care.
Three years have passed and a lot of things have happened. Drugs were canceled, medical prices were generally raised, and hospital funds were tight. Therefore, the special needs medical services that have been criticized for being unfair have not been cancelled. Instead, prices have skyrocketed. Is this a respect for the value of doctors or a means of income generation?
It is special in two aspects of farming and processing: The green tea plants for matcha are shade grown for about three weeks before harvest, and the stems and veins are removed in processing.
The traditional Chinese tea ceremony centers on the preparation, serving, and drinking of matcha. In modern times, matcha also has come to be used to flavour and dye foods such as mochi and soba noodles, green tea ice cream,etc.
It`s a special form of green tea:
Matcha literally means powdered tea." When you order traditional green tea, components from the leaves get infused into the hot water, then the leaves are discarded. With matcha, you`re drinking the actual leaves, which have been finely powdered and made into a solution, traditionally by mixing about a teaspoon of matcha powder with a third cup of hot water (heated to less than a boil), which is then whisked with a bamboo brush until it froths.
