Electronic enthusiasts eight o'clock early: Internet medical heat, or enter a fast "freezing period."
Recently, a copy of the "Administrative Measures on Internet Treatment (Trial) (Draft for Comment) and the promotion of Internet medical services issued by the National Health and Family Planning Commission (hereinafter referred to as the "National Health Planning Commission") was published. In the letter of opinion (draft for comment) (hereinafter referred to as "the Measures"), one of them is: the relevant business company of Internet medical care set up before the issuance of the "Measures" shall be within 15 days after the issuance of the "Measures" It will be revoked and the Internet medical treatment activities will be re-administered in accordance with the provisions of these Measures.
This unpublished document caused an uproar in the Internet medical industry. According to informed sources, the above-mentioned "Measures" are true. "This "Measures" is currently seeking internal opinions and will seek opinions from the society in the future."
"This is a measure taken by the national health administrative supervision department in time for supervision." Deng Liqiang, director of the Legal Affairs Department of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, told the First Financial News that "China's current regulation of Internet medical care has not yet introduced relevant laws and regulations. Basically, basically, there are no relevant laws and regulations. It can be said that the supervision is zero. And medical care is related to life and health. When it comes to the lessons of blood, it will be late."
The emergence and risk of Internet medical care"The first thing to see a doctor is a doctor's consultation, followed by a physical examination, then a corresponding auxiliary examination with the aid of equipment, and finally a diagnosis. This is because of the responsibility for life. The emergence of the Internet has played a role in the popularization of technology. It is very useful, but it can't replace the examination and examination, and it is impossible to make a preliminary diagnosis." Deng Liqiang said.
Even so, the Internet carries a burst of medical behavior, and a variety of Internet medical models have emerged. With the advancement of the "Internet +" tide in China, the pace of Internet medical care is not slower than other industries.
According to public data, from 2011 to 2016, 533 Internet medical companies received a total investment of 3.321 billion US dollars, and the average financing amount of each company was about 6.23 million US dollars.
At the same time, many local governments also expect the Internet to solve the problem of difficult medical treatment. On April 6, 2016, Yinchuan Municipal Government officially signed a contract with Good Doctor Online to jointly build Yinchuan Smart Internet Hospital. This cooperation model, the Yinchuan Municipal Government has given great expectations.
While the Internet has blossomed everywhere, an industry insider has pointed out the risks. "Which of these medical risks brought by telemedicine should be looking for Internet technology companies or medical institutions? Our medical care is localized management. Local regulators are unable to supervise remote medical personnel in the field."
In addition, some places have set up a healthy lodge in the pharmacy. The doctor prescribes online and then delivers the medicine directly from the pharmacy. Regardless of China or other countries, there are strict requirements for the supervision of prescriptions. If you don't see people, you can't prescribe. There is no corresponding regulatory measure for these. In addition, it involves information security issues. Many Internet medical institutions publish patient information online, which is very risky.
With the rapid rise of Internet medical care, strengthening the management of core business activities and ensuring the quality and safety of medical care are issues that must be solved at present, but there is no document on Internet medical treatment.
For the current various modes of Internet medical care, Cheng Long, a professor at the Health Development Research Center of the National Health and Family Planning Committee, believes that “there are many nouns and concepts in the Internet medical field, and the definitions are unclear. There is a vague concept between service formats. Make the people have cognitive bias. I hope that the national authorities can define the definition of Internet medical care, especially Internet hospitals."
In addition, Cheng Long said that there are few Internet medical titles in the world. From the perspective of international telemedicine regulations, not all patients or a single situation is suitable for the Internet medical model.
Standardize Internet medicalThe "Measures" require that the local health and family planning administrative departments at or above the county level that have been approved for examination and approval before the issuance of the regulations shall be revoked within 15 days after the issuance of these Measures, and in accordance with this The Measures stipulate that the management of Internet medical activities will be re-established.
"For an existing Internet medical company, if it does not meet this condition, it must be re-registered." Cheng Long said.
This is equivalent to the reshuffling measures. It can be seen that the key to the promulgation of the "Measures" in the future is to ensure the quality and safety of medical care. The National Health and Family Planning Commission's heavy attack may make the hot Internet medical cold and cold.
Cheng Long believes that the current Internet medical sponsors are different, including Internet technology companies, medical institutions, local governments or Internet companies + medical institutions, financial institutions, insurance institutions. The main body of responsibility for medical services and the risk-sharing mechanism are unclear. In the event of a lack of legal reference for medical disputes, in order to strengthen the quality and safety monitoring of Internet medical care, it is necessary to limit the legal positioning and responsibility of different Internet medical services.
"The momentum of Internet medical care is too heavy, and it will be late after the emergence of out-of-control phenomenon. This industry needs to be standardized to be healthy," said a medical researcher.
"However, this method is a bit tight, and the restrictions on Internet medical treatment are a little dead, but from the perspective of medical security, this norm is to avoid violations in the Internet medical industry. Because such large-scale capital entry is bound to bring To vicious competition, in order to avoid problems in the development of private hospitals, this specification is very necessary in the present," the researchers said.
At the same time, the above researchers also said that it is impossible to curb innovation for supervision. The essence and focus of "Internet + medical" lies in "connection", which will bring doctors, patients, examinations, wards, pharmacies, nursing, rehabilitation, etc. at all levels across the country. All medical resources are redistributed in a more efficient manner. The socialization of "Internet +" medical treatment not only revitalized the idle medical resources, but also mobilized the motivation of all parties to participate in medical reform, and solved the problem of patients' medical treatment to some extent.
However, from the content of the "Measures", it does not completely limit the development of Internet medical care, but more clearly defines its scope of business.
