Excellent hand and heart doctor

Chapter 676 The American Patient (for Subscription)

"Unless you're Bill Gates, you're only one catastrophe away from bankruptcy!"

Slofer said with emotion: "Although this statement is a bit exaggerated, it is also a fact, especially for the middle class in the United States."

"The United States has relatively complete medical insurance and critical illness insurance, but except for several private high-cost medical insurance, most medical insurance has strict regulations on treatment methods, drugs used, hospitals, and even attending doctors."

"If the condition is serious and complicated, you need to pay for it yourself, which is staggeringly high, if you go to a private hospital to ask a famous doctor for diagnosis and treatment, or even a consultation."

"Moreover, not all Americans have medical insurance. There are still many Americans with medical insurance who are sometimes in the insurance window period because of unemployment or various reasons."

"Once these people get a serious illness, they can only wait to die or go bankrupt due to illness."

"In addition to the issue of medical expenses, there is another important reason."

Slofer looked at Lin Jie, and said solemnly: "Mr. Lin Jie, I have studied it seriously, and your medical skills can be said to be comparable to Dr. Sisilda, Dr. Ke Lan, Dr. Dardov and others in the United States. .”

"These are the top medical experts in neurosurgery, general surgery, and eye surgery in the United States."

"The schedules of these people can be said to be full, and besides the weekend rest, they often take a vacation or something. Unless the patient's status is special, if you want to jump in the line to ask them for treatment, or let them give up the rest to come to the doctor, you can't do it. It’s all about money.”

"So, Mr. Lin Jie, my plan is to first introduce some middle-class patients with serious illnesses to come to China and ask you to treat them. Firstly, the treatment effect is guaranteed, and secondly, the medical expenses will be much lower than those in the United States."

At this moment, Shen Lanruo's voice sounded in Lin Jie's mind: "Ajie, the medical expenses in the United States are indeed very high. Let me tell you some figures for reference."

"Mayo Clinic, routine liver transplant surgery, about $22. Conventional heart transplant surgery, about $18, and routine kidney transplant surgery, about $[-]."

"The reason why the word 'routine' is added is that the patient's body has no special conditions, and the operation process is going well. However, if something unexpected happens, the cost of the operation will suddenly double, or even several times, which is normal. .”

"Ajie, you did it in the hospital. The girl's facial hemangioma surgery is a compound surgery. According to the calculation method of the Mayo Clinic's surgery cost, it will not be less than 20 US dollars."

These figures made Lin Jie somewhat astonished.

Compared with domestic treatment costs, this cost standard is at least five or six times the difference.

I heard Slofer continue: "Mr. Lin Jie, after your reputation spreads in the United States, there will naturally be a steady stream of American patients who come to Anlin Hospital in China to seek treatment due to medical expenses and other reasons. .”

Earning money from foreigners is naturally what Lin Jie likes to see, and it can also quickly open up the reputation of Anlin Hospital.

"Mr. Slofell, your suggestion sounds wonderful. However, I have a question."

Lin Jie asked softly: "In the impression of most Americans, our country is a country with backward development, especially in terms of medical technology."

"It can be said that many Chinese people go to the United States for medical treatment every year."

"How do you convince your compatriots to believe in my medical skills? This is a major matter involving their own lives. They will not come to China so easily to take risks."

Slofell smiled confidently, took a sip from the teacup, and said, "Eliminating a person's prejudice is naturally not an easy task, and this is where my value lies."

"Mr. Lin Jie, I have been engaged in the sales of medical devices for a long time. Because of my work relationship, I have known doctors from many hospitals in the United States."

"When I was in China, I spent a lot of my free time introducing hospitals to patients and helping to make appointments for doctors. In this field, my reputation and credit are quite good."

Seeing the confidence on Slofer's face, Lin Jie was a little taken aback.

It turns out that this guy is a medical trustee, intermediary and scalper in the United States. He wants to expand his international business.

Slofer said without hesitation: "Mr. Lin Jie, I have some doctor resources, but frankly speaking, their level is there, but their level is still a bit low, and they can only deal with some not very serious ones. Very urgent illness."

He said with regret: "Mr. Lin Jie, your medical skills are high, but your medical qualifications are not recognized in the United States."

"if not……"

Slofer sighed regretfully.

He also made plans to let Lin Jie go to the United States to work as a black market doctor.

But after investigating Lin Jie's current situation, he immediately dispelled this unreliable idea. Is a famous doctor who is widely recognized in China worthy of taking risks in the United States?

However, Slofer thought about it, this is also an opportunity.

If Lin Jie can come to the United States to practice medicine openly, nothing will happen to him.

Lin Jie's medical skills are genuine.

It took a lot of effort to persuade patients to come to China for medical treatment in the early stage, but Slofer is confident that with the reputation he has accumulated over the years, plus some guarantees and discounts, someone will be tempted.

As long as there are the first and second in the early stage, and word of mouth spreads, there will be a steady stream of follow-up patients.

"Mr. Slofer, I still need to think about this matter carefully, and I can't give you a clear answer yet." Lin Jie finally gave a vague answer after a delay.

Slofer chuckled softly: "This is indeed a decision that requires serious consideration."

"Mr. Lin Jie, please believe that this is definitely a proposal that is mutually beneficial..."

After dinner, Slofer bid farewell and went back to the hotel.

Lin Jie stayed and continued to discuss the matter with An Weize and An Kexin.

He asked, "Uncle An, Kexin, what do you think of this matter?"

An Kexin pondered for a while, and took the lead: "Ajie, I think we can agree to this matter."

"Patients who come to see a doctor abroad are also patients."

"And they are all at their own expense, and they don't need domestic medical insurance reimbursement, which can be regarded as earning foreign exchange for the country. We can also use discriminatory pricing to overcharge their medical expenses."

She smiled grinningly, and continued, "There is another issue of publicity."

"The Phoenix Mountain Hospital that Luo's family belongs to claims to hire medical experts from all over the world, so that Chinese people can see a doctor at their doorstep with peace of mind. As for us, we let Americans come to see a doctor from thousands of miles away."

"With such an obvious comparison, outsiders will judge whether the level of the hospital is high or low."

"Dad, don't you think so?"

An Weize shook his head lightly, with a serious face, and criticized: "Ke Xin, don't always weigh the interests of the hospital."

"You have to remember that Ajie is the core of the hospital. Only things that are beneficial to Ajie are beneficial to the hospital."

He turned his gaze to Lin Jie, and said softly, "Ajie, I understand your thoughts. You just want to let the development of Anlin Hospital enter a virtuous circle of development within three to five years."

"At that time, you can spare time and energy to focus on scientific research and work hard for the goal of the Nobel Prize in Physiology."

"The Rehabilitation Center for Disabled Soldiers in cooperation with the military, the Sports Trauma Research Center in cooperation with Ye Peihua, and the Oriented Medicine Class in cooperation with Binhai University, plus what you planned earlier, after the Anlin Hospital is put into operation, through the University Training work in various ways such as lectures, teaching operations, and special reports..."

An Weize said in a deep voice, "All these things need your support."

"It is foreseeable that the patients introduced by Slofer in the early stage must be some seriously ill patients. Perhaps only you have the confidence to treat these patients."

"Ajie, you have done enough for the hospital, you need to take it easy."

He warned: "Many things are haste makes waste, Ajie, you don't need to be in a hurry. Although the hospital takes you as the core, it's not just you, there are hundreds of colleagues who work with you. You can also exert some strength, and there are many things that you don’t need to fight alone.”

"Ajie, I hope to see you and Kexin together for a long time, understand?"

As soon as he said this, Lin Jie was a little moved, and realized the feeling of being truly cared for.

An Kexin's face turned pale in an instant, and she said anxiously: "Ajie, Ajie, I have no other ideas, I just... I just..."

Lin Jie stretched out his hand and pinched her nose, and said with a smile, "You are in a hurry, don't worry, I will think too much."

"Actually, Kexin, your idea is quite right."

He analyzed: "It can be predicted that even if I and Anlin Hospital are well-known in the United States, the number of American patients who come to see a doctor is still limited."

"And for patients from the United States, we can first screen through medical records. For those with mild illnesses who don't need my help, we naturally welcome as many people as possible."

"For the patients who need my help, I will arrange them according to my work schedule. Those who can be arranged will be accepted, and those who cannot be arranged will be rejected."

"This way, it won't increase my workload much."

Lin Jie laughed and said, "Such a small group of Americans can not only bring relatively rich income to Anlin Hospital, but also bring them a good reputation. I think Slofer's suggestion is feasible."

He said proudly: "The development goal of Anlin Hospital is an internationally renowned hospital. Since it is internationally renowned, it must accept patients from all over the world."

"From the very beginning, patients from the United States came to our door. How could you refuse such a good thing?"

"Ke Xin, have a good talk with that Mr. Slofell, um... Let's find out through him, how high is the medical price for American patients."
