Chapter 429 My Comrade

Gao Yuan also fell silent after hearing this. After a while, he said, "Are you so vindictive?"

Wang Hanzhang said seriously: "For a party member, your words are a denial of my lifelong efforts."

Gao Yuan suddenly choked up, and then he said: "I'm sorry."

Wang Hanzhang shook his head slowly: "I don't blame you. When it comes to medical reform, I didn't do a good enough job. You should blame me."

"Alas..." Gao Yuan immediately sighed deeply.

Wang Hanzhang said to him: "But you should also know that the road we are walking on has never been walked before. We can't see clearly what is under the river. We can only move forward gradually, and there may be bumps. If you trip, there may be deviations, and you may even fall hard."

"As a doctor, of course you can say that this is wrong with me and that I am wrong with that. But you are not sitting in my position. If you were in my position, could you really see the longer term than me? Can you really Can you make a better decision than me? We are just a group of people crossing the river by feeling the stones. Twists and turns are inevitable, but you have to believe that our goals are always the same, and we are all working hard to make our People’s lives are better.”

Gao Yuan felt very uncomfortable after saying this.

Wang Hanzhang looked at Gao Yuan, with memories in his eyes, and said, "Do you still remember? In 56, you caught the flu just after you came back. At that time, no one went to support Huoxiang, so you and others Went. When you came back, I was waiting for you at the intersection. I was the first one to call you comrade, Gao Yuan. I have always regarded you as my comrade."

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Gao Yuan was extremely regretful.

Wang Hanzhang shook his head: "I don't want to blame you. I came to you. I just want to tell you that I am not the kind of person you think. I did the anti-corruption in medical treatment. I also did the elimination of the department contracts of the two hospitals. Improvement I am also responsible for providing subsidies to township health centers. This year, your county started anti-African prevention early, and it was also me who had the say."

"Now that the new rural cooperative medical system is about to be relaunched, I have also exchanged opinions with relevant leaders and strived for a pilot demonstration for your county. If the village-level clinics are willing to change to a collective setting, the village doctors can now pass The health system will provide coordination, and when they are old, they can receive pensions, which will also provide a guarantee for their future."

Gao Yuan looked at Wang Hanzhang blankly.

Wang Hanzhang said: "But I am also sorry. For your earliest batch of barefoot doctors, there is no way to hand them over to the coordinator. They are too old. But as long as they are still on the job and have rural doctor certificates, then they can I can still get paid. As for the former midwives in the village, I can't do anything. The township health center that was sold cannot be redeemed yet. These are the areas where I have fallen short, but I have tried my best."

Gao Yuan said to him: "You have done a good job, I thank you on their behalf, and I also thank you on Li Weimin's behalf."

Wang Hanzhang looked into Gao Yuan's eyes and asked, "So, are you still willing to think that I am your comrade?"

"Of course." Gao Yuan nodded seriously.

Wang Hanzhang asked him again: "Then you are still willing to call me Lao Wang?"

Gao Yuan said: "Old Wang."

Wang Hanzhang laughed: "Why are you swearing?"

Gao Yuan also laughed, but then he covered his eyes, tears could not stop flowing out, and said softly: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

Wang Hanzhang comforted him warmly: "It doesn't matter, because we are comrades."

A week later, Wang Hanzhang died of illness.

Gao Yuan went to his funeral and stood in front of his grave for a long time.Maybe it’s because the older you get, the easier it is to think about the past.Wang Hanzhang is a long-time smoker who never leaves his hand, and he also loves sharing cigarettes with others.Every time Gao Yuan went to see him, he would always throw the cigarette box to Gao Yuan and signal him to take it himself, but Gao Yuan had never smoked one.

Gao Yuan looked at the photo of Wang Hanzhang on the tombstone. He groped around on his body and took out a pack of cigarettes. He opened it awkwardly and said, "I was also a smoker in my last life, so I was disliked by my wife. In this life, I am determined to I don’t smoke anymore. You have advised me many times, and you said you never had the chance to smoke one with me. In fact, you don’t know, we smoked together many times in our last life. But we don’t have this opportunity in this life. Now in your grave I'll smoke one with you." After saying that, Gao Yuan took out two cigarettes, lit them, placed one in front of Wang Hanzhang's grave, and put the other on his own mouth, and took a few puffs, which made him choke on the spicy taste. The smoke in his nose stimulated him to tears, and he said: "If there is an afterlife, I will smoke a few cigarettes with you. Goodbye, Comrade Wang Hanzhang."

……

In 2004, the state issued a document requiring that township health centers, which had been decentralized to townships for management, be transferred up to the county health administrative department for management. At the same time, financial subsidies for township health centers were included in the county fiscal budget.Since then, subsidies for township health centers have increased year by year.

Township health centers have survived the most difficult moments, and township health centers that were on the verge of bankruptcy have regained their vitality.

In 2005, the direction of medical reform changed dramatically.The state has clearly stated that "marketization is not the direction of medical reform" and "we will never advocate the advancement of the people and the retreat of the state."

This year, Li Runyu passed away.

The once No. 1 medical skill in the county is gone.The Yan family is gone too, that era has really passed.

Gao Yuan came to Li Runyu's grave with the newly published "Peng Ziyi Ancient Chinese Medicine" and placed the book in front of Li Runyu's tomb, fulfilling his last wish.Unfortunately, Li Runyu did not see the publication of this book.

In 2006, the New Rural Cooperative Medical System began to be widely implemented across the country, proposing a low-level, wide-coverage security model.Since then, farmers have had medical insurance, and township health centers have begun to develop. Individual payments are the same as in 2003, at 10 yuan.

In 2007, a new minister who had been a barefoot doctor took office, began to strengthen the construction of primary medical institutions, and issued the "Guiding Opinions on Launching the Pilot Program of Basic Medical Insurance for Urban Residents."Since then, urban and rural residents and urban employees have had medical coverage.But this year, the individual payment for the New Rural Cooperative Medical Care System became 20 yuan, and the price increased.

The collective economy of Gao Yuan's village has developed very well. The village collective has become rich, so it provides a subsidy of 5 yuan to each villager and a subsidy of 10 yuan to households in need. Therefore, the participation rate of the new rural cooperative medical insurance in their village quickly exceeded 90%.

In 2008, a large amount of fiscal funds were invested in grassroots medical institutions, and township health centers and village clinics were built according to the principle of "filling in and filling out the gaps".It is required that each county must build a county hospital, each township must have a government-run health center, and each administrative village must have a collectively-run clinic.

Individual clinics in the villages have been converted into collective clinics. These rural doctors have experienced the experience of being barefoot doctors in the production team and self-employed rural doctors, and now they have become grassroots doctors in the medical system. They finally get their salaries and pay social security.

The township health centers that were originally sold have also begun to redeem them.

The individual payment for the New Rural Cooperative Medical Care System has increased to 30 yuan.

In the same year, Shen Congyun passed away.

Yan Kuan and Yan Ren, who had broken off with him for many years, held a grand funeral for him. When Shen Congyun died, people seeing him off crowded both sides of the road and on the cemetery hill. The momentum was so huge and extremely rare that many media came to take photos. and reporting.Gao Yuan only found out later that he was the person hired by the brothers.Anyone who comes to see you off, no matter how big or small, will be given a hard-earned fee of 20 yuan.These media are also paid by them.

Of course, many people here came voluntarily because they had been favored by Shen Congyun, but more people came with money, which made Gao Yuan feel very uncomfortable.

After the funeral, Shen Congyun's "Grandpa Erjiao" became famous.

Zhangzhuang Health Center was redeemed, and the Shen brothers took the money to build a new hospital next door called "Shen's Traumatology Specialized Hospital." A bronze statue of Shen Congyun stood at the gate and became a living sign of the hospital. .With the expansion of the propaganda of "Grandpa Erjiao", the Shen brothers' hospital business is booming.

Shen's medicine was revitalized.

The father says goodbye and the son smiles.
