Further extension of the public hospital mergers and acquisitions to deepen the reform of high medical value
2010 is undoubtedly related to the medical services industry a year of rapid expansion of listed companies. With the deepening reform of public hospitals, medical services under the policy of good enterprises have accelerated the pace of expansion, through policy and Ireland eye health care services in two main industry companies, mergers and acquisitions and new information has been denied, pocketed the market eye.
Recently published annual report data show that the medical services industry with 44% growth rate, the 2010 profits of the pharmaceutical industry in the fastest growing sub-sector. Ireland eye and health care policy through two listed companies live up to expectations last year, operating income increased by 42.61% and 28.19%, 43.73% and profit increased by 121.81%.
Industry analysts point out that the good performance of the two companies separated from its expansion strategy, its products and gradually move from the low-end, gross margin improved further enhance profitability. This is the crucial three-year health care reform, many public hospitals are expected to support the reform measures have been put forward. With the wind policy, health care industry will usher in another wave of mergers and acquisitions climax.
Mergers and acquisitions to become the focus
National Development and Reform Commission announced the end of 2010, "further encourage and guide social capital to inform the views of medical institutions organized" for the industry rejoiced. Subsequently, to encourage social capital to do to encourage health-related provisions, start to appear in the provinces where the "second five" plan, quite atmosphere of Wind trend.
With the policy wind, Ireland Eye, and through policies to expand health care have taken up the banner.
Eye Ireland Annual Report 2010 show that last year the company acquired Beijing Intech, Chenzhou bright, Tianjin Macquarie, Macquarie Chongqing, Shijiazhuang Tracy and Tracy 6 Nanchong Eye Hospital, and the transferee of the Nanchang and Jinan Ireland Ireland the entire equity interest, and in Kunming, Changchun, Heze, Nanjing, Yueyang, Huaihua, Guiyang cities Eye Hospital, Eye Hospital to accelerate a national chain of distribution.
At the same time, Ireland Eye also acquired in February this year, the ancient city of Xi an, Northwest Eye officially enter the market. So far, the company has been operating a chain of 33 hospitals, hospital chains covering the country s 22 provinces (municipalities), the national chain network system taking shape. Merchants Securities research report, 2011, the company will complete the construction of other capital of the two hospitals, and in Hunan, Hubei and tertiary hospitals improve network coverage.
The pass also established a major medical policy through acquisitions, in the way of reform of public hospitals syndicated expansion strategy. In this regard, Orient Securities research report, in line with the law of development of the industry. The end of 2010, medical and Kunming city government through policy state-owned investment companies under SASAC was established through the policy of Kunming Medical Investment Management Co., Ltd., setting up a total size of 20 billion yuan in Kunming, capital funds through the health care policy, will help to expand acquisition funds to accelerate the acquisition progress. MCH has recently signed an agreement with Kunming, a joint venture set up the "Maternal and Child Health Hospital, Kunming Chenggong Hospital Limited", which the company invested 300 million yuan holds its 80% stake. In addition, the company is also the annual report of 2010 made it clear that external expansion plan for 2011 is expected within a year of major medical services company acquired 2 to 3, to be developed into a company s equivalent of a large hospital in Hangzhou Stomatology Hospital .
Some experienced industry analysts have pointed out, China s listed companies, the value of medical services has not been fully reflected in the relevant listed company is in the early stage of rapid replication, which compared the growth rate, the pattern of reproducibility, control of the channel capacity, the adequacy of pre-reserve personnel and other indicators more reference value.
"This year is crucial three-year health care reform, is expected to have a lot of support measures have been put forward, health care companies are scarce resources, will inevitably lead investors sought after." Insiders pointed out that in the process of reform of public hospitals, assets may be undervalued, many hospitals, medical and other listed companies through the strategy will be faced with more opportunities to lower the price of acquisition of assets of public hospitals, health care investment themes with the company ushered in a major positive.
Thickening of the high-end profits
This rapid expansion has brought the company s turnover soared. Ireland eye 2010 annual report, last year s total revenue of up to 864 million yuan, an increase of 42.61%; profit totaled 178 million yuan, an increase of 43.73%. Health policy through revenue 243 million yuan last year, an increase of 28.19%; achieve profit attributable to shareholders of listed companies 49.31 million yuan, an increase of 122%.
In-depth analysis of the two annual reports of listed companies is not difficult to find, its products have been gradually from the low-end, is one of the reasons the company s growth. Ireland eye care services last year, revenue 641 million yuan, an increase of 43.50%; optician services revenue of 131 million yuan, an increase of 42.77%; drug sales revenue of 92.5604 million yuan, an increase of 236.45%.
Analysts pointed out that in Ireland there ophthalmic medical services revenue, laser surgery and other high-end services, increasing the proportion of last year, the excimer laser treatment of myopia surgery revenue grew 42.97%; In addition, high-margin revenue glasses also increased, which further enhances the profitability of Ireland s Eye.
Medical policy also adjusted through business structure, strengthen teeth and orthodontic implants to promote high added-owned business, gross margin will be increased 1.77 percentage points to 46.69 percent. Days with investment research reports, high value-added services will become the future of health care policy content through an important engine of growth, with the increasing popularity of high value-added services, the company s gross margin is expected to further enhance the level.
High-end health care making more and more high-margin value of social capital piece of market cake. Last year, Fosun to accelerate the pace of the layout in the medical industry through equity participation in the United States actively involved in a mutually beneficial manner the high-end medical market. The following Sinopharm Group and Fosun, the recent 39 Pharmaceutical Company Limited, China Resources also said it has signed with the China Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine a letter of intent, the two sides will work together to build medical institutions.
The analysis pointed out that in the country to encourage medical institutions to invest in social capital boom, there will be more and more pharmaceutical companies to invest and build a hospital, extend the industrial chain and seek to maximize profits. With further relaxation of the policy, social capital into other areas of health care services will also be a more positive attitude, the return of the most impressive high-end medical services market will also face increasingly fierce competition in the market.
Asked hospital staking
Pass through the acquisition of policy health policy as a Real Estate Investment Division Housing Management, Chinese Academy of Sciences and China Resources thirty-nine signed a letter of intent to jointly build … … Recently, medical institutions, medical services can be described as investment moves again and again. Many industry analysts believe that the current health care there is a big investment opportunities, especially in hospital, there will be rapid industry growth.
National policy support, high-margin, highly reproducible, easy to expand, attracting industry attention to the main hospital.
Expansion of the proper way
Nanjing Securities researcher Sujin Jiang told reporters, on the whole, the hospital is now also a free competitive industry, not a chain of hospitals to achieve brand dominance. In this pattern, mainly to see the scale of business development, we must actively seek external expansion.
Leading enterprises in hospital through oral health policy, "Central Hospital + branch" model is an example. The Dental Hospital of Hangzhou s General Hospital to use the brand level and sea resources, have opened Qingchun Road Branch, West Branch, University Avenue clinic, the first clinic, clinics and other branch of the East River, occupied Hangzhou oral health care of about 50% market share, and maintain annual revenue growth of more than 20%. Topchoice medical report shows, Hangzhou Stomatology Hospital medical policy through the last year is still the main source of profit growth.
Currently, in addition to Hangzhou Stomatology Hospital, through the policy also owns Kunming Medical Dental Hospital, Dental Hospital of Ningbo, Quzhou Dental Hospital, Dental Hospital, Cangzhou, Yellowstone modern oral, Beijing Beijing towards the mouth, oral cavity and Ninghai oral Jiaxing, eight hospitals. Late last year, but also through participation in health policy from the Kunming government-led restructuring process of the Dental Hospital of Kunming, Kunming Dental Hospital to actively subscribe new shares issued after the reform, and on November 9, 2010 and authorized by the government of Kunming, Kunming, state-owned assets Commission under the Investment Company as Kunming, Kunming Medical Dental Hospital of assets the investor signed the "Kunming oral-cum-hospital system to increase their investment agreement."
Medical policy is not satisfied through no doubt in Hangzhou Stomatology Hospital, "a dominant" internal structure. In order to cultivate the second Hangzhou Stomatology Hospital, through the expansion of more than health care policy, will be included in targeted acquisitions and expansion plans in 2011.
Sujin Jiang said that since the acquisition of Stomatology Hospital of Kunming after the success of health care policy has been explored through the public hospital into a private mode, the future is expected to pass health care policy will stick to the "General Hospital + branch" model. This model has a strong demonstration effect and the company s exclusive on the same type, once the General Hospital to take root in a region, it will form a very strong barriers to entry.
In addition to health care through policy, Ireland Eye, and so Ma Ying-long chain of specialty hospitals in addition to speed up the pace. As of December 31, 2010, Ireland Eye Hospital has been operating a chain of 31, a national chain of hospitals covering 19 provinces (municipalities), the basic form of the chain of increasingly sophisticated network system. In the first quarter, Ireland Eye also acquired the ancient city of Xi an Eye Hospital 66.5% stake in Chongqing increase and expansion of the eye clinic Tracy eyesight, while Ireland Eye Hospital, Nanning completed construction of the project. Since the end of 2008 medical services involved in anorectal Ma Ying Long, currently in Wuhan, Beijing and Nanjing, a total of three anorectal, Nanjing Mayinglong anorectal is still in the preparation period, is expected to be officially opened in May this year. There are analysts estimate that this year Mayinglong can open another one or two hospitals.
For the frenzied expansion of a pharmaceutical industry analyst with Shanghai, told reporters: hospital competition, reputation is the key, but also note that the rate of expansion. "Open a new hospital, when little or no opportunity to make money. The acquisition of the hospital has been in operation, then money will be faster, but requires the management of capital to make some adjustments, pay attention to integration issues."
Investment to expand
"The main driving force is the hospital policy-oriented; power lies in the development of demographic changes, namely the problem of aging, in need of medical services, the quantity and quality; living standards will lead to health awareness." Sujin Jiang that, in the long run, health care industry is full of opportunities. Because the direction of reform of public hospitals is the introduction of private capital and revitalize the part of the relatively poor performance of public hospitals, will be transformed into private, or non-profit into profit. Thus specialist, private hospitals may be a good opportunity for development, such as ophthalmology, dentistry specialist has such a good prospect.
Major positive current, some medical services subject the company also began to seek to expand style development.
Late last year, medical and Kunming city government through policy state-owned investment companies under SASAC was established through the policy of Kunming Medical Investment Management Co., Ltd., setting up a total size of 20 billion yuan in Kunming, capital funds through the health care policy; in April this year, through health policy and Kunming Chenggong jointly funded by MCH hospitals, the establishment of maternal and child health for the first-class hospital in Southeast Asia, and infertility, high-end medical care, differences in development with the public hospitals. Recently, also acquired through medical policy through housing investment policy, housing policy through the use of real estate investment and long-term accumulation of experience in investment management business, the existing hospital property management company. Real Estate Division, through the establishment of policies for the new hospital and other health care in the future for more medical services to provide a solid investment in the pillars.
Similarly, the recent Chinese Academy of Sciences and Resources thirty-nine cooperation pocketed investor s eye. Although the CR thirty-nine has thirty-nine Brain Hospital, the medical services in the accumulation of a certain amount of management experience, but still weak medical specialist personnel strength, while the Chinese Academy of Sciences has a large number of experienced team of experts, the construction of medical institutions of cooperation, can be described as capital , management and personnel of the powerful combination. Resources thirty-nine on, the construction of Chinese Medicine Hospital, both countries share the dividend policy to encourage the building of Chinese medicine hospitals, but also to promote the sale of the corresponding Chinese medicine products, expand its influence in the field of medicine, has multiple purposes. Analysts pointed out that the respondents from the industry growth rate is concerned, because the general idea of ??health reform is falling drug prices, the prices of medical services, so the acquisition of pharmaceutical companies, the provision of specialist hospital medicines may decrease the hedge a good way.
Chinese medical device market peril
China\\ s economic development process, in 2010, is bound to be a landmark year. This year, under the pressures of China\\ s GDP remained at 10.5% growth, the overall size of the economy than Japan, the largest in the world\\ s second largest economy of the column. As part of the overall economy, China\\ s medical device industry is particularly dramatic momentum, its market size in one fell swoop this year exceeded 100 billion mark, reaching 120 billion yuan, up 23% growth rate for China\\ s overall economic painted a splendid development.
Chinese medical device market\\ s rapid expansion since the reform and opening up first to benefit from the positive performance of macroeconomic fundamentals. At the same time, governments at all levels in recent years is also inseparable from the national medical and health sector support. National statistics show that in 2006, the national health care spending is 132.023 billion yuan, by 2010, this expenditure is increased to 443.9 billion yuan, of which the central government health expenditures amounted to 148.535 billion yuan, local governments spent $ 295.4 billion health care million, respectively, in 2006, 10.76 times and 2.50 times.
In April 2009, the State Council \"on deepening the reform of medical and health,\" and \"medical and health system 2009-2011 to deepen implementation of the program,\" The introduction of these two documents, marking the country\\ s new round of medical reform health official on the agenda. To promote the implementation of new health care reform, the state promised in 2009 to 2011 three years additional invest 850 billion yuan (12.3 billion U.S. dollars) to establish a universal health insurance system from 2010, covering 90% of China\\ s population, while focusing on improve community health services in rural areas and construction of the center. In this backdrop, China\\ s medical device market ushered in an important period of development, the market outlook is excellent. Real market performance does not live up to expectations, and even better than expected. Medical Imaging Market Research dot com platform, in 2010, China\\ s medical imaging equipment sales grew 31%, especially MRI, CT and other large equipment, the growth rate is even more shocking. Throughout the year, MRI product line growth rate of 52% 1.5T product line growth rate of 74%, 3T product line growth rate of 91%, 78% compound annual growth rate superconducting products; high-end CT sales exceeded 100 units, an increase of 66.67%. In addition, in 2010, China\\ s market growth DSA is also very eye-catching product line annual growth rate of 54%, much higher than the percentage increase over the same period in 2009.
Overall, MRI, CT and DSA are just a Chinese medical device market, the tip of the iceberg. Chinese medical device market growth performance in more low-end medical equipment. The data show that in 2010 China\\ s growth rate in the low-end medical equipment up to 30%, significantly higher than the industry average.
China\\ s demand for low-end Yixie rapid growth of new medical reform policy are inseparable. Speed ??up the construction of hospitals and primary health care to shorten the gap between urban and rural areas is the keynote of the new medical reform. To this end, in the primary hospital will naturally become the focus of national financial investment. Ministry of Health statistics show that in 2009 the Central funds will be arranged 20 billion yuan to support construction of nearly 1,000 county-level hospitals, more than 4700 urban and rural primary health care institutions, to improve primary medical condition; the hospital in 2010 will be the primary focus of the year into the most , government at all levels continue to increase investment in health care, national fiscal expenditure on health care budgets 443.9 billion yuan, of which 138.9 billion yuan from the central government is mainly used for the new rural cooperative medical insurance for urban residents and workers, medical aid and other basic medical security system, a total expenditure of 55.6 billion yuan; In addition to the implementation of basic and vital public health services, and support the construction of urban and rural primary health care institutions of the more than 300 million. However, entering 2011, it means that China\\ s new health care reform into the closing of the year. With 850 billion yuan additional investment gradually put in place, we must ask whether the Chinese medical device market has remained robust growth?
To really answer this question, you need to first figure out exactly what the important factors affecting the past few years the development of China\\ s medical device market, and these factors in the coming period will be what changes occur. In addition, we also need to find out whether there will be an important factor to influence the new order to act on the future of China\\ s medical device market growth.
Fundamentally, medical equipment market trends and demographics of a country or region, economic development level, the Government\\ s emphasis on health and social class structure and other factors are closely related. These factors will analyze the following:
First of all, China has 1.3 billion people, accounting for 22% of the world\\ s population. Such a large population base out of the medical needs of the birth is difficult to estimate, and its medical device market in China will be a long-term good in the short term will not change. Moreover, with our aging continues to accelerate the positive impact of the favorable factors will also become increasingly evident. Currently, the country\\ s aging population of about 1.6 million people, about 12% of the total population. 2020 China\\ s elderly population will reach 240 million people, it will be 17.17% of the total population.
Secondly, our country still can accomplish a great deal of important strategic opportunities, the national economy can continue to maintain rapid, healthy and orderly development. This is fundamental to people\\ s livelihood and the future of medical device market growth provides essential financial protection. Only sustained economic development, the Government can be more powerful to give financial support to protect the livelihood of the people. And health care is an important part of people\\ s livelihood.
Thirdly, as a socialist China, the world\\ s most capitalist countries are essentially different. This was reflected in the government health care system in the country has a dominant role can not be shaken. The majority of public hospitals, government financial support for a direct impact on these hospitals for various medical equipment medical equipment, especially large-scale high-end level of demand. In the foreseeable period of time, as public hospitals, basic health care services market will not change the subject. Therefore, the Government\\ s emphasis on health care is a particularly important factor. This factor increased the national level that is commonly referred to as policies and regulations, which include medical insurance for urban employees, urban residents and the new rural cooperative medical insurance system such as a set. We have good reason to believe that in the future, the state of health will be more and more attention. \"Second five\" Plan a prominent bright spot is to protect and improve people\\ s livelihood.
Fourth, although the new medical reform into the wrap, urbanization will slow down, but the country\\ s new rural construction has just begun. China has about 800 million farmers living in rural areas. Since the existence of urban and rural economy, China\\ s vast rural areas is still very backward, very weak infrastructure. Unbalanced development of urban and rural social conflicts caused by social disharmony is increasingly becoming an important factor. To effectively mitigate and ultimately solve this problem, the next state will continue to increase rural and backward areas of support efforts. The current state is stepping up the construction of new countryside is proof. As the population, wide area and stalls and so on, the country\\ s new rural construction will be a long process, but along with this great process, to some extent, China\\ s medical device market will have a worthwhile long-term growth looking forward to pulling the engine.
Finally, the introduction of the policy of our country Shehuibanyi private hospitals and foreign hospitals provide valuable development opportunities. Medical services market in China, private hospitals and foreign hospitals will serve as important market players compete with public hospitals on the same stage. Private hospitals and foreign hospitals in China\\ s real development has just started, or the early spring sun, along with the degree of the Chinese market step by step deeper, private hospitals and foreign hospitals can only be a more favorable environment for development, thus, its development prospects will be more bright. From private hospitals and foreign hospitals, good for the future growth of China\\ s medical device market impact will be limitless.
Above, although the new medical reform has entered a wrap, but the impact of China\\ s medical device market, most of the long-term positive factors will continue to exist, and many also likely to play a more beneficial effect. There will also be joined by new factors. Along with the \"second five\" start, in the foreseeable future quite a long time, these positive factors may well join forces to promote China\\ s medical device market to continue to maintain high growth momentum. However, different from the past, the future market growth driven Yixie more likely to come from low-end medical equipment needs, the main demand is widespread and numerous, the primary hospital and the majority of the emerging private hospitals and foreign hospitals . Perhaps it is for this reason, long-term high-end medical equipment market accounted for multinational giants have to adapt strategies, point the finger at China\\ s primary health care market. Recently, GE Healthcare has launched a comprehensive strategy for the integration of grass-roots level locking \"spring program.\" Other multinational giants, and the local national brands to be outdone, basic health care market can be described as the battle is imminent.
The United States to develop long range magnetic resonance imaging software
_web1.jpg "absorbable sutures")
U.S. researchers have developed a long-range magnetic resonance imaging scanning software, doctors can remotely scan the Internet for patients, those in areas with limited medical conditions can make use of this telemedicine technology to provide convenience for patients.
Researchers in the November issue of the "Radiology" magazine reports that medical scans are an important tool for disease diagnosis, and some special scanning, such as magnetic resonance imaging, heart scans on neonatal demanding operators, must be experienced physician to operate radiation. However, some areas with limited, the lack of high-level radiation scanning expert. University of California at Los Angeles and the "Siemens Medical Solutions" company created in collaboration telemedicine software, an effective solution to this problem. With this software, doctors can log in to your computer through the Internet remote control MRI for patients with off-site remote sensing.
Study leader, University of California at Los Angeles professor of radiology • Paul Finn said he was a total of 30 patients with remote scanning, scan resolution scans and other indicators no less than the field. Finn believes that with the Internet, increasing the speed and reliability, remote scanning technology will continue to strive for excellence, to overcome the barriers of distance off-site treatment.
Massachusetts Institute of Technology developed a low cost of proton beam radiotherapy equipment
————————————————– ——————————
According to the Boston "Global" A week ago, U.S. Massachusetts, Tufts New England Medical Center plans to build a more current cost many times lower proton beam radiation therapy device, this medical center has made to the state related to the construction management application .
Proton beam radiation therapy is a highly recognized means of radiotherapy, because of its focus and better for the relatively limited damage to healthy tissue.
Boston "Global" reported, the health agency decided to use this proton-beam technology provided by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, allegedly, this technology is expected to enter the market in 2008, the system s price is only $ 19 million, than the current conventional proton radiotherapy system is many times cheaper.
Tufts New England Medical Center for radiation therapy oncologist Dr. David Wazer, we will become the first state hospital using this equipment, be able to use proton radiation therapy is the dream of every radiation physician, but conventional proton radiotherapy equipment very expensive, so this ideal met with great restrictions.
According to reports, the Centre plans to install such devices within the 2009 patients admitted after 2009, the number of treated patients developed 253, 2012, that number rose to 356.
MIT has been selected in the state of this proton radiotherapy equipment manufacturers.
Home said CT magnetic resonance imaging examination have their own advantages
Modern medicine can not do without laboratory tests, but the face of those numerous projects, many people confused. To help us to understand, from the beginning, open edition "Sunshine Check" section, to introduce a common clinical laboratory and inspection-related knowledge.
In clinical work, doctors often encounter such problems: "The doctor gave me a CT, magnetic resonance imaging is best heard, I can not do NMR", "NMR prices are, I can not to be CT"? In fact, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) have their own advantages, can not replace each other.
MRI and CT imaging principle is not the same. CT is used to penetrate the human body to X-ray imaging; MRI is to use the human body contains some of the signals emitted proton imaging.
CT examination can basically be used for all parts of the body, due to internal bleeding, calcification, bone, fat and more sensitive to air, especially for the observation of bleeding lesions or calcification, bone lesions (such as fractures, bone tumors and bone degeneration) so, check in the lungs, abdominal examination, it is also an advantage. In addition, CT imaging is fast, especially for the heart and great vessels of the show, of course, this requires a certain amount to the intravenous injection of iodine in the contrast agent.
MRI examination in the soft tissue superior to CT, used for neurological diseases (including stroke, inflammation, cancer, spinal cord inflammation, spinal tumors, vertebral lesions, etc.) and the abdomen, pelvis, soft tissue lesions. In some parts, CT and MRI examination of the joint use can improve the sensitivity, such as soft tissue calcification, but bleeding is suspected.
MRI and CT have enough. CT s biggest drawback is that radiation damage, but as long as the dose does not exceed the state regulations, and the attention to protection, is safe. In addition, CT will be more severe in some parts of the artifacts of interference, such as the posterior fossa (back of the head).
MRI, although not radiation, the contrast is high, but the biggest drawback is the relatively long examination time, so the requirements of the subjects is relatively high. In the inspection, was seized parts must not move, especially the abdomen, the heart of the inspection required in patients with breath 5-20 seconds range, otherwise ineffective.
CT is not absolute contraindications, in addition to pregnant women and newborns should weigh, and at a good radiological protection of the premise, suitable for almost all people. If allergic to iodine, it can not be enhanced CT scan.
MRI is not the taboo disease, but with pacemakers, metal prosthetic valve patients must not do, the body has aneurysm clips, vascular stents, artificial joints, metallic fixation of patients can not do, unless special instructions on the materials indicate acceptable MRI. In addition, because magnetic resonance imaging examination time is longer, noisy, for patients who can not cope with, such as children, disoriented, claustrophobic patients, failure to take measures to calm, not do MRI.
New treatment for diabetes monitoring: computer monitoring of blood glucose concentration
Cambridge University researchers are testing a new treatment for diabetes monitoring, real-time monitoring of diabetes through computer blood glucose levels, insulin injections in time for the patient, thereby reducing the risk of complications of diabetes onset.
According to the British "Times" reported on the 6th, the instrument used to monitor treatment of patients implanted subcutaneously detector, real-time monitoring of blood glucose concentration, re-use of data to wireless devices to the computer, the computer calculates the patient s insulin dose needs to add can be injected insulin to patients in time. This will greatly reduce the risk of complications of diabetes onset.
One of the researchers Dai Weidong Grid said: "The use of computing blood glucose levels is important because diabetes blood sugar levels may fall during the night."
The researchers also said that the future use of this instrument can be miniaturized computer in order to carry the patient to use worn on the wrist.
Reported that the researchers plan from January next year to monitor the treatment of this new instrument for clinical trials.
Singapore s success in developing new cancer diagnostic
WASHINGTON National University of Singapore has successfully developed a new cancer diagnostic, it is very sensitive to early cancer organization, check with high accuracy.
The diagnostic use of infrared fluorescence imaging, can be found in cancer patients with early disease symptoms, thereby greatly increasing the chance of rehabilitation of patients. When the doctor to the new cancer diagnostic probe placed in the tiny parts of the body subjects, the probe emitted infrared radiation in a unique position on the subjects, if the area of cancer, the cancer cells will fluoresce, the doctor Accordingly, it can accurately diagnose the illness.
Cancer is a major killer of contemporary, mainly in the elderly. Currently, the use of the instrument to check out the head, neck, skin cancer and cervical cancer, etc., etc.
In addition, the research team is studying the design of smaller, more flexible endoscopic probe, the probe can enter the human body in order to check such as lung cancer or gastric cancer.
Norwegian experts say smoking does not reduce to reduce the harmful effects of
OSLO: Norwegian researchers recently published report, want to reduce risk, avoid prematurely die from smoking-related diseases, drug addicts have to completely quit smoking, only to reduce smoking to improve health help.
Reported that researchers in Norway 51 000 men and women for as long as 20 years of follow-up observations to examine the reduction of smoking on the heart disease, lung cancer and other smoking-related effects of cancer death.
The purpose of this study was to determine the amount of smoking addiction is greater reduced by half or more after the health improvement. Respondents in the program began at the age of 20 to 34 years old, in the next 20 years, they have received three times the risk of cardiovascular disease risk assessment.
The researchers found that in the cardiovascular disease, cancer and other causes of premature death, the great and keep smoking addiction and the smoking habits of halving the proportion of people without significant difference. Conducted for men and women is consistent with the findings.
Normal column: the challenge of health care reform process
October 20, held in Kingdee International Software Group s 2011 "Chinese management? Global Forum", Kingdee Technology Co., Ltd. sponsored health care sub-forum was held. Forum to "efficiently manage, co-medical success" as the theme, more than the medical industry experts on the new medical reform during the health care industry to achieve efficient management carried out in depth.
Medical Technology Co., Ltd., general manager of Kingdee column often in his speech in the process, focusing on analysis of the company s current challenges of health care reform process.
He said that since 2009 the State Council promulgated the new medical reform plan, the Government has increased the medical industry, strengthen the supervision of the medical industry behavior, the rational allocation of medical resources, the reform of health care management, and ultimately want to solve the current China " medical treatment is difficult and expensive ", the establishment of universal access to basic health care protection system. However, at present this reform process, we also face a lot of challenges.
First, we can see that the Government and the department is facing new medical reform to speed up the implementation of the policies in the system and solve the problem of uneven distribution of medical resources challenges; followed by hospitals facing increased health care quality and medical services, strengthening hospital management improve the hospital s overall competitive strength of the challenge; last hope in the medical treatment of patients during the medical resources to get more and more clearly aware of their own in the process of doctor assumed a fee for each spent where to challenge.
In the new medical reform process, Kingdee medical and hospital management and hospital to face the challenges of hospital performance. Kingdee launched the hospital s comprehensive medical operations platforms, with leading IT technology driven, with the medical industry and innovation management practices, introduced to better manage the hospital personnel, financial, material, better adapted to the requirements of the new medical reform overall solution to lead innovation in the value of the entire medical industry. Kingdee will also use medical technology advantages, the advantages in the management of business through mergers and acquisitions and alliances for the health sector to establish the ecological chain system, continue to strengthen and expand the company. August 1, Hui Tong Kingdee Computer Co., Ltd. and Guangdong were integrated, after integration Kingdee built digital hospital care, the hospital integrated operating platform, a complete regional health information technology solutions to effectively help the rational allocation of medical institutions in China resources and improve the hospital management performance, to achieve effective coordination.
Kingdee medical innovation in the Chinese management research group based on the concept, put forward China s medical management of innovation framework and philosophy. Innovation in Chinese medical management ideology, scientific and effective aspects of effective innovation and integration. Chinese medical management model is Kingdee new medical reform health care in the context for the new mission, but also the company s future direction and vision. Kingdee hoped Chinese medical management through innovation, to ensure that China s new round of medical reform to succeed, we also hope that China s medical management concept innovation in China has been promoting a new round of medical reform and help.
Kingdee has now fully equipped to care hospitals and health institutions to provide integrated solutions to the ability of medical services. We will be past the hospital in front of the business management and the new medical reform situation requires operational management and effective for the convergence and pull through, we are the hospital s business management and control and for the hospital internal control, financial, material management and control together, the hospital information technology into a real hospital.
Let us work together to create a Chinese medical management of innovation, as the building blocks of medical information.
New medical reform plan will be a four-year medical and pharmaceutical health care linkage

The day of the birth of the Medical Advisory Committee to change the positioning of medical reform program is the commitment to consultation and demonstration, the local health reform practices research, analysis assessing the effect of health reform, suggestions and ideas as well as public information.
As health care reform one of 36 members of the Advisory Committee, Professor of Peking University s Guanghua School of Management, China Economic Research Center Director Liu Guoen Health attended the two meetings, and participate in the "second five" medical reform draft plan consultation.

Sun Zhigang was held August 18 in the "2011 China Health Forum," revealed that the next five years to promote health care reform need to focus on five tasks: establish universal health insurance system with Chinese characteristics; expand deepen the reform of public hospitals; prominence to training training; further promote drug production and distribution sector reform; continue to enhance the level of the equalization of public health services.
These signals show that the path the next few years, health reform is gradually clear.
Li Keqiang: medical reform "bow is no turning back."
In early 2009, the State Council issued the recent focus on medical and health system implementation plan (2009-2011). The industry as a portfolio of new health care reform, including five key reforms: accelerating basic medical security system, the initial establishment of a national essential drug system, improve primary health care service system, promote the equalization of basic public health services and promote public hospitals reform.
Li Keqiang, "Seeking Truth" published an article on the new three-year evaluation of health care reform, "said the five key reform measures recently put in place gradually, marking the initial task of health care reform has made important progress." As a universal basic health care to benefit about 95% of the country population, the grass-roots organizations drug prices down 30% on average, three new medical reform central government funds 331.8 billion yuan and so on.
However, Li also pointed out that health reform also faces many difficulties and challenges, mainly in: long-standing shortage of basic medical insurance, the total lack of medical resources and configuration unreasonable, urban and regional imbalance in health development, talent is weak and "drugs make doctors" and other conflicts still exist, medical treatment is difficult and expensive problem is rather prominent. Meanwhile, progress remains uneven around the reform, medical reform policies and some local funds may not be implemented, mechanisms and system construction is lagging behind.
Li Keqiang said, "bow is no turning back." Medical reform has now entered deep water, deep-seated contradictions touched more and more increasingly difficult. Reform, such as riding a boat behind, and only continued forward, in order to consolidate and develop the results of the previous stage of reform, achieve greater progress. To explore health care reform must be out of this worldwide problem of Chinese-style solution to the road.
Scholars: should realize health insurance, medical and pharmaceutical linkage
New health care reform is just a three-year mandate to complete summary, go to "deep water" and the road will be what health reform as a major force point? In Liu Guoen view, is still the most important reform of public hospitals. Through the reform of public hospitals "in increasing vitality, plus push" to achieve. Within the system that is perfect the mechanisms of activation by the medical staff motivation and energy to improve the effectiveness of the service capacity. "The most important is to implement an independent public corporate governance structure of the hospital, president of the cadres from the business into a professional manager, the responsibility, authority and clearly defined through the contract form, activate the power." In the outside, you need the government to optimize social Office of Medical conditions, health care professional the whole society platform, so that medical staff have more choices, can facilitate the free movement of competition among hospitals, in turn, will also play a catalytic role in the reform of public hospitals.
Peking University s China Center for Economic Research Li Ling, deputy director also believes that the next few years, health reform should be the main point is to accelerate the force of public hospital reform, from the pilot into a fully open, and resolve to hold down prices, excessive medical treatment and other issues. Ling said the new medical reform more than two years, the biggest effect is basically to achieve full coverage health insurance, but the only solution was to pay for health insurance problems, the hospital is providing services side, is the core strength. However, in recent years, the reform of public hospitals is still lagging behind, the mechanisms and medical benefits or reduce health care has not been checked over. Medical institutions operating system is still built on the expanding volume of medical services, such as more drugs, more checks, in which case, the actual mechanism of health care over health care in the hospital for further stimulus, because the more services, from social security in can get the money more. Now to really provide appropriate medical care, the right medicine, your doctor can really solve the problem. The next step must be to achieve health insurance, medical and pharmaceutical linkage, to form the three together, otherwise people are still not affordable.
