There were more than 2000 Union Medical College Hospitals in China, and only three were true

2022-02-24

It seems that everything can be copied. There are Huaqiangbei in the mobile phone industry, and high imitation Putian Series in shoes, clothes, bags and bags. Identifying genuine and fake cosmetics is also like playing the most difficult "find difference". But what many people don't know is that the hospital that each of us will go to in this life may also have a fake version. In the past, there were about 2000 "Union Medical College Hospitals" in China, but there were only three officially recognized orthodox Union Medical College hospitals [1]. Walking into a "Xiehe Hospital" casually is like a cat falling into Schrodinger's box. He doesn't know whether he will die or live. He is waiting for his reincarnation of Hua Tuo or an unlicensed quack. When choosing a hospital, we should start from seeing the name of the hospital. The famous hospital you went to may be fake Jin Yong's martial arts Jianghu has "Eastern evil and Western poison, southern emperor and Northern beggar's magic power", while in China's medical circles, there are "Eastern Qilu, Western China, southern Xiangya, northern Concord and Chinese Tongji". But the fame of the hospital also makes some unknown small hospitals use their brains to "rub the heat" by borrowing the brand names of these well-known hospitals. "Tongji Hospital" and "Union Hospital" all over the country once bloomed everywhere. In 2007, more than 50 hospitals across the country called themselves "Concorde". Later, this number increased to about 2000 [1] [2]. Therefore, in February 2021, the state market supervision and Administration issued a document to check and clean up the private medical institutions using well-known hospital brands such as "Xiehe", "Huashan", "Tongji", "West China", "Xiangya", "Qilu" and "Tongren" [3]. Many "fake" hospitals named by the policy have been cancelled or renamed. Sky eye survey shows that the false "Union Medical College Hospital" in China has almost disappeared. Among the existing hospitals, 157 hospitals have changed their names from "Xiehe" to other names, and only one hospital in Xinjiang has "Xiehe" in its name. At present, there are no private hospitals with "Huashan" and "Qilu" in their names. There are only two or three private hospitals with "West China" and "Xiangya", while there are eight or nine with "Tongren" and "Tongji". However, some hospitals are still playing the edge ball tirelessly. For the well-known hospital brands such as "Renji", "Ruijin", "Changgeng" and "Zhongshan", which are not directly mentioned in the document, the number of fake hospitals increases instead of decreasing. For example, among the existing hospitals, 31 take "Renji" as their former name, while 65 take it as their current name, which has fully doubled. There is also a hospital in Sichuan, which used to be called "Xiehe", but now it is called "Changgeng". The registered capital is only 310000, and it may not be able to buy even a medical equipment. Geographically, the existing counterfeit hospitals are mainly distributed in Hubei, Jiangsu and Yunnan. When naming these hospitals, they often deliberately pretend to be well-known local hospitals. For example, there are several West China hospitals in Sichuan and many Tongji hospitals in Wuhan. Many people who do not know the truth may mistakenly regard these fake hospitals as "West China divided into West China" and "Tongji divided into West China". Naming is just the beginning of fake hospital marketing. In Hebei, the cancelled original "Dingzhou Union Medical College Hospital" once pasted a logo in the outpatient Hall of the hospital, claiming to be a "National Union Medical College brand chain hospital". It brazenly referred to itself and Beijing Union Medical College Hospital as "Union Medical College", which can be called "touching porcelain on the moon" [4]. In 2019, a pregnant woman came to the hospital for examination and was induced to have an operation. The final operation cost was as high as 13000, which was six times higher than that of general public hospitals [1]. Beijing Union Medical College Hospital has to come forward for many times to emphasize that only the Union Medical College Affiliated Hospital of Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of science and technology and the Union Medical College Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University have origin with Beijing Union Medical College [5]. Between true and false Concord, there is a Milky Way galaxy Famous hospital brands are often falsely claimed, in the final analysis, because their medical level is generally recognized. Like Peking Union Medical College Hospital, which is often falsely named, it is almost an insurmountable "legend" in Chinese hospitals. According to the 2020 edition of the ranking list of Chinese hospitals released by Fudan University, Peking Union Medical College Hospital ranks first in the comprehensive ranking of hospitals in China, and has ranked first for many consecutive years. Of the 48 departments in the hospital, 29 have the highest reputation in the country [6]. In addition, Beijing Union Medical College Hospital is also good at solving all kinds of difficult and miscellaneous diseases. According to the catalogue of the first batch of rare diseases released in 2018, Beijing Union Medical College Hospital basically has the ability to diagnose and treat 121 kinds of rare diseases included in the catalogue [7]. There are also two other hospitals belonging to the "Xiehe Department", which are also among the top 100 hospitals in the comprehensive ranking [6]. You know, according to the data of the National Health Commission, there are more than 36000 hospital institutions in the country [8]. It is extremely difficult to achieve the achievement of ranking in the top 100 among so many hospitals. Compared with the "false Concord", the real Concord Hospital has never lacked patients, and there is no need to use advertising to promote itself. In 2020, the annual operation volume of Peking Union Medical College Hospital was 36697, equivalent to more than 100 operations a day [9]. In addition to the "Xiehe Hospital", hospitals such as West China Hospital of Sichuan University and Huashan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University, which are often pretended, are also at the top of the list of Chinese hospitals all year round [6]. These hospitals often do not collapse in all disciplines, and they can also have multiple specialties. For example, Huashan Hospital is not only good at dermatology and neurology, but also its infectious disease department ranks first in the country [6], while Shanghai Ruijin Hospital is famous for its burn department in the world. In 1958, it pioneered the successful treatment of large-area burn patients in the world [10]. There is also the West China Stomatological Hospital of Sichuan University, which is famous for its stomatology. As the first stomatological hospital in China, it ranks first in the national stomatological ranking all year round [11]. In 2020, the highest score of the science department of Stomatology major of Sichuan University in the province reached 690, which is only four or five points lower than that of Qingbei [12]. Their strength is largely due to the accumulation of history. Just those famous hospital brands themselves have a great origin. For example, Peking Union Medical College Hospital has been established for more than 100 years. Its predecessor was the "Union Medical College" founded by British and American people who came to China in the Qing Dynasty, and "union" is a Chinese translation of "union" [13]. Tongji Hospital, formerly known as Shanghai German medical school founded by German doctor Erich Baolong in 1907, was later renamed Tongji German medical school, "Tongji" means to help each other in the same boat [14]. In the final analysis, those fake hospitals can copy only their names, not their strength and history. If you don't follow the high imitation, there are other naming routines For ordinary private hospitals, the high imitation route is no longer easy to follow, and they don't have a hundred years of history to stack buffs for themselves. How to choose the name of this hospital? After analyzing nearly 30000 private hospitals in Tianyan survey, we found that hospital naming actually has an obvious preference as naming newborns. "People", "health", "safety", "faith", "love" and "beauty" are the favorite words in the name of private hospitals. After these keywords are arranged and combined, they all sound very sunny and positive. Many hospitals have "benefiting the people", "benefiting the people" and "serving the people" in their names, just like "Zihao", "Zihao" and "Zihao" in infants, which make people confused. Hospitals in the name of "benevolence", "fraternity" and "fraternity" are also all over the country, trying to convince patients of the humanistic care of the hospital. Interestingly, just like the "Wanghao milk" and "haiyisi shampoo" often available in Township stores, many private hospitals are named "harmony", "harmony" and "harmony", which are disguised as high imitation of Xiehe Hospital. Once a "Union Hospital" in a certain place in Shandong, it is now called the union hospital. There is also a hospital in Gansu Province, which has used the name of "Xiehe" for nearly 10 years. Now it is called harmony hospital. In addition to taking the positive sunshine route, some hospitals like to take the "high-end wind" and name themselves "international", "Huaxia" and "century". Some of these hospitals are really strong. For example, the scale of an international medical center in Shaanxi is comparable to that of a public third class hospital, and the level of ear plastic surgery department is the world's leading. Some hospitals will give themselves "foreign names", such as "angel", "Maria", "Edward" and "Apollo". If you study carefully, you will find that many hospitals called "Maria" are mainly engaged in gynecology, and those called "Apollo" specialize in andrology. It is worth mentioning that more than 80% of private hospitals are Putian Department hospitals [15]. According to China Youth Daily and other media reports, Putian Department has four families of "Chen, Zhan, Lin and Huang", and the names of hospitals under different families have their own characteristics [16] [17]. For example, the Zhan family controls many "Maria Maternity Hospitals". The Lin family's hospital love is named "fraternity", "benevolence" and "Apollo", while the Chen family owns many "Huaxia hospitals". Although some of these Putian hospitals have the name of beautiful and advanced, they may have the problems of incomplete qualification and arbitrary charging. Therefore, for a hospital, there is no so-called "hospital as its name". Although there are conscience hospitals in private hospitals, they cannot be screened by name, not to mention some Shanzhai hospitals keen on marketing. Trusting the name and advertisement of the hospital may become the "money boy" of the unscrupulous hospital, and even die in the end. Choosing a hospital can be justified by the level of doctors, the qualification of departments and the scale of the hospital, and the name is almost the least important factor. reference material: [1] Yuan Ting, Ma Xiaohui (2019).
