You can find a family doctor at your doorstep to see a doctor, take medication, and even reimburse for medical insurance. Recently, Zhou Shujun, a villager from Group 4, Zhuge Village, Gaotai Town, Qingshen County, Meishan City, Sichuan Province, arrived at the village clinic early in the morning for a blood pressure test and medication. Zhou Shujun has been suffering from hypertension for many years. In order to reimburse his medical expenses through medical insurance, he had to go to a town health center a few kilometers away for medical treatment. Since the village clinic at his doorstep was included in the designated scope of medical insurance by the county medical insurance bureau last year, there is no need to go out of the village to check and prescribe drugs and directly seek the contracted family doctor. Our village doctor, Teacher Zhou, calls me to go to the clinic to take my blood pressure every once in a while. If there are any problems, please let me know immediately and tell me what to pay attention to. I signed an agreement and don't need to pay extra for the medicine. There are also four free physical examinations every year, all of which are done by the doctors in the town, "Zhou Shujun said. In order to solve the "last mile" problem of medical insurance reimbursement, Meishan City started to assign medical insurance institution codes to village clinics last year to provide drug security and reimbursement for patients with "two diseases" (hypertension and diabetes). By the end of last year, a total of 227 village clinics in the city had been included in the designated scope of medical insurance, covering 225 administrative villages and providing medical insurance reimbursement services for more than 30000 people. Luo Shuyi, Director of the Qingshen County Medical Insurance Bureau, said that the county actively promotes the integrated construction of medical security at the county, township, and village levels by providing contracted services for "two diseases" family doctors. The county has invested 358800 yuan to include all 38 village clinics in the designated medical security service scope. At the same time, explore the inclusion of gout and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in family doctor signing services, and continuously expand the scope of family doctor "chronic disease" management signing services. The further improvement of the medical insurance service network has effectively mobilized the enthusiasm of Meishan residents to participate in insurance. As of the end of last year, the number of urban and rural residents participating in insurance contributions in the city reached 2.4587 million in 2023, surpassing the same period last year by 62100 people. In addition, the hospitalization rate of primary diagnosed patients with the "two diseases" in the city has shown a downward trend, and the effective control rate of the disease has increased by an average of 10 percentage points.
