In the film, Moore uses seemingly casual jokes and satire to directly attack the soft underbelly of American medical insurance - fairness. Young people who stitched up their wounds with a wry smile, old couples who moved into a poor daughter’s family, and firefighters who had to submit applications to get help after being regarded as heroes, the film nakedly revealed the injustice of the American medical insurance system to the people at the bottom. The deepest impression is that the doctor who signed an unknown number of deny expresses his deep regret, the indifferent expression of the manager of the medical insurance company who rejected so many lives because of the seal of his name, and the need to call an ambulance first. The ridiculous scenario of calling the insurance company to apply. The commercial medical insurance system in the United States is not a fundamental mistake. It has brought about the high efficiency of medical personnel and made an indelible contribution to the leading medical research field in the United States. What's wrong is that its government regulation is ineffective. Why can't patients with diseases buy commercial insurance, and the conditions are so harsh that they are too fat and too thin? Why do you ask the insured to make a phone call before calling an ambulance when his life is dying? Why can the medical insurance company arbitrarily instruct doctors to deny the insured necessary tests on those applications in order to save money? In my opinion, compared to the commercial insurance system that exists widely all over the world, what lies behind these shady stories is the government's ineffective supervision. Can't the commercial insurance system expand the insured population? If there is no such harsh threshold, if employers share more expenses accordingly, if medical insurance companies are truly non-profit, they can put the health of the insured in the first place, so that the insured can get the examination and treatment that they deserve, even in Under the principle of voluntariness, will Americans who have received health first and risk education since childhood not take the initiative to participate in insurance? Every system and plan always has its advantages and disadvantages. There is no perfect plan in this world, and some are the continuous improvement of the implementer. A good system plan needs a good implementer. Singapore's system has few criticisms not only because it is a small country, but also because it has encountered problems and is constantly improving and supplementing. In the United States, every leader seems to hold the banner of health care reform. Hillary was eventually bought off, so what about Obama? Under the manipulation behind those wealthy interest groups, how far can he go on the road of medical reform? American healthcare reform needs not only a new system, but also a truly independent government for the people.
When watching the movie, it reminds me of China. The patient with kidney failure knelt on the ground and begged the doctor not to help him on dialysis because his family could not afford it; the ambulance drove to the patient's house and saw that his family was poor and left; the young doctor was gradually numb because he was trained to treat poor patients; There are countless classmates who are arguing with the medical insurance office because they are not reimbursed by medical insurance. If the inside story of China's medical insurance is revealed, it is estimated to be a history of blood and tears that will stir the world, but there is no such thing as Moore in the context of China. of people. China's application is to imitate Germany's social insurance model, which should be more advanced than the United States, but China's fairness and efficiency have not yet reached. Compared with the United States, China is still a developing country. It has a huge population but does not have the fantastic per capita GDP of the United States. It has gone through the war of resistance against Japan. As a reborn country, we should understand it. But understanding does not mean compromise. The social security model we choose is different from that of the United States. Its original intention is to ensure that people in the civilian class of the society can enjoy basic medical security. The people at the bottom of the United States cannot receive good security because of its commercial insurance model. The original intention is related, but the United States has more sufficient financial resources than China to provide medical assistance to the poor, so what about China? Why does China, whose original intention is to ensure that all people enjoy basic medical security, is even more tragic than the people at the bottom of the United States?
Going back to Moore's film to find the answer, although Moore exaggerated the medical insurance in the United Kingdom, Canada and France from a biased angle, it seems too cunning, but there are some thought-provoking words in it. A former British politician once said that democracy is the core, and democracy is to allow the poor to have the right to vote. The high-level officials of many countries do not want their citizens to be confident and educated, because this will make They are out of control. Perhaps the problem in China today is not just the government’s ineffective supervision, but the lack of channels to listen to the voices of the people. The American Moore cannot appear in China. Just like Chairman Mao himself once said, if Lu Xun had Living up to now is either in silence or in prison. The implementer of a good system needs not only one person, but also the opinions of more people. The people who have the deepest understanding of the good and bad of social security are not those government officials who have public medical care or potential "private doctors", nor those who The wealthy who bought expensive commercial insurance will not worry about the next life, but these people living at the bottom. Now, more and more people who are selected as deputies to the National People's Congress and those who convey the voice of the people have changed from working people to stars and big entrepreneurs. Isn't China repeating the mistakes of the United States? For today's China, perhaps true democracy is what the government and medical reform need most.
Finally, I thought it might be time to sigh about the impact of being a health insurance on medical staff. As a medical student in a medical school, although most of us will not embark on the path of a doctor after prevention, we know better than others the bitterness of being a medical staff. Those of our classmates who will become doctors of the future, they all came to this campus with the help of life-saving and respect for doctors. We can clearly see the persistence in their eyes every time they read the medical student oath. But what is the current medical environment like? It was the patient's family who refused to sign because of distrust. The doctor could only watch the patient die. It was the young doctors who looked at the dying patient outside the door with sympathy but did not dare to save it. It was the clinical teacher who was exhausted after a few night shifts. On the podium, he said with a wry smile, "It's better if you don't study clinical practice. The current medical environment... The bitterness contained in the lingering voice is self-evident. The role of medical insurance should be to create a fair medical environment for doctors, so that doctors can treat every equal life regardless of the rich and the poor. But the fact is that life is divided into three, six and nine classes because you have money and you don't have money. It's not the doctor's fault, they don't want to save the life without that, but they are also human, they will get sick in the future, and their relatives will also get sick. In such an insecure society, the whole family is waiting for them to raise them. The situation obliterated them. In the United States, you can get a lot of funding to do the world's top medical experiments and research, while in the United Kingdom you can save a patient regardless of wealth What students expect is that medical insurance can make it a multiple choice question.
