Ways to improve hospital service

Recently, the Ministry of Health launched a pilot project to reform the salaries of hospital staff. We hope this round of medical reform will make the government reinterpret its relationship with hospitals, says an article in Changjiang Times. Excerpt:

The latest round of the Ministry of Health's reform is aimed at making medical services more efficient. Many private hospitals have already taken steps to do so. Readjusting the staff's salaries, promoting medical services, renewing facilities and redistributing medical resources, are part of this round of medical reform.

For quite some time, government departments have been exercising control over public medical institutions. The monopoly enjoyed by these facilities has prevented them from worrying about their share of problems.
