Check-in at the Hospital: The First Surgery Shocked the Nation! Chapter 114 - 88: A Tier 2 Hospital in Shock, Citywide Obser
Over the phone, after Liang Donglai explained, Qin Feng finally understood.
It turned out that the other party had first called Jinling City First Hospital, and found Liang Donglai there, only to realize that the surgery had actually been perford by him.
Then Liang Donglai personally made a call back to the hospital on the other side and explained everything clearly to the patient, which is why they contacted Jiangcheng City First Hospital.
"Younger Brother Qin, I briefly reviewed the patient’s dical records and believe there’s great hope, which is why I had them reach out to you."
Liang Donglai said with a smile,
"However, let inform you first, the patient isn’t very well-off, so the flying knife fee won’t be too high, probably between 5,000 to 10,000."
Upon hearing this, Qin Feng couldn’t help but shake his head.
However, in fact, for a cardiac tumor surgery, a flying knife fee of 5,000 is indeed quite low.
Since this is already a high-difficulty level 4 surgery, any mistake could put the patient in danger.
Conversely, if the patient ca to Jiangcheng or went to Jinling, the travel, plus the registration, hospitalization, surgery, etc., would actually cost several tis, if not dozens of tis more!
If this money is to be accounted for properly, the local hospital needs to list it, subtract a portion, and what remains is his share.
That ans if they negotiate a flying knife fee of 5,000, the actual take-ho might only be around 3,000.
"Don’t worry, I’ll review the dical records first and communicate with the hospital and the patient there."
Qin Feng replied.
After chatting briefly, he hung up.
This flying knife fee of several thousand doesn’t even compare to a fly’s leg for Qin Feng.
After all, with each surgery completed, the system rewards him based on difficulty, and he doesn’t lack money.
However,
the issue of the flying knife fee brought to mind sothing that happened not long ago.
A patient in Hexi Province needed surgery, and the hospital inford the family that due to the surgery’s difficulty, they had invited an expert from Beijing to perform the surgery, requiring a flying knife expert fee of 10,000.
Both sides agreed on the price because if they had gone to Beijing, the cost would be at least ten tis more.
Moreover, locally, whether it’s hospitalization or surgery, the expenses are much, much cheaper.
However, an incident still occurred.
After the successful surgery, when the hospital collected the 10,000 cash prepared by the patient’s family, they were secretly fild.
As a result, the family exposed the video and reported the hospital for overcharging!
In the end, both the involved doctor and the hospital personnel who helped collect and transfer the money were suspended, and the 10,000 fee was fully refunded.
This incident, once reported, instantly stirred a massive wave online,
So said the hospital and the flying knife doctor are ruthless, turning life-saving missions into shady transactions.
But most people online supported the involved doctors and hospital, considering it fair and reasonable that doctors travel laboriously to perform surgeries for just the basic fee of 300.
Is that fair?
Moreover, the flying knife fee had been previously agreed upon, yet using exposure as a way to escape paynt is despicable!
The patient’s family is downright disgusting!
In no ti, countless voices turned to criticism.
Though the dical community is discussing and reforming this conflict, the official announcent regarding the incident had already been made, with no turning back.
So during this period, experts from all over basically aren’t willing to perform flying knife services in other places.
In fact, the expert flying knife fee is considered a default rule.
Though it’s not ford into a specific system, if patients invite experts from elsewhere to perform surgery at ho, shouldn’t they pay a labor fee?
Qin Feng believes, the responsibility shouldn’t fall on the doctor; if the hospital forces the collection of flying knife fees, they should be accountable.
But it’s unjust that the expert who painstakingly cos to perform flying knife operations is also suspended.
However, Qin Feng doesn’t mind, as he wasn’t planning to keep the few thousand or ten thousand at all.
It’s just that this matter definitely needs rectification!
"Hopefully reforms will co soon."
...
Next, Qin Feng spent an entire week communicating with the hospital and the patient, confirming the patient’s current condition and the hospital’s facilities.
This patient’s situation is much better than Xie Jianjun’s, as the tumor is benign and can be removed simply.
If it were a malignant tumor, once cancer cells spread, the purpose of surgery would only be to delay the deadly progression of the cancer, with no chance of cure.
Subsequently, the surgery date and itinerary were confird, and the timing for both sides was arranged.
During this process, Qin Feng also had several video consultations with the administration of the other hospital, two departnt heads from cardiothoracic surgery, and the patient.
Upon seeing how young Qin Feng was, the patient’s family had substantial doubts.
However, when the cardiothoracic surgery head learned of Qin Feng’s identity, he almost shouted out with excitent!
Even at forty or fifty years old, Qin Feng’s reputation in the dical field is well-known.
Especially regarding that leukemia transplant matter, its buzz on the internet hasn’t faded yet.
After discovering that Qin Feng had previously perford nurous extrely high-difficulty heart surgeries, including arterial dissections and even heart replacents, which they couldn’t possibly handle, admiration was evident.
The patient’s family was utterly bewildered, wondering if this young man who looked about their son’s age was truly that capable.
However, one sentence from the head on the other side completely dispelled their worries.
"If even Director Qin Feng can’t cure it, then there aren’t many experts nationwide who could."
The weight of that statent was clear to everyone listening.
