Payment

Medical Resource Abuse

Equality? Equity?

No difference on insurance premium between different income households.

Solution

  • Distinguish the insurance premium among differences.  
    • Other income would be charge another insurance fee, like rental expenses.
  • Total health payment system (健保總額支付制度)
    • Health department provide a static amount of money , instead of take all the expenditure.

Nursing Worker

Why we need nursing worker in Taiwan?

In general, the percentage of nurses and patients is

1:6

 

Increasing of this ratio means the increasing of mortality rate.

(More one patient a nurse need to take care, the mortality rate of these patients will increase by 7%)

Nursing Worker

  • Recruitment for hospitalized person
  • Take care of daily life needs of patients.

Nurse

  • Regular worker in hospital
  • Take care of Injection, and the condition of patients.
  • Both require license
  • Cooperate in hospital.
