When the Doctor Uses A Hack-Chapter 742: Legal and Reasonable but Inconsiderate (Extra for Alliance Hierarch hushengayi 2)

This was Chen Cang's greatest sigh over the years!

Going to Mingcheng Hospital was not a waste of time for him because there, Chen Cang learned many things that public hospitals didn't teach.

That was the placebo effect.

Luo Zhou looked puzzled, "But this is also for the good of the patients, right? Medication itself comes with side effects."

Zhang Chun took over from Chen Cang, "Luo Zhou, don't you understand? Let me explain it to you!

If you say it like that, she won't come to the hospital anymore. Since she's here, it means she has needs!

She may not have a serious physical problem, but she does have psychological needs. She thinks this is a major surgery, and after surgery, she definitely needs to take some good medicine to replenish herself. But you only prescribed medication worth just over a hundred yuan, which is too simplistic for someone of her status!

Cang Er said the woman is wealthy; she comes here in a BMW. Without medication or treatment worth over a thousand yuan, she will feel that you're not concerned about her illness or that you, as a doctor, lack competence."

Luo Zhou was stunned for a moment, "But... how do we spend that one thousand yuan plus?"

Zhang Chun smiled, "You can prescribe some tonics and do some physiotherapy. When you first joined the hospital, they gave you a booklet of medications and treatment procedures, didn't they? You need to study it carefully!

The treatment methods between different departments can be referenced from each other. You see, in private hospitals, as long as you do two things well, you'll thrive: understand the leaders and understand the patients. As for colleague relations, that's bullshit."

For Luo Zhou, Zhang Chun's words were an eye-opener. Different from Chen Cang and Zhang Chun, Luo Zhou, formally educated and working in public hospitals, had never even considered private hospitals.

He simply didn't understand the operating model of private hospitals.

"Big Wave, tell me about it, I'm quite curious."

Zhang Chun nodded with a smile, "Do you know the difference between public and private hospitals?"

Luo Zhou answered without hesitation, "They earn more!"

This is the true inner thought of all doctors in public hospitals!

Chen Cang was no exception; otherwise, there wouldn't be so many people going to private hospitals.

"And... the technical requirements aren't that high. Otherwise, how the hell could you become a director?"

Zhang Chun wasn't offended; they all came from the same dormitory, so these words were permissible.

Zhang Chun nodded, "Hmm, you got part of it right."

"Private hospitals don't receive government funding, so all expenses have to be earned by themselves. The costs of equipment, salaries, and operational expenses are a considerable expenditure.

Public hospitals have been established for many years and have a deep impression in the public's mind. Everyone thinks that public hospitals have better techniques and cost less. In fact, the techniques in private hospitals are improving, and their charges have reduced quite a bit, so a large portion of patients have started to accept them."

"Moreover, the competition for private hospitals is even fiercer. They not only have to compete with public hospitals but also with their private counterparts, and that's a real battle!"

"For private hospitals, actually, just doing one thing well is enough. As long as people recognize their necessity, and considering the substantial financial investments needed, they resort to using legal, reasonable, but not compassionate methods to make money."

Upon hearing Zhang Chun's words, Chen Cang immediately nodded, "That's right, Big Wave truly has a deep understanding of this. In fact, Mingcheng Private Hospital isn't bad at all, they have lots of patients, and their philosophy is to make money through legal, reasonable, but uncompassionate means!

But what's most important is that the patients are willing to accept it!"

Zhang Chun gave an awkward smile, "I'm not as studious as Luo Zhou, nor as skilled as Chen Cang, what I rely on is just the experience I've gained over the years."

"Private hospitals call it 'medical marketing'!

What is medical marketing?

For a patient who arrives in a BMW, you have to prescribe 500 yuan worth of medication, for those who come by taxi, you can only prescribe 100 yuan worth, and for those who arrive on bicycles, the prescription can't go over 50 yuan!

You have to absolutely understand the patients!"

To put it bluntly, if you're badass enough, you make patients who arrive driving a BMW go back home on a bicycle!

But you can't make them walk, yet allowing them to drive back in their BMW is considered poor management, making them walk is over-management; you have to grasp this measure perfectly to call it reasonable management!"

Zhang Chun's words immediately made Chen Cang and his companion take a fresh look at him, and they couldn't help but lift their glasses to toast him.

Zhang Chun continued, "Of course, we can't just praise them, because after all, their goal is also very simple: to make money!

How do you make money?

It's by maximizing profits within a reasonable range!"

"When a patient arrives, you must conduct a thorough consultation, ask systematically, about both current and past medical history, conduct a systematic physical examination, and expand the range of laboratory, radiology, and ultrasound tests!

This way, you can avoid misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis, and you can also make more money."

At this point, Zhang Chun said, "Let me tell you a core secret!"

"When treating in a private hospital,

the treatment must show effectiveness within the first three days, or the patient will stop coming!

Once it's effective, you change the effective medication, to extend the course of treatment.

Of course, this only applies to some chronic diseases, while for critically ill patients, you need to cure them as quickly as possible."

"This is how you maximize profits within a reasonable range, so it's called reasonable and legal, but not compassionate."

Zhang Chun couldn't help but say, "Let me tell you something, but don't be too shocked!

When I first arrived, the old director took me, and it just so happened that a trauma patient came in!

Do you know what they did?

Instead of stopping the bleeding with anesthesia, they enlarged the wound, giving the patient's family a shocking visual impact by showing them a large wound, then made the patient try to move their injured hand or foot. Of course, the patient couldn't move, and the family would think the condition is very serious, allowing them to charge more money!"

Watching Zhang Chun's eloquent speech, Chen Cang didn't interrupt.

That's how society is, just as Zhang Chun described.

Successful people seek the best way to survive within the rules.

Zhang Chun's methods may not be right, nor necessarily kind, but for him, he might live better than many others.

Luo Zhou listened with befuddlement, but one could tell he wasn't tempted.

After all, everyone has their own path to tread.

When you get down to it, who doesn't have a set of principles in their heart?

In the time that followed, nobody talked about work anymore.

They started reminiscing about the past, discussing who got married, who broke up, how it was when they got married, and what future developments might hold!

Standing outside, the three of them walked, laughed, enjoyed the breeze, and braved the snow, suddenly feeling that it was this variety of experiences that constituted such a life.

ps: Many people might not understand private hospitals well, so I'll take this opportunity to share some insights with you. When making choices, understanding more can help—these are the so-called unspoken rules.

Zhang Chun also has such a friend, in fact, many characters in the book are shadows of real-life persons,
