Recently, the State Council held a routine policy briefing, during which multiple departments—including the National Health Commission, the National Healthcare Security Administration, and the National Development and Reform Commission—jointly explained how to further enhance people’s sense of gain when seeking medical care and what measures can be taken to boost the motivation of medical personnel. Ensuring Doctors Have Fair and Respectable Incomes At the press conference, Jiao Yahui, Director-General of the Medical Administration and Management Bureau of the National Health Commission, addressed the question of “how to eliminate drug kickbacks,” emphasizing that the state has consistently adopted a strategy of “combining rectification with institutional improvement” in the pharmaceutical procurement and sales sector. Jiao Yahui stated that through reforms in the remuneration system—covering adjustments to medical service pricing and payment methods—the relative pricing of medical services will be optimized, thereby reflecting the true value of medical professionals’ technical expertise and labor. This aims to ensure they enjoy fair and respectable incomes. She added that the National Health Commission calls for building hospital cultures centered on patient needs, urging medical staff to uphold pure professional ethics, promote noble professional values, respect the principles of medical science, adhere to medical ethics, follow clinical guidelines, and standardize their clinical practices. By regulating behavior, these measures seek to curb unethical practices in the pharmaceutical procurement and sales field. Jiao Yahui also highlighted the importance of strengthening communication between doctors and patients to safeguard patients’ basic health rights and foster mutual trust and understanding. Furthermore, she stressed the need to cultivate a positive societal atmosphere that respects and values healthcare professionals, establishing appropriate regulations to effectively address misconduct in the pharmaceutical procurement and sales sector. Establishing a Remuneration System Reflecting Job Responsibilities and Knowledge Value Xu Shuqiang, Director-General of the Institutional Reform Department of the National Health Commission, outlined measures to further motivate medical personnel: “Medical and health institutions are permitted to exceed current salary control limits for public institutions; moreover, after deducting costs and setting aside funds as required, revenues from medical services may primarily be allocated to staff incentives.” Xu emphasized that the medical profession is characterized by long training periods, high occupational risks, significant technical challenges, and heavy responsibilities—factors that warrant fair compensation. He urged the thorough implementation of the “two allowances”: allowing medical institutions to surpass existing salary caps for public entities, and permitting the use of medical service revenues—after cost deductions and statutory fund allocations—for staff rewards. This includes appropriately determining and dynamically adjusting medical workers’ salaries, establishing a remuneration system that prioritizes job responsibilities and knowledge value, ensuring pay aligns with duties, and linking performance assessments to actual rewards. Crucially, the focus should be on leveraging the protective function of the salary system to match effort with compensation, thus inspiring medical professionals to remain motivated and energetic in their work. Eliminating Biases Toward Papers, Degrees, Awards, and Titles Xu Shuqiang also noted the need to improve the system for training and developing medical personnel, ensuring every healthcare worker has access to continuing education and professional retraining opportunities to keep their knowledge up-to-date. He called for accelerating the cultivation of high-level, multidisciplinary medical talent, fostering strategic leaders, pioneers, and innovative teams capable of operating at an international level. In addition, he advocated reforming and refining the talent evaluation mechanism, adhering to tiered and categorized assessment approaches that reflect the unique characteristics of the medical profession and the natural progression of talent development. This involves setting reasonable evaluation criteria, emphasizing moral integrity, competence, and achievements, focusing on clinical performance indicators, exploring the adoption of a representative works system, and eliminating biases toward publications, academic degrees, awards, or titles. Ultimately, this approach seeks to ensure that each individual’s talents are fully utilized and that their abilities are put to best use.
