Medical services move an important step forward

THE Minhang District established two new unified medical complexes affiliated to Fudan University. They are the Eye and ENT Hospital and the Stomatological Hospital.

Doctors with the two hospitals will work with Minhang counterparts on training, ward visits and surgeries. Consultations between both sides will be available at all hours.

In the second half of this year, the Eye and ENT Hospital will open a branch in Pujiang Town. Several doctors at the general hospital will start working at the new branch.

The Stomatological Hospital said it will carry out long-term training programs for the Minhang District Dental Disease Prevention Hospital over the next five years, making it the best facility of its kind in the city.

The district has established five similar unified medical complexes in the past two years, including specialty services for tumors and traditional Chinese medicine.

In 2015, the district formed a new medical treatment system under which families sign contracts with family doctors in community health centers, a district hospital and a municipal hospital.

The unified medical complexes give patients green channels to top hospitals if the need arises. The model is expected to be expanded citywide.
