Chapter 1259： Safety valve (1/2)
Sitting at his home table, Academician Di was very relaxed.
Wearing slippers on his feet, he talked for a while, but he unconsciously put his leg on the chair. A few seconds later, he reacted, but he smiled, patted his thigh and said, ”Today's atmosphere is good. I'll get a good bottle of wine.”
With that, he got up and went into the room inside, and took out another bottle of red wine.
”Well, the people on duty don't drink, the others are free.” Academician Di didn't persuade him to drink, so he asked the little granddaughter to open the red wine again.
Academician Di’s two young granddaughters were originally disdainful of doing similar chores, but when Ling Ran was present, the two daughters acted very virtuously. One used the corkscrew elegantly, and the other actively took the decanter. The doctor got goose bumps all over his body.
”Our hospital was the first to use intraoperative surface ultrasound. The first device was introduced by me. The cost of that year reached tens of millions.” Academician Di sat down again and said with a definite goal: ”By this year, it will only be The investment in intraoperative surface ultrasound, I said, one of the top three in China, should be no problem, right?”
”Our heart center's investment in intraoperative surface ultrasound is likely to be the first in the country.” Cao Gaofeng, who was silent for a while, knew this aspect best, and he immediately responded and was very proud.
Academician Di smiled and nodded: ”They all say high investment and high return. In fact, it is basically impossible to make money in the top medical care. It is good not to lose too much. Like us, if we talk about income, in fact, There is no need to spend tens of millions of yuan to purchase equipment, because the price of medical services is not good for further increase. Using the original mature equipment and talents is the way to make money, right.”
Everyone nodded.
”Surface ultrasound is still a successful technology. In the past few years, every year there are many unsuccessful technologies that you don’t know about success or failure. In the end, most of the technologies that are unsuccessful come out. Should we follow up? If we don’t follow up, after a few years to prove success, we are already behind.” Academician Di sighed and said to Ling Ran, “What do I mean by this? It’s the latest and greatest technology. It’s always in the top medical institutions, in hospitals like ours that don’t rely on income to make a profit. And a regional hospital like Yunhua Hospital, no matter how high its investment is or how high its profit is , The investment in new technology is not comparable to ours. Do you think it?”
Academician Di's eyes fixed on Ling Ran.
”Theoretically, yes.” Ling Ran agreed with his statement.
Academician Di immediately laughed: ”The reality is the same. Look at the major hospitals in the world, the Presbyterian Hospital in New York, the Affiliated Hospital of Dongda Medical School in Japan, the Toronto General Hospital, the Affiliated Hospital of Charlotte University in Berlin, and the Pi Tiesar Petril Hospital, Fodos University Medical Research Center in Switzerland... the top hospitals are losing money, why? Because you only need to explore new technologies, it is a bottomless pit. Mayo said you made money , But it is too special. It is relying on its first position to make money from the rich in the world and exploit employees inward, so that the Nobel Prize winners only get an average salary of hundreds of thousands of dollars a year... Let’s not say that you can’t learn, but Mayo has and can only have one. Nobel Scholars won’t get a salary of US$180,000 in the world’s second hospital.”
Ling Ran nodded slowly. For him, this was a new point of knowledge. As for how hospitals and medical centers operate, he is only in his twenties, but he hasn't really dabbled in it.
Tian Qi heard his eyes flickering, and said: ”Does the Nobel Prize scholar only get 180,000 US dollars? Is it enough?”
”Mayo pays the salary according to the average salary of the region or the United States. It is almost 180,000 US dollars, maybe 150,000 US dollars.” Academician Di paused, then thought about it: ”Scholars do not cost much for daily expenses. .”
”So, besides Doctor Ling, there are still many doctors who live purely for their ideals?” Tian Qi opened his eyes wide, looking very admired.
The youngest brother smiled and said: ”If you are a doctor, you can live by drinking wind if you don't support your family.”
Several doctors looked at Academician Di from the corner of their eyes, all sitting in jeopardy.
Ling Ran asked at this time: ”How is Mayo's heart bypassing done? What do you think is the best cardiac hospital in the world?”
Academician Di pondered for two seconds and said: ”As far as I know, since 1995, the Cleveland Medical Center has been ranked first in the cardiology specialty rankings of ”US News and World Report.”
”Do you agree?”
