Abstract:
In light of the objective circumstances and its subjective conditions, our hospital, a grade A, second tier urban general hospital, made the right choice of reorienting itself towards community health service after making a careful assessment of the current situation. In the course of the reorientation, our hospital mainly focused on such tasks as change of concepts, readjustment of its structure and functions, establishment of the service mode of the family physician, delivery of the "six in one" service in the form of a team, and implementation of standard management. Such efforts proved to be fruitful and won the approval of the community. On the basis of this, our hospital tried hard to exploit to the full its favorable conditions as a second tier hospital in providing community health service and called for attention and solution to such issues as the pricing system, the fundraising and compensation mechanism, cost accounting, and reform of the personnel system in the delivery of community health service.
