Objective:To analyse the settings of sub-campus of public hospitals directly under the National Health Commission, so as to provide research reference and suggestions for further promoting the scientific and standardized construction of sub-campuses of public hospitals.Methods:Data before August 30, 2022 were collected from the official websites of the hospitals in question including their introduction, overview, navigation, news and other categories of information.Relevant literatures on multi-campus published by hospitals under the direct management of the National Health Commission were obtained from the China National Knowledge Network, which was identified by searching the keywords " sub or multi-campus hospital" with " author affiliation", using such search conditions as " MeSH major topic" or " title/keywords/abstract" of the studied hospitals in advanced search builder. Descriptive analysis and frequency analysis were conducted on the numbers, the construction reasons, geographical location, operation scale, characteristics and positioning of the sub-campuses in the studied hospitals.Results:Of the 44 such hospitals, 30 had a total of 50 sub-campuses in operation. Generally there were two modes of construction. 35 were newly constructed and 15 formed by mergers; 37 sub-campuses were built and put into operation since 2010. Sub-campuses were usually located in the same area of the main campus, with 11 in the same area of the same city and areas, 35 in different areas of the same city, and 4 in different cities; the average geographical distance between the sub-campus and the main hospital campus was 31.18 kilometers; 27 sub-campuses had beds ≤ 500, 12 sub-campuses had beds between 501-1 000, 11 had beds>1 000; 14 specialized sub-campuses and 31 out of the 35 comprehensive sub-campuses clearly indicating their characteristics of specialized departments, and 1 other (research institute areas with research beds).Conclusions:Future proofing is characteristic of these public hospitals in terms of their sub-campus construction, regional setting, planning and positioning, and functional layout. However, both government regulatory departments and public hospitals should comprehensively consider and make prudent decisions on the planning, investment, demonstration, layout, and other aspects of the construction of sub-campuses of hospitals.

Setting up branches of public hospital is one of the important ways to allocate high-quality medical re-sources.However,medical quality homogenization is the core problem of multi-campus hospitals.As a result of dif-ferent qualities of clinical departments setting,personnel,supervision,information technology,etc.,it is difficult for hospital branches to achieve medical homogenization as the main campus.It elaborated the implementation path of medical quality homogenization in the construction of one hospital with four campuses in a large public hospital di-rectly under the National Health Commission based on SPO theory.In the three dimensions of structure,process and result,it described the specific practice of resource allocation,comprehensive supervision,performance evalua-tion and improvement,etc,thus to discuss the medical management strategies of different types of branches of hospitals,which is expected to be helpful to the construction of public hospitals with multi-campus.

Objective:To analyze the characteristics of the circular cases violating the " nine prohibitions" in recent years, so as to provide a basis for further strengthening the moral culture construction of the healthcare industry.Methods:Data came from the reported cases released on official websites of the discipline inspection committees, supervision committees and health committees at all levels in China from December 2013 to August 2021, which were identified by searching the keyword " case or report or moral culture and nine prohibitions" . Descriptive analysis and frequency analysis were conducted on the reported time, region and province, as well as the involved units, departments, persons, punishment results and case classification data of all the cases.Results:A total of 102 cases violating the " nine prohibitions" were included, of which the cases from 2014 to 2015 topped the rest, accounting for 51.96%(53 cases). Top three regions of these cases were central China, east China and southwest China, with 31 cases, 27 cases and 18 cases respectively. The units involved were mainly tertiary medical institutions, accounting for 44.12%(45 cases). More medical staff(134 people) than administrative staff(85 people) were involved in the cases. The largest number of cases was receiving kickbacks, with 52 cases(50.98%). The punishment results of cases included judicial procedures(76 people), Party discipline and government discipline punishment(67 people) and organizational punishment(76 people).Conclusions:Moral culture problem in China′s healthcare sector is characterized in wide coverage, complexity, comprehensiveness and long-term. Relevant authorities should keep up their efforts in enhancing the awareness of medical workers, improving the synergy mechanism in this regard, and strengthening the internal management of medical institutions.
