Abstract:
Objective:To review the health service system,personnel salary system and service model in Macao Special Administrative Region(Macao),and analyze the reference significance for the of the tightly-knit medical alliance construction.Methods:On-site visits were conducted to 2 hospitals,3 community health service centers and 1 nursing home in Macao.Interviews and focus group discussions were held with key informants.Literature review was carried out at the same time.Qualitative and quantitative analysis methods were used to analyze the collected data.Results:Macao has clearly defined the functional positioning of public hospitals and primary healthcare institutions,and has given full play to the supplementary role of private medical institutions,establishing a grid-based medical and health service system with clear division of labor and public-private cooperation.Macao has implemented a strict system of first diagnosis in primary health care and two-way referral,providing high-quality and efficient medical and health services to community residents.Macao has institutionalized the salary system for medical personnel,with only a small income gap between different types of institutions and personnel,establishing a homogenized high-level medical and health salary system.Conclusion:The mainland should strengthen the financial protection,and promote the coordinated management of staff,funds and properties.Institutionalize the income and responsibility system for medical personnel,and narrow the income gap between different types of institutions and personnel,strengthen the functional positioning of primary health care and services for key populations,and promote first diagnosis in primary health care and two-way referral.
