The Master Plan on Building China into a Leading Country in Education （2024-2035） has made important arrangements for“expanding the space and battlefield for practical and online education”and“fully utilizing the educational function of red resources”. Red medicine culture is a cultural system with strong vitality and excellent genes created by the people led by the CPC in the process of creating health care undertakings. In the context of the new era， how to effectively promote the integration of red medicine culture into the ideological and political education in medical colleges and universities to enhance medical students’ sense of professional identity， responsibility， and mission has become a key issue in the current medical education reform. By analyzing the necessity and basic principles of integrating red doctor culture into ideological and political education in medical colleges and universities， a practical path based on the “three horizontal integrations and three vertical dimensions” model was proposed. Specifically， this involves horizontally promoting textbook construction， classroom teaching， and ideological and political practice， while vertically deepening pre-class preparation， classroom teaching reform， and post-class evaluation， thereby building a systematic and operational red doctor culture integration system as well as providing theoretical support and practical guidance for the cultivation of medical talents in the new era.
