  • I went to hospital in China again. Real life in a Chinese hospital. I got sick and had to visit hospital in the Chinese city of Nanjing. I visited a Chinese doctor, went to the hospital pharmacy and got some Chinese medicine. I talk about how easy it is to see a doctor in China compared to the UK #china #chinavlogs #chinesehospital #nanjing #hospital #chinesecommunity #lifeinchina #foreignerinchina #chinavsusa #chinavsuk #nhs #healthcare

So you where is a giant hypocrite, cause cops in the USA will just kick you out of your home under "court orders" as soon as developers pay enough to the city gov to evict you! Also you will never see American homes that's in the middle of the road or extremely close to bridges like one in China due to owners refusing to sell, cause in the USA they physically comes and remove yourass under eminent domain unlike china who actually left those owners alone if they absolutely refused to sell.

Of course it's not just FBI this is happening to many Americans citizens and countless of them have their life savings seized under civil forfeitures law enforcement, their businesses closed or their homes bankrupted all due to democratic "civil forfeiture" that acts more like dictatorship 😂 but no you keep blaming communist for the ills of gov that's run by democracy, isn't it time for you stupidasss to open your eyes to see who your real enemies are?

    Having used Chinese hospitals sevarl times, including a stent procedure and ACL surgery, I can say that the facilities in the newer hospitals in the large cities are excellent. This is true in the larger hospitals that usually have names like ' (City or Province name) No1 Peoples Hospital. Locals will also tell you other good hospitals. Small local hospitals are not so good and are more like large clinics.
    Treatment is very affordable. I think my last MRI cost about USD 80, equivalent. My 3 weeks in hospital after ACL surgery cost less than USD 10 000, and that included a 5 hour surgery, and all related scans, xrays and other tests.

    In China, If a healthy adult has an ordinary annual physical examination, the general cost is about 200-300 yuan ( 30 to 35 $) , including the measurement of height, weight, blood pressure, blood routine, liver and kidney function tests, and electrocardiogram. If you are middle-aged and elderly, it is usually recommended to do additional tumor-related examinations, including chest CT and tumor markers. Women also need to undergo gynecological cervical TCT, and men need to undergo prostate-related examinations. The cost may be around 1,000 yuan ( 140 $). If you are a patient with a heart risk of coronary heart disease, or a family history of gastrointestinal diseases, you may need to do coronary CT or gastrointestinal endoscopy in the physical examination, and the price of the physical examination will rise to 2000-3000 yuan ( 280 to 400 $). if you have Chinese national medicare security card, 70% will be covered by insurrance, 30% is paid by indivisual.
    Previously many Chinese elderly and retired people like to use hospitals as nursing home, because staying hospital is cheaper than nurse home. therefore, some years ago, Chinese government made a medicare policy that elderly people with no major illness can stay in hosptial wardroom for 2 weeks every year , if the elderly people have Long-term and chronic diseases that are more serious can apply for extension of 2 weeks . if the elderly people want to stay wardroom over 1 month every year, they need to get approval from hospital professional doctor.
    BTW, for 2 weeks wardrooms in hospital with full body check by MRI along with some medical treatment, it cost around 1200 $ in total, if having medicare inssurance, 400 $ is paid by this patient, 800 $ paid by Chinese government.

      Very accurate about the price of the medical check-up, as a note, this is the price in big cities and may be cheaper in smaller towns. As far as I know, it seems that the cost of a medical check-up is not usually reimbursed by Medicare? I'm not sure, but in my practical situation, government employees, as well as employees of state-owned/publicly owned enterprises, etc., receive free high-value medical check-up vouchers every year, usually in the amount of several thousand to tens of thousands of RMB, which is difficult for one person to spend completely, and sometimes they bring other family members to the medical check-ups because these vouchers can only be used for that specific purpose, and it would be a waste if they didn't spend them, and this is how they are able to reduce the medical check-up fees.

    How was your experience getting medical treatment in China compared to in your home country?

    • @middlekingdomproductions
      @middlekingdomproductions  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      I'm from England so healthcare is basically free which is great. However if you need to get treatment fast waiting times are very long and getting a doctors appointment to speak to a doctor can also take a while. In China when I need to see a doctor or have blood tests or CT scans done, I've been able to get them done on the same day without too much waiting around, which is really useful.

      USA health industry accounts for near 19% of GDP, 6% in China, which means that you pay less in China.
      In China, you get the health insurance if you have a job. The payroll system automatically charge 2% + 3(or 5) RMB from your salary as the premium.

      This is a known inherited disease. A lot of information online. Just Google. Every gene has two copies, one from each of your parents. Recessive means you can only have the disease if both copies are defective, and you don't have the disease if only one copy is defective. But you could pass the defective copy to your kids. Autosomal means the genes related to this disease are not on your X or Y chromosome.

Eat small carbohydrate meals and snacks during the day. When I say small I mean 15 grams of carbohydrates for my meals and 5 grams for snacks. Then I drink the cornstarch thirty minutes later after eating. So basically my liver doesn’t do sugar dump to bring up glucose when it’s low I will run out of glucose. That’s what the cornstarch does, they found out the cornstarch slowly digest and slowly releases glucose over those three hours during the day and fours hours at night. Then there are medications involved that equal over $150k a year. I live in the USA. It’s a life threatening condition I’m missing the glucose 6 phosphate enzyme in the liver, the liver isn’t able to convert glycogen back to glucose for the body, that would normally happen in normal peoples bodies.

      Hospitals are open to everyone, but there are two billing models: self-payment, where you pay 100% of your medical expenses, and insurance, where you are reimbursed a certain percentage. All near-adult (e.g. 15+) Chinese citizens have health insurance, but there are usually several types of health insurance with different reimbursement capabilities. But even those with lower reimbursement rates can usually cover most of the cost of common major operations such as stenting, which is why the average life expectancy of the elderly has continued to rise in recent years. As far as I know, the usual way for young Chinese to get medical treatment is to pay out of pocket for minor illnesses because it's convenient and medical treatment is usually not expensive, and to get insurance for major illnesses.

    It's wrong to interpret “ 中国 ” to mean the "Middle Kingdom."
    The full name of China is 【中华人民共和国】 in Chinese. It's 【The People Republic of China(PRC)】 in the English language.
    【中国】is merely an abbreviation of 【中华共和国】 .
    "中" has the connotation of 中华. It's certainly not "middle".
    You are from the United Kingdom (UK) and the UK is a kingdom indeed because it has a monarchy system.
    Since 1911, China removed the monarchy and has been a Republic headed by a President. To all Chinese, China is the PRC not "MK".
