Chapter 754

What's more, bladder cancer is a disease that can easily relapse.

But the problem came. Until the middle of July, Omar was still told by the hospital that he needed to wait for the operation schedule, and the time was uncertain.

This is more painful. Cancer recurrence is a terrible thing, which is a great blow to people's body and psychology. Omar naturally likes to rush to see a doctor to deal with this matter, but the hospital delays again and again, which is too much!

In fact, this can not simply blame the inaction of hospitals. Canada's medical system determines that this is the case.

It is undeniable that compared with other countries in the world, the fairness and transparency of Canada's health care system are top, but he has a very serious problem, that is, slow medical treatment, which is the case in all hospitals.

How slow is it? According to an authoritative survey report, the average waiting time for Canadian patients from receiving the referral form issued by the family doctor to receiving in-depth treatment in large hospitals is about 19 weeks!

Among them, the national average waiting time for CT, B-ultrasound and other examinations is about 5 weeks. Individual items such as MRI need to wait for nearly one year if they are not acute and severe

Of course, if you have a black gold Centurion card, these times can be greatly shortened. Before Weini did B-ultrasound, the hospital arranged to see a doctor and get a film in less than ten minutes.

But how many black gold Centurion cards are there for 30 million people in the country?!

Qin Shiou knew more about this matter. When he first returned home, he met an immigrant compatriot who returned home for medical treatment. At that time, he also changed his first class to that family, which won wini's favor.

At that time, the immigrant's family was the victims of the Canadian medical system. From a certain point of view, Qin Shiou was naturally the beneficiary. Otherwise, how could he and Weini intersect again?

But Qin Shiou doesn't understand what the Canadian medical system is like. Will this happen?

Hughes sighed when he heard his question and began to explain it to him.

The reason why this situation is caused by Canadians themselves is that in Canada, social equity is the basis of traditional values, and medical equity is not only related to life, age and death, but also the top priority of social equity.

In order to maintain the principle of fairness, Canada explicitly prohibits private insurance from purchasing health and medical services covered by provincial government insurance. Medical institutions are public in nature, and there are no private hospitals or "noble hospitals".

In Canada, hospitals are mostly non-profit. Their operation funds are provided by local governments according to the budget, and a considerable part is provided by private charities.

The service items of the hospital belong to the scope of social insurance, and the services of the hospital cannot be charged. Doctors' remuneration is based on their service content, which is determined by the government and doctors' Association through negotiation agreement. Doctors cannot charge for the service items specified by social insurance.

For Canadian residents, regardless of income, they can access the same level of basic health care services.

Even for patients who have purchased commercial insurance, although they have the ability to choose higher standards in terms of ward level, private care and self funded drugs, there is no special preferential treatment in the waiting period in the process of examination and treatment, and there will be no queue jumping in the hospital.

Hearing this, Qin Shiou said with a smile: "no, it's fake. I took Winnie to the hospital a week ago. I had to queue up, but I took out the black gold Centurion card and I successfully jumped the queue."

Although this is not something worth showing off, it is a fact that Qin Shiou can overturn Hughes' introduction.

Hughes blinked and said incredulously, "it's impossible. The black gold Centurion card only works for private hospitals and private companies. Maria hospital is a public hospital and doesn't accept the privilege of the black gold Centurion card at all."

Qin Shiou spread his hand and said with a smile, "but this is the fact. At that time, an expert named Odom showed Winnie the disease... Oh, fine, I understand what's going on!"

Speaking of Odom, Qin Shiou knows what's going on. Maybe the last time he enjoyed the preferential treatment of the hospital was not the credit of the black gold centurion, but the credit of a message recorded on the black gold Centurion.

Last year, he went to Boston to participate in the charity donation activity held by Harvard Medical School and major hospitals in North America. At that time, he donated $1 million. It seems that someone will tell him that in the future, he will enjoy VIP services in all public hospitals in North America, but it has been useless. He forgot about it.

Qin Shiou said something about his donation. Hughes suddenly realized, "that must be so, but alas, man, how many people are as rich as you? We can't even get a $10000 donation! "

They chatted all the way and soon arrived at the agreed gathering place for the demonstrators, the Town Wharf.

More than 200 people took part in the demonstration. The leader was Omar, a middle-aged man with a sad face.

Seeing Omar in low spirits, Qin Shiou couldn't bear it. His impression of the man was the bright smile that always hung on his face. Now there was no smile, only sadness on his face. The whole person had no spirit, just like a withered tree.

Qin Shiou went up and hugged Omar, patted him on the back and said, "don't worry, brother, there are no difficulties in the world. I'll help you. You can enter the hospital soon."

His plan is to use his VIP authority to jump the queue and send Omar to the hospital.

When they gathered, they took the ferry to the wharf. This time, they made a great momentum. Hamlet intended to prepare a unified T-shirt for attacking the o'keefer group.

As soon as the fishermen on the wharf saw so many people getting off the ship, they quickly let them open the way for fear of impetuous disaster.

Qin Shiou finally understood why so many people wanted to play parade and demonstration. A large group of people gathered together. It felt great to pretend to be a tiger.

In addition to farewell Town, the demonstrators came from all over St. John's because too many families were trapped in the current medical system.

These people have also received unified T-shirts sent by Hamley group. Some have been waiting at the gate of St. Johns government, and some are still coming in a steady stream.

Qin Shiou roughly estimated that, good guy, this time Hamley group also made a lot of money and used more than 1000 people!

In addition to the demonstrators, Hamley group also invited a number of TV stations. The issue of health care reform and racial discrimination has always been a hot topic in Canada, but many people like to watch it.

Qin Shiou thought he was coming to join the fun. As a result, he said goodbye to the town and directly asked him to be the team leader. He asked him to speak on behalf of the team. Hughes also encouraged him and said, "Qin, you are the leading brother this time!"

Qin Shiou is confused now. Why do you have to speak? Didn't you agree to work together? Trust? What about friendship? Can we have fun together in the future?
