A private hospital in Dongguan called Kanghua openly hung a banner at the year-end summary meeting that read, "Tigers and Tigers Are Born to Welcome the New Year, the Operating Room Is Full of Money", which caused great social controversy.

I see that some media have described Kanghua Hospital as the Putian department; some media have also broken the news that the person behind Kanghua Hospital is the richest man in Dongguan. Trying to rationalize the blatant "all the money in the operating room" is a pernicious act.

But whether the above revelations are true or not, we need to know a logic: the market-oriented medical industry is to make money; there is no difference between private hospitals and private companies, and the pursuit of profit maximization is its instinct.

"The operating room is full of money" although the words are ugly, but it reflects a cruel fact: in the market-oriented medical environment, patients have no ability to "bargain" with the hospital; you want to buy a dress, if it is too expensive, you can not buy it, anyway, there are old clothes to wear; but if you wait to go to the operating table, can you say to the hospital: too expensive, I will do it in half a year?

Therefore, in the market-oriented and privatized hospitals, patients belong to an absolutely weak position, and the hospital says how much it costs, that is, how much, and controls the absolute pricing power; naturally, private hospitals have become one of the most profitable industries.

I watch a lot of mainstream media and commentators criticize this private hospital for being immoral, which is very powerless. Without changing the market-oriented medical system, without changing the absolutely weak position of patients in the process of treatment, "the operating room is full of money" This kind of thing is staged every day, whether private hospitals have spoken out or not.
