Medical assistance is the last line of defense of the medical security system, which plays an important role in alleviating the burden of medical expenses on the people in need and preventing poverty caused by illness and returning to poverty due to illness. Recently, in the street of Jiangpu Road, a medical aid fund solved the "urgent need" of resident Aunt Zhang.
Aunt Zhang suffered from multiple joint lesions and necrosis, and was a low-income person with a physical disability of grade 2. At the end of 2021, due to the aggravation of her condition, Aunt Zhang needed hip replacement surgery, but she could not afford the hospitalization costs required for the operation due to family difficulties.
After learning of the situation, the jiangpu road street staff quickly reported it to the district medical insurance bureau. The District Medical Insurance Bureau checked Aunt Zhang's medical assistance information for the first time, and actively sought to shorten the approval and distribution time of medical assistance funds without violating the policy, so that Aunt Zhang could treat her with peace of mind. In the end, Aunt Zhang successfully completed the operation, relieved the pain, and the medical assistance money arrived ahead of schedule. She said excitedly: "Finally, I can rest assured that the New Year will be at ease!" ”
In fact, Aunt Zhang's experience is only a microcosm of the medical assistance policy to benefit the people in need and solve the "urgent need". Last year, the Yangpu District Medical Insurance Bureau repeatedly held meetings of relevant responsible persons of medical assistance in the street affairs acceptance center and medical assistance "one-stop" medical institutions to carry out business training and business guidance, improve the business capabilities of managers, reduce the error rate of medical aid fund review, shorten the approval time limit of the Medical Insurance Bureau, and ensure that medical assistance should be reported in a timely manner.
It is reported that this year, the District Medical Insurance Bureau will rely on the "one network communication office" and "one network unified management" platform to focus on promoting the construction of the "one thing" system for medical assistance, so that the rescue targets can complete the rescue without leaving their homes, achieve full coverage of the whole network office and service network, achieve "reduced process" and "time reduction", strive for "zero materials" and "zero running errands", and really do their best to ensure that the disease is treated, so that the difficult people who need assistance can be treated in a timely manner.
