Opinion - Why is Taiwan behind ?

(1) Taiwan got highest CovID death rate in Asia and entire world again and again.  United Daily (2023-3-14): The death rate of severe CovID patients in Taiwan is more than 85%
udn.com/news/story/120940/7029331?from=udn_ch2cate6638sub120940_pulldownmenu_v2 /  "Medicine should be prescribed but not prescribed, medicine should be taken but not taken",  bad record of "failure to administer CovID remedy/medicine in time" Bloomberg, 2021-7-25: Taiwan's medical care system is also run on a tight budget to keep costs affordable Newsweek: These are challenging times for hospitals. COVID-19 put unprecedented stress on health systems.

(2) Not patient-centered /  not easy to register clinic, 2-5 minutes for clinic diagnosis,
7-10 waiting days in emergency room to be hospitalized, shortage of some excellent medicines and newest equipments, the number of MDs per 10000 is very low, turnover rate of the nurses is high, some chronic disease items' score very low, poor internationalization, national health insurance ceiling issue, not to value privacy, medical disputes,  not enough resource for rural patients and the disadvantaged... for details pls. read the web-pages below

 

Newsweek: Among the hallmarks of great hospitals, however, are not just first-class care, first-class research and first-class innovation. The very best institutions also share another quality: consistency. The world's best hospitals consistently attract the best people and provide the best outcomes for patients as well as the most important new therapies and research.

news

☉ Taiwan's United Daily (2023-11-14): In recent years, there has been a massive exodus of nursing staff, with nearly 5,000 nurses every year, resulting in a serious shortage of manpower at the care site. However, the government has turned a blind eye to this and has placed a lot of risks and responsibilities on CovID front-line nurses, without paying their subsidies. Furthermore, in order to make up for the manpower gap of nursing staff, the national nursing examination (護理國考) has lowered the threshold; the proportion of more difficult subjects such as "Basic Medicine"(「基礎醫學」) has been reduced from 20% to 10%, regardless of the quality of medical care...

medical personnel protest the government's expansion of of enrollment quotas in medical schools... (濫開學校招生名額,崩壞已經超飽和醫事人力,完全無視「總量管制原則」)  tw.news.yahoo.com/黑十字運動-凱道的醫事人員怒火抗議-083200983.html medical personnel are still overworked due to a staff shortage. Despite an expansion of enrollment quotas in medical schools' departments of traditional Chinese medicine, pharmacy, and nursing, as well as the lowering of the threshold for passing the national doctors exams, the demand is still greater than the supply. This has led to a medical workers’ protest on Sunday. The rally in front of the Presidential Office Building was jointly conducted by medical workers from five branches of medicine.   .youtube.com/watch?v=hMada7WkFcU 

 

☉ United Daily (2023-11-13): There is a serious shortage of Medical-Doctor officers in the military troops. However, the National Defense Medical Center cannot increase enrollment because the medical field and educational circles are unwilling to relax the total enrollment quotas control (不願放寬總量管制).


☉ United Daily (2023-8-25):Taiwan's hospitals reject cancer patients being hospitalized under the status of National Health Insurance to avoid the authority turning down hospital's application for payment by the strategy of a sum and canceling after confirming.  Many patients faced with the dilemma of being unable to afford expensive cancer medicines because the policy of private insurance companies does not cover out-of-pocket medicine expenses.  udn.com/news/story/7266/7393297?from=redpush
