" Shenzhen City, Guangdong Province does not allow village doctors to practice, because..."
The pharmacy found a blank prescription, which led to the village doctor's violation of regulations
Recently, a health supervisor in Guangming District, Shenzhen, Guangdong Province conducted an on-site inspection of a pharmacy. The pharmacy held a "Business License" and "Drug Business License". There were pharmacy professionals on site. The disinfection drug certificate was obtained. Everything seemed very standardized.
However, the supervisor found that there were 5 blank prescription papers on the practicing pharmacist consultation desk, so he immediately conducted further inspection of the pharmacy and found a trick!
Law enforcement officers found 4 prescription notes for prescriptions for various Chinese medicines at their cash register. The name registration column of the four prescriptions and the signature of the doctor's column after the prescription are not recognized.
pharmacist Shi of the pharmacy said: Xu, who holds a village doctor certificate, is the head of the institution, and the prescription was issued by Xu to customers who came to the pharmacy for treatment. The signature of the doctor column after the prescription was also signed by Xu.
After inquiry, Xu said that the 5 blank prescriptions were given by a friend who opened a clinic in Dongguan . They were used to prescribe medicines. The 4 prescriptions that have been used were signed by the doctor column. After verification, Xu can only provide a photo print of his rural doctor's practice certificate, and cannot provide "Doctor Qualification Certificate" and " Doctor Practice Certificate ".
law enforcement officers said that Xu only obtained the qualification of a rural doctor and engaged in medical practice in Shenzhen should be subject to administrative penalties in accordance with the law.
Rural doctor certificate, why is it invalid?
Regarding this matter, Xu himself was also very confused and said that he did not know that rural doctor qualifications cannot carry out diagnosis and treatment activities in Shenzhen. It turns out that after the "removal of villages and residential areas", there were no villages in Shenzhen, and the rural doctor's certificates naturally became invalid here. The relevant departments have given a detailed explanation:
1. According to the provisions of the " Rural Doctor Practice Management Regulations ", rural doctors must practice in village medical and health institutions that have obtained a medical institution practice license, and must practice in registered place of practice.
"Village medical and health institutions" refer to the village clinic (station, station) and village community health service station that provides prevention, health care and general medical services to rural residents. It is a non-profit medical and health institution.
2. After Shenzhen "removing villages and relocating residential areas", any rural doctor conducts medical practice activities in Shenzhen must register and conduct them within the registered medical institution and scope after obtaining the medical qualification certificate and medical practice certificate uniformly printed by the health administrative department of the State Council. If a rural doctor conducts medical treatment activities in Shenzhen without authorization, he or she will be punished as a non-medical practitioner.
Shenzhen City abolished the village committee system and established a neighborhood committee. The party involved in this case, Xu, only obtained the qualification of a rural doctor, and engaged in medical practice activities in Shenzhen, should be subject to administrative penalties in accordance with Article 59 of the " Physician Law of the People's Republic of China ".
《Doctor Law 》 Article 59 clearly states that "if any violation of the provisions of this Law and non-drug practices, the health and health department of the people's government at or above the county level shall order to stop illegal practice activities, confiscate illegal income and drugs and medical devices, and impose a fine of not less than twice but not more than ten times the illegal income. If the illegal income is less than 10,000 yuan, it shall be calculated as 10,000 yuan. "
Therefore, the village doctor not only must stop practicing in a pharmacy, pay off illegal income and medicines, but also be fined at least 20,000 yuan.
"Removing villages and relocating residential areas" will the village doctor be eliminated?
This case reminds all village doctors that only rural doctor certificates can only practice in rural communities, while urban communities clearly do not allow such rural doctors to practice.
"Removing villages and renovating residential areas" also brought a sense of crisis to village doctors.Last year, Beijing issued the "Guiding Opinions on Carrying out Villages and Housing Construction", and revealed that from 1984 to 2019, the number of village committees dropped from 4,398 to 3,888, a decrease of 510. In recent years, due to major urban projects, 261 villages need to abolish the village committee system.
can be seen, and the process of withdrawing villages and building residential buildings is further accelerating. Moreover, this is not only a phenomenon in individual regions. As urbanization continues to deepen, many villages are facing the merger and withdrawal of villages, and there are fewer and fewer jobs in village clinics.
Then, village doctors with only rural doctor certificates are likely to face elimination due to insufficient qualifications. After the village is withdrawn, where should they go?
In 2014, National Health and Family Planning Commission (now National Health and Family Planning Commission ) approved the issue of the practice of former rural doctors after the "removal of villages and relocation". After the village was removed and the residential area was changed, when the original village medical and health institutions were transformed into urban community health service institutions, rural doctors who had obtained legal medical qualifications and worked in the village medical and health institutions, can continue to register and practice in the transformed urban community health service institutions, and their scope of practice remains unchanged. 's management of this part of rural doctors shall apply to the "Regulations on the Management of Rural Doctors"; will no longer register after the validity period of the practice certificate expires.
The validity period of the rural doctor's practice certificate is 5 years. If you need to continue practicing after the validity period, you should apply for re-registration 3 months before the expiration of the validity period. If you are not allowed to register again, the village doctor will be forced to withdraw from your post.
Practice doctor's certificate, you have to take the
In this case, if the village doctor still wants to practice medicine legally, you either leave your residence and go to other villages to apply for a job; or you can pass the exam for practice ( Assistant) Physician certificate, strive to stay in community health service institutions, or open a clinic on its own.
At the same time, the entry threshold for village clinics is gradually increasing, and the village doctor team is becoming more and more standardized and professional. At the beginning of this year, the State Council issued the "Notice on Promoting Agricultural and Rural Modernization Plan" to clarify that By 2025, 45% of village doctors must obtain the qualification of practicing (assistant) physicians.
can be said, In the near future, the practicing (assistant) physician certificate will become the lowest threshold for village doctors. In order to avoid elimination, village doctors can only follow the trend and actively test, arm themselves through professional knowledge, and realize their dreams of self-medical medicine and life value!
