RESUMEN
This paper analyzed the problems existing in China’s basic medical and health services from the perspective of fairness and efficiency, and the main restricting factors of balanced developmen. The main factors were: the far-reaching influence of "dual economic structure" between urban and rural areas, the government’s low-efficiency intervention in the allocation of health resources, the efficiency of hierarchical diagnosis and treatment system has not been fully released, the level of basic medical security needs to be improved, and the reform of the management and operation mechanism of medical institutions is lagging. It is proposed to adhere to the value concept of appropriate balance between fairness and efficiency, give full play to the functions of the government and the market, and take concrete measures to improve the financing mode, optimize the allocation of resources and improve the service system.
RESUMEN
As the major means of outpatient payment for basic medical insurance (the insurance for short) relies on fee-for-service, it tends to encourage unreasonable growth of medical expenses. Based on the principal-agent theory, this paper analyzed the principal-agent relationship between the insurance handling agencies and the hospitals designated by the insurance, and constructed a benefit game model of outpatient payment methods and the supporting supervision game model. This practice aims to explore the optimal and balanced benefit of the insurance payment methods and supporting supervision mechanism, and provide decision support for promoting the reform of medical insurance outpatient payment in China. The analysis results of the benefit game model of payment methods showed that a system mixing the post-payment and pre-payment could optimize and maximize the total benefits and interests of all the stakeholders within the system. Specifically, the practice recommended was a mixed payment integrating ambulatory-payment-classification, fee-for-service and global-budget-payment. The analysis of the supporting regulatory game model found that the factors that must be considered to ensure the expected utility of the above mixed payment mode as follows: the gap between the unreasonable income obtained by the hospital by out-of-control charging and the reward obtained by under-control charging, the size of the penalty after the unreasonable income of the hospital was discovered, the size of the regulatory cost and the loss of benefits of the government and the insured group. It is suggested to adopt the mixed payment method mainly based on the ambulatory-payment-classification supported by fee-for-service and global-budget. At the same time, medical insurance agencies can improve their supervision mechanism from such aspects as perfecting penalties, reducing supervision costs, leveraging government administrative power and advocating public supervision.

RESUMEN
Objective To understand the health-related quality of life (HRQOL) of migrant workers with pneumoconiosis who received basic medical treatment in Hunan Province. Methods A total of 613 migrant workers with pneumoconiosis who received basic medical treatment and assistance in Hunan Province was selected as the study subjects using stratified random sampling method. The European Quality of Life-5 Dimensions (EQ-5D) questionnaire was used to assess their HRQOL. Results The abnormality of the five dimensions of the EQ-5D health description system, from high to low, were as follows： daily activities, mobility, pain/discomfort, anxiety/depression, and self-care, with the abnormal rates of 50.9%, 46.8%, 41.1%, 21.0%, and 14.5%, respectively. The visual analogue scale (VAS) score of EQ-5D was (63.5±18.6) points. Patients with stage Ⅲ pneumoconiosis had high abnormality in mobility, daily activities, and pain/discomfort compared with those with stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ disease (all P<0.02). Patients in stage Ⅱ and Ⅲ of pneumoconiosis had higher incidence of anxiety/depression compared with those with stage I disease (all P<0.02). Patients with complications in addition to pneumoconiosis had higher abnormality in mobility, self-care, and pain/discomfort compared to those with simple pneumoconiosis or those eligible for lung lavage treatment (all P<0.02). Patients with simple pneumoconiosis had a higher incidence of anxiety/depression compared with those eligible for lung lavage treatment (P<0.02). Patients with stage Ⅲ pneumoconiosis had lower average VAS scores compared with stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ patients (all P<0.02). Patients with simple pneumoconiosis or those with complications had lower average VAS scores compared with those eligible for lung lavage treatment (all P<0.05). Conclusion The HRQOL of pneumoconiosis patients among migrant workers needs improvement, especially for patients with stage Ⅲ disease and those with complications. This study indicates the need of optimizing policies, raising the hospitalization expense limit for critically ill patients with stage Ⅲ pneumoconiosis or with complications, and improving their HRQOL.
RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the current status and influencing factors of outpatient institution choice for hypertensive patients with basic medical insurance in Beijing, for reference to promote the implementation of the hierarchical medical system and guiding hypertensive patients to seek healthcare in primary care.Methods:Based on data of hypertensive outpatients from the basic medical insurance database of Beijing from April 2019 to January 2020, we analyzed major demographic characteristics of hypertensive patients, the selection of outpatient institutions and its influencing factors. The chi square test was used for comparison between groups, and the multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze influencing factors.Results:2.842 1 million outpatients with hypertension were enrolled. 39.03% of them chose primary healthcare institutions, 5.16% chose secondary healthcare institutions, and 17.34% chose tertiary healthcare institutions, while the rest 38.47% chose two or more types of healthcare institutions. Gender, age, type of medical insurance, place of residence, utilization of Chinese herbal drugs, utilization of Chinese patent drugs, polypharmacy, needs of outpatient tests and examinations were the influencing factors for their selection of primary healthcare institutions for hypertensive outpatients under Beijing basic medical insurance.Conclusions:At present, the primary institutions have become the first choice for the majority of hypertensive patients with medical insurance in Beijing, but there are still many influencing factors on their choice of institutions. In the future, we should optimize the allocation of medical resources, promote the reform of medical insurance payment methods, strengthen the construction of primary medical institutions, expand the coverage of contracted services of family doctors, and reasonably guide the patients to seek healthcare in primary healthcare institutions.

RESUMEN
Medical microbiology is one of the compulsory courses of basic medical sciences, which lays an important theoretical foundation for the follow-up study of infectious diseases, contagions, tumors, and so on. The course of medical microbiology in our college adhered to the concept of student-centered, diversified teaching, scientific evaluation, and continuous improvement. Teaching design was a cross-link of general theories, specific chapters, clinical cases, theory and practice, and the ideological and political education throughout the curriculum. Lectures adopted the mode of offline teaching (such as flipped classroom, case analysis, and comprehensive experimental design), online assistance (such as classroom test, stage test, extracurricular homework, and questionnaire survey), and combined process evaluation. This teaching mode also reflected the deep integration of information technology and classroom teaching. With the development and construction in these years, medical microbiology has completed the renewal of curriculum resources, the construction of online question bank, the construction and design of ideological and political case bank, and process evaluation (10 points of usual score + 10 points of case study + 10 points of experimental performance + 100 points of final examination multiplied by 70%). There was no significant difference in the results of qustionnaire survey in terms of the improvement of independent learning ability, curriculum evaluation system and satisfaction feedback. Students in Batch 2019 were most satisfied with the teaching of keeping pace with the times and the guidance of positive outlook on life and values.

RESUMEN
Objective:To analyze the filing mechanism for cross provincial immediate reimbursement of medical insurance in China, so as to provide reference for optimizing the filing mechanism and improving the filing accessibility of insured personnel.Methods:Taking the filing policy of cross provincial immediate reimbursement of medical insurance in 2019 as the research object, on the basis of a comprehensive understanding of the national filing policy background, 90 coordinating regions in Zhejiang Province, Hubei Province and Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region were taken as survey samples to evaluate the relevant policies and extract key parameters, including filing identification methods, filing-related settlement benefits and filing ways. The parameters were compared and analyzed by using descriptive statistical methods.Results:The results of the survey showed that in terms of identity recognition methods, the provision of various supporting materials(residence permit, work certificate, etc.)was still the main way to carry out identity recognition for medical insured persons in different places.Filing-related reimbursement benefits were mainly adjusted by limiting the area of medical insurance treatment and adjusting the benefits parameters(reimbursement ratio). In terms of filing channels, 51(56.7%)sample co-ordination areas had realized at least one remote filing mode.Conclusions:The inclusiveness of filing identity verification mechanism for the floating population needs to be further improved, the filing-related treatment policies need to be further improved, and the convenience and standardization of filing channels need to be strengthened.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE：To provi de reference for classification ，selection and management of antibacterial drugs in medical institutions. METHODS ：The adjustment of antibacterial drug list in 2019 edition of National Basic Medical Insurance ，Work Injury Insurance and Maternity Insurance （called“New List ”for short ）was introduced. The politic reference of selection and adjustment of antibacterial drugs and the principle of classification selection in medical institutions were sort out. The challenges which may bring to pharmaceutical administration and clinical use in medical institutions were investigated. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS： Three new varieties of the antibacterial drugs in the New List have been added ，including Doxycycline injection，Faropenem granules and Metronidazole oral regular-release preparations. Nine product specifications were excluded ，such as Tetracycline oral regular-release preparations ，Dirithromycin oral regular-release preparations ，etc. The limitation of indications and/or indications of 19 regulations was modified ，and some antibacterial requirements were limited to patients with clear evidence of drug sensitivity test or severe infection. When classifying and selecting antibacterial drugs ，medical institutions should take the existing policy documents as the basis ，strictly implement the relevant provisions of antibacterial drug management ，give priority to meeting various national prescription sets and drug list varieties ，select drugs with sufficient evidence-based treatment basis ，drug quality and safety ，and take into account the convenience and economy of drug use ，supply guarantee service capacity of drug production and circulation enterprises and local situation of pathogenic bacteria resistance. The adjustment of New List also brings challenges to use and management of antibacterial drugs in medical institutions. For example ，New List emphasizes“limited drug sensitivity evidence ”for many antibacterial specifications. But if the clinicians choose drugs mechanically according to the drug sensitivity results and ignores the experience treatment in anti-infection treatment ，another type of “abuse”may be abused ；in addition，the indications of myxomycetin B and colistin （sulfate myxomycetin ）are completely different ，which also deserves further study.

RESUMEN
The difficulty and expense of seeing a doctor was attributed to the out-of-level diagnosis and treatment, and the out-of-level treatment was due to the weakening of the basic medical service capacity. Since the new medical reform,the state has invested a lot, which led to the weakening of the primary medical service capacity. Exploring the institutional root of the weakening of grass-roots medical service ability could help to find the realistic path to enhance the service capacity of grass-roots medical institutions. Enhancing the service capacity of primary medical institutions was the only way to implement graded medical treatment. The administration of medical institutions restricted the improvement of service capacity of primary medical institutions, and the root of administration was the existing medical and health system. Only by starting from the reform of the system and realizing the administration of primary medical institutions, the service capacity of primary medical institutions could be enhanced.
