Doctors needed to communicate with a large and varied crowd under complex clinical situation. The expression and realization of medical humanities literacy through communicating and cooper-ating can help clinical decision-making and cooperation, which is critical to improving the efficiency and the quality of patients' experience. Therefore, this article explores new definitions of communication which are more suitable for doctors and analyzes their principles and requirements according to the different sub-jects in communication and cooperation. Doctor-patient communication should focus on the future. Peer communication should respect each other and seek common points ground while reserving differences. Social communication should grasp the boundaries and eliminates prejudice. Only by using certain skills in com-munication and cooperation like this, can we express and realize medical humanities literacy and contribute to the stability of China's medical environment.
