China's proposed medical practitioner blacklist

While the international pharmaceutical giants GlaxoSmithKline and Sanofi have successively disclosed "briaching doors" in China, Shaanxi Fuping Maternal and Child Health Hospital doctors are also continuing to ferment suspected cases of selling infants. Frequent negative reports on doctors are reported in newspapers. On the 10th, Deng Liqiang, director of the Legal Affairs Department of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, said that entrusted by the National Health and Family Planning Commission, the association has officially started the regular assessment of licensed physicians. While publicizing the assessment results, the doctors are "but not relevant" and the reasons are also expected to be publicized. . This means that in the biennial assessment, doctors who fail to pass the medical ethics issue will be included in the “black list”. Doctors with serious medical ethics problems should add "lifetime forbidden medical practitioners" in the "Practitioner's Law."

At present, the number of practicing physicians in China exceeds 2 million. Once the “black list” system is established, information of more than 2 million practicing physicians will be “reserved at the end of the record.” Physicians with medical ethics problems will even go to other regions to practice and enter the local health department. As long as medical institutions log in to related information sites, they can see the doctor's “historical issues” at a glance. Deng Liqiang said frankly that the current "Practicing Doctors Act" does not prohibit the doctors in question from having a life-long doctor, and it is necessary to establish related regulations with Fu Ping's infant trafficking case as an opportunity. He said that this case is a wake-up call for medical professionals: Medical personnel should strengthen professional ethics and self-discipline management, improve moral standards and service levels, and provide patients with better medical services.
