    The medical technology in the United States is relatively good, and now the most developed medicine is the United States, whether it is medical technology, or medical facilities are at the forefront of the world, many hospitals in the United States are affiliated with universities or medical research institutions, and because of the abundance of medical practitioners, doctors in addition to their own work, there are many opportunities to contact scientific research and teaching. In contrast, there is a shortage of medical institutions and talents in China, medical staff are too busy with business to take care of scientific research, and basic medical research is out of touch with clinical practice, so medical research cannot be improved.

    Medical facilities. In the United States, non-profit hospitals run by charitable or religious groups dominate, followed by local** hospitals and private for-profit hospitals, which accounted for about 62%-20%-18% in 2003. The federal health system itself is not open to the public, and they are the military health system managed by the Department of Defense and the Veterans Health Administration, which provides health services to veterans.

    The Indian Health Service (IHS, part of the Department of Health and Human Services) provides medical services only to Native Americans and Alaska Natives, and also employs private health service providers on a contract basis to provide health services exclusively to them. Although non-profit hospitals for the general public can obtain ** tax exemption, they still charge high medical fees for patients, especially those who do not have health insurance, which has also caused ethical disputes and legal proceedings for these hospitals.

    Although hospitals provide emergency and outpatient services, they are primarily for inpatients. Alternative specialist clinics include the "surgicenter", which provides same-day services for patients who do not need to be hospitalized after surgery, and hospice hospices, which provide hospice services for terminally ill patients who are expected to live less than 6 months to live.

    Hello, dear. Americans ask for money to see a doctor in the United States. It costs money to see a doctor in the United States, and the cost of medical care in the United States is extremely high, and it is absolutely unaffordable without insurance.

    Generally, when Americans work, the company will pay a part of it, and deduct a part from their personal income to pay for medical insurance, and when they see a doctor, the insurance burden is mostly on their own, and they pay a small part, similar to domestic medical insurance. People who do not have a job and have money can buy commercial insurance on their own. People who don't have a job and don't have money can't afford to see a doctor, and only emergency can see an emergency, and the emergency department in the United States can be treated first without paying.

    After the end, the sky-high medical bill will be sent to you, and you can repay it slowly in installments. Or apply for a subsidy waiver, but it depends on luck.

    You don't need to pay upfront to see a doctor in the U.S., but after seeing a doctor, the patient will receive a bill that records the amount he needs to pay.

    The waiting time is not short, about 1 to 2 months. If the patient refuses to pay, the hospital has the right to sue the patient, and the patient's credit score will be lowered. So, if you don't have insurance and go for a serious illness, what awaits you after you are discharged from the hospital is an unknown fear that you don't know how much you'll end up paying.

    If it is a large amount of money, it is very difficult for many low- and middle-income families, and some people may have to break the bank.

    If there is health insurance in the United States, then getting sick is not very expensive, and working people can accept it. But if there is no health insurance, then the American medical system is a gold sucker, no matter how much money you have, you can absorb all the money, and the same is true in the United States, which is often said to be due to illness and poverty due to illness in China.

    If you don't have medical insurance, you can see a common cold in the United States, at least one or two hundred, and the common appendectomy surgery in China can't be completed without 40,000 in the United States. If you are sick in the United States, no matter how sick you are, your first reaction is not to call an ambulance!

    You can see a doctor, bring your passport, and the hospital will not let you be admitted without a passport.

    In Chinatowns in big cities such as New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco, there are many clinics opened by Chinese, ranging from bruises, otolaryngology to surgery, acupuncture, etc., and the fees are low.

    Appointments are required to see a doctor in the United States. First of all, you need to choose a primary doctor, and before the appointment, the medical office may send you a copy of the information that new patients need to register and fill out, and return it in a timely manner after filling out the information. If you are accepted as a new patient, you will also need to tell the name of the primary doctor selected by the health insurance company so that the insurance company will pay.

    Secondly, once the appointment time is confirmed, it must be on time and cannot be late, if you can't go for some reason, you must cancel or re-book 24 hours in advance, otherwise you will be fined. Thirdly, you must bring your ID and health insurance card with you when you go to the doctor.

    If you are involved in an accident such as a fall, bruise, cut, gunshot wound, car accident or heart attack, and you need help, you should call 911 Emergency Help** immediately and call an ambulance. As long as you dial the number, police cars and ambulances will arrive in time, even without speaking.

    In the past, he was so cheerful and active, shuttling through the fairs of foreign aid projects, making the desert on TV, and making a variety of Chinese vegetables grow in the African rainforest. And now, in the face of a suddenly quiet living environment, he always doesn't know what to say.

    How many times have I done what I had to do for my daughter. What can be seen is still a pair of expectant eyes.

    How many times have I really wanted to turn that lonely and toiling back and say to him, "Dad, I love you!" However, a girlish reserve and cowardice blocked it, and in the end, I didn't say anything.

    In the summer, I finally received the notice to go abroad, and I forced my excitement and nostalgia to come to my dad. He was hanging in the hospital on a drip, and he looked at me with a look of great nostalgia and anticipation for a long time, and said, "Child, you have grown up, go fly, but you have to pay more attention to yourself."

    Take care of yourself, too! ..."I can't say anything.

    With a feeling of unease, I slowly walked out the door, tears falling uncontrollably.

    Am I just leaving? No! I can't go like this, I want to go back, and I want to make it clear to his old man the emotions I have suppressed and buried for so many years.

    So, I burst out of my heart with an eager call:

    Dad, Dad! "Ran to the door of the ward.

    Dad turned his head into the bed, stretched out his wrinkled hand, and waved it at me. I, in the end, didn't say anything.

    For three years, that hand, that dusty hand, has always been in my heart! Disguise! ......

    In the summer of this year, I finally returned to China to visit my family, and with how many thoughts and dreams in three years, and how many feelings and how much love I had for three years, I flew to my father's side. Dad's hair turned grayer, and his eyes were full of joy. It was a very peaceful life, but suddenly it became lively and active.
