"Are you sure there is really any hope of curing my dad's disease? To be honest, since my dad was diagnosed with this disease, I have asked six hospitals, and they all said that we can only try hospitalization for treatment, and we are not sure. . You said that there is more than 95% hope of cure. Are you telling the truth, or are you just saying that to deceive us into spending money on medical treatment here?"
This is actually very hurtful when asked face to face.
Some family members are very serious and often like to talk ugly things first.
In the eyes of doctors, such family members are often difficult to deal with and difficult to get along with.
"I have been practicing medicine for so many years and I have never deceived patients into doing unnecessary treatment. If I am really not sure, I will tell you bluntly. Also, this disease is not treated by me, but by the disease control or infectious disease hospital. rule."
Li Jingsheng answered word for word.
"That's good. What we fear most is that we will lose both our money and our money. As long as we can really cure my dad's disease, I am willing to spend more money. If we use up our family wealth, my dad's disease will be cured even more. The worse it is, or if we just hang around and live in pain and torture every day, then we would rather not treat it. We might as well take this money and accompany my dad to walk around and see what he should eat and drink. , accompany him through the final journey of life."
When the old man's son heard what Li Jingsheng said, he chose to believe it.
But there was a hint of danger in his tone and eyes.
This person may have a somewhat paranoid personality.
If Li Jingsheng deceives them into going to a designated hospital for treatment and defrauds them of all their property, and the old man's disease is not cured by then, this person is likely to do some extreme behavior.
Such as killing doctors.
"The cost of treating this disease shouldn't be very high. At least it's far from draining the family wealth as you said."
Li Jingsheng gave patients and their families a clear answer.
Treatment of tuberculosis mainly involves injections of anti-tuberculosis drugs. If it is not severe, it can be treated at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for free. In severe cases, treatment in a large hospital may cost 20,000 to 30,000 yuan, or even less, nearly 10,000 yuan.
This mainly depends on the condition.
If complications or other serious symptoms occur, some expensive drugs will be needed, and the cost of treatment will definitely be much higher.
"How much does it cost?"
the old man's daughter asked.
"Well... the old man's body is quite strong. If there are no other serious symptoms, he should be cured within 10,000 yuan." According to Li Jingsheng's understanding, the treatment of a mild condition is about 6,000 yuan, but considering the possibility There were fluctuations, so the quotes were higher.
Basically, in any medical institution, patients are quoted a high price rather than a low price.
If we take into account the patient's low willingness for treatment and poor family conditions, an upfront fee will be charged.
In fact, after the initial treatment is completed and the condition improves, the family members see hope and will find ways to raise money no matter how poor they are.
Doctors and nurses are not doing this to make money.
It’s about saving patients’ lives.
Some family members and patients, who are very poor themselves, may simply give up when they hear that treatment costs tens of thousands.
This situation is particularly unfortunate.
Therefore, medical staff sometimes actually have good intentions.
"Can it really be cured with only 10,000 yuan?"
The old man and a pair of children asked in unison.
Looking at this family of three, Li Jingsheng couldn't help but laugh.
"How much do you hope the treatment will cost?"
The old man's son smiled and said, "Ten thousand yuan is really not much."
"Doctor, is it true that only 10,000 yuan is enough to treat lung cancer?"
The female family member couldn't help but ask.
"Lung cancer? Who told you that your dad has lung cancer?"
Li Jingsheng asked, rolling his eyes.
"Isn't it? We went to a large hospital to see an authoritative expert. He said it was early-stage lung cancer, and the treatment cost would be at least 50,000 yuan. Considering the possibility of recurrence after surgery, the cost of radiotherapy and chemotherapy would be even more expensive. Three or four hundred thousand is possible."
This time the female family member finally revealed the truth.
Not only did they see her in a big hospital, they also diagnosed her with lung cancer.
After hearing this, Li Jingsheng thought it was extremely funny.
He never thought that one day he would have the opportunity to correct misdiagnosed cases in major hospitals.
"My preliminary diagnosis result is very likely to be tuberculosis. If you trust me, it is best to go to the disease control or infectious disease hospital for further examination and treatment now."
Li Jingsheng explained.
"By the way, you have probably been infected unfortunately. You must wear a mask when you come into contact with the old man in the future. You must also wear a mask when you come into contact with your husband, children, etc. to avoid spreading it to other family members. The main cause of tuberculosis The mode of transmission is droplet transmission.”
The three of them were extremely shocked when they heard the diagnosis result given by Li Jingsheng.
"No, not lung cancer?"
The old man looked at Li Jingsheng in surprise, his face full of doubt and disbelief.
In the eyes of patients, experts from large hospitals are definitely more trustworthy and authoritative.
Is a doctor in a small clinic more powerful than the authoritative director of a large hospital?
"I reiterate that my diagnosis is most likely tuberculosis."
Li Jingsheng said very seriously.
After the three of them looked at each other, the old man's son helped the old man up and said to Li Jingsheng, "Let's go over there to discuss it first."
"No problem, I have a mask here, please put it on."
Li Jingsheng each gave them a mask.
Tuberculosis is highly contagious. This is a clinic and we must try our best to prevent cross-transmission of infectious diseases to other customers and patients.
"Sister Tang, please disinfect the infusion room and examination room after you finish your work. Also, remember to wear a mask."
"clear."
Tang Ping agreed, finished the things at hand, and went in with disinfectant to disinfect.
Li Jingsheng sat behind the consultation table, quietly waiting for the family of three to discuss an answer.
I vaguely heard the old man saying, "Ten thousand yuan is not much. My retirement salary is more than 7,000 yuan a month. I can pay for it myself. I decided to go to the infectious disease hospital and give it a try as Dr. Li said."
"Dad, this is not a question of more money. Have you ever thought about what if you have lung cancer instead of tuberculosis, and your condition is delayed? Director Mu of the hospital said that we should consider radical surgery as soon as possible. , the longer it is delayed, the worse it will be.”
"Why don't we go to another big hospital for a re-examination? This Dr. Li seems to be really capable. As soon as we came in for examination, he said that the condition was serious. Then he said that I might have been infected with tuberculosis. I think it's really a little bit... It's like that. I usually have coughs, but in the past few days I've been feeling weak and don't want to move."
…
The three family members kept discussing in the rest area, trying to find the most beneficial and safe plan.
Li Jingsheng's cell phone rang at this time.
I took it out and saw that it was Mr. Tian of Litong Pharmaceutical.
Li Jingsheng raised the corners of his mouth and subconsciously looked at the clock on the wall.
Five forty-seven.
It's almost six o'clock.
This guy must have just checked the purchase list now.
Hehe, at this moment, at that moment, Li Jingsheng already had a new purchase channel, and he no longer had to suffer from this idleness.
Instead of connecting it, I just pressed mute and left it on the table.
Damn, I've been fucked by this guy many times, and this is the most extreme one.
It has been drying since yesterday.
I begged grandpa and sued grandma a lot, but it was no use.
Let this idiot be in a hurry!
The purchase volume of 20,000 yuan is already a considerable business for Litong Pharmaceutical.
As expected, the first call was not answered, and Mr. Tian immediately called the second one.
When have you ever seen this guy so enthusiastic?
Apart from getting the first batch of goods just after opening the business, I have never been enthusiastic about Li Jingsheng since then.
The second call was still not answered.
Mr. Tian was anxious and sent a text message.
"Boss Li, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, I just saw the purchase order you sent. Please call back after seeing the message, and we will make arrangements for you immediately."
Look at this face.
After discovering that Li Jingsheng's purchase order was as high as more than 20,000 yuan, Mr. Tian's attitude towards him had undergone a 180-degree change.
Such a big business was only discovered now because of his damn arrogance.
Selling for more than 20,000 yuan, the commission is already quite large.
Especially when performance pressure is high, this kind of large order is particularly important.
Mr. Tian was probably as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.
At this time, the old man and his children had already discussed a result.
The old man's son came over.
"Dr. Li, thank you for diagnosing my father. We discussed it and decided to go to another big hospital for another checkup tomorrow. Do you think it's okay?"
"It's absolutely fine. Remember, you must wear a mask and don't infect others."
Li Jingsheng could not force the patient to go to any hospital for treatment.
He feels particularly happy and has a sense of accomplishment when he can correct a misdiagnosed case, no matter where the patient chooses to receive treatment.
Due to the limited facilities of the small clinic, he can only make a preliminary diagnosis that the old man and his daughter may have tuberculosis.
If you want to confirm the diagnosis, you have to do pathology in a large hospital.
"Thank you! Thank you! Oh, by the way, how much does it cost to diagnose my father and sister? I will pay you now."
Although the old man's son is a little paranoid, he is not greedy for petty gains.
Keep giving what is due.
Such people are often very principled.
"Forget it if you don't charge for it. If you need to buy supplements or something in the future, you can take care of our clinic."
Li Jingsheng generally does not charge for consultation when he treats patients.
Basically, most clinics follow this solicitation model.
It's not a free clinic, it's just the general environment.
Patients with colds and fevers go to the drugstore, and the pharmacist guides them to buy medicine. They also only charge for the medicine, and it is impossible to charge an additional consultation fee.
Customers won't agree either.
"Absolutely, then let's say goodbye first!"
The old man's son and daughter, one on the left and the other on the right, supported the old man as he walked out.
"Oh, by the way, if you go to a big hospital for a checkup, I suggest you do a sputum test to look for acid-fast bacilli. The results can usually be obtained on the same day. The main reason is that the old man is old and has delayed it for so long. I am afraid that he will As the disease worsens, the difficulty and cost of treatment will increase."
Li Jingsheng said to the two family members.
"Ok, thank you."
The family remembers it.
There are many ways to detect tuberculosis, and sputum detection of acid-fast bacilli is the fastest.
What is slower is the culture of sputum tuberculosis bacteria.
Then the more popular ppd test and T cell spot test take three to five days.
The T-cell spot test requires CT-guided puncture to obtain pathological specimens. The old man made it clear that he did not agree to lung puncture.
Many patients feel scared when they hear the word puncture.
In fact, under normal circumstances, as long as the doctor is skilled, nothing will happen. Relatively speaking, the four major punctures are relatively safe.
