Doctor: It's reasonable to perform surgery on yourself.

“Report the cost of surgery!”

The director of brain surgery breathed a sigh of relief.

All surgical expenses can be traced back to their source, and there is no possibility of any mistakes on the part of the hospital.

“What’s the problem with the cost?”

The director of brain surgery then asked: "We have already discussed with you before the operation. If it is an ordinary craniotomy and clipping operation, the cost of the operation is about 10,000, but the trauma is large and the patient's physical condition is already very bad. The money spent on hospitalization and prognosis may exceed two hundred thousand.

“But if it is interventional embolization, since imported micro-aneurysm clips are used, the cost is around 5,000 yuan each, and a total of three are used... plus other interventional instruments, materials, etc., the total cost of the operation is 4,000 yuan. Seven thousand.

"We have listed every chargeable item according to your requirements. Are there any questions?"

The family members ignored the director of brain surgery and went straight to Xu Qiu: "Doctor Xu, you have to provide us with justice!"

"Well, tell me what's unreasonable." Xu Qiu said.

It seems that the family members don't trust Green City No. 1 Hospital... Fortunately, his reputation can still calm the crowd.

"Right here!"

Looking along the family member's fingers, Xu Qiu noticed the items at the bottom of the list. What the family member marked was "disposable surgical gloves".

"What's the problem with this?" Xu Qiu didn't understand.

The family members asked angrily: "What are these gloves for? Why are they so expensive?"

"The material of sterile gloves is also quite special, and the hospital uses imported products..." Xu Qiu explained.

"That's true, but why are there seven pairs? Can he wear so many gloves?"

"Um?"

Xu Qiu was stunned for a moment, what is the problem?

The family members reacted immediately and asked quickly: "Wait a minute, why do you need to wear gloves?"

"Wear sterile gloves during surgery."

"You wear it or he wears it?" The family member pointed to the patient on the bed.

Xu Qiu vaguely felt something was wrong and said, "Doctor Dai."

The family member patted his thigh and said, "That's right. Why should we pay for the gloves your doctors wear?"

At this moment, the entire intensive care unit was silent.

Didi didi——

Various life instruments were running, while the doctors stared with big eyes and small eyes, their expressions showed confusion, and seemed to have a hint of understanding.

It seems... makes sense?

…

There was silence in the ward for a few seconds. The director of brain surgery was the first to react. He suppressed his anger and said: "According to regulations, sterile gloves must be worn during surgery, otherwise the patient will become infected and the surgery will be more dangerous."

If it weren't for fear of causing trouble, the director would have wanted to directly ask, "Then I won't wear gloves to perform the surgery and let's see how long it takes for the patient to die."

The family members were quite reluctant and continued to ask: "Then why are there no charges for surgical gowns?"

"It's also collected. They are all included in the disposable surgical supplies, which is what you mentioned above." The director of brain surgery explained while suppressing his emotions.

"Let me tell you, isn't this because the fees are not transparent? How come your doctors have to pay for the clothes and gloves they wear?" The family members made the final complaint, as if they had grasped the handle.

After a pause, he continued: "I will only pay for what Dr. Xu did, and you doctors will pay for the rest!"

Xu Qiu finally finished the examination at this time... The patient's condition was much better than expected. He had woken up last night and could try to resume his diet at noon today. Except for the parts that had been irreversibly damaged before the operation, there were almost no sequelae.

Moreover, the surgical damage is reduced by 50%. It can be said that no one can do it better than Xu Qiu.

"Disposable consumables..."

While Xu Qiu was inspecting, he was also paying attention to the complaints from family members. At first, he was prepared for it, but when he heard what happened later, he suddenly felt a little pity for Greentown No. 1 Hospital.

It must be said that the director of brain surgery’s initial concerns were reasonable.

Even though the patient was rescued and showed an incredible recovery speed, his family members still made things difficult for him in every possible way.

If Xu Qiu had not intervened and let people from Greentown No. 1 Hospital perform the surgery, even if the patient did not die, he would have spent two to three hundred thousand yuan in the ICU, and the patient would probably lose the ability to take care of himself...

At that time, it will no longer be about charging fees. The department director and the surgeon will have to go to court at least three or four times.

"this……"

Xu Qiu interrupted the family members and explained: "The charges at Greentown No. 1 Hospital are reasonable. If you go to any hospital, you will be charged for disposable consumables."

The family member's eyes widened and he said angrily: "In other words, all hospitals are equally dark?"

"..."

Xu Qiu suddenly felt like a scholar meeting a soldier.

However, after so many years of self-cultivation, he still maintained a faint smile and said calmly: "During the operation, the biggest risk is infection. Whether it is surgical gowns or sterile gloves, the purpose is to avoid infection as much as possible.

“Doctors wear these things to protect patients. Essentially, it’s the patient’s need, not the doctor’s willingness to wear them.

"The most important point is that if you don't wear gloves and are unwilling to spend more than ten yuan, then you can choose to spend hundreds of thousands more for subsequent anti-infective treatment."

It doesn't matter whether these words convinced the family, but Xu Qiu's last sentence clearly frightened them.

Money is the truth that these people believe in. A dozen dollars can be exchanged for hundreds of thousands, and even something black can become white.

"That's it..." The family members were terrified.

The director of neurosurgery sighed silently.

Fortunately, Xu Qiu was here...

If the family didn't trust Xu Qiu, this matter would definitely not be so easy to resolve. If they were to handle it, it would take several days and there would be no result.

The family member who could even ask "Why do patients have to pay for doctors to wear gloves" is not a good person to talk to.

"Huh..." The other people in Greentown First Hospital also let out a deep breath.

Fortunately, the patient recovered well. If he died on the stage or hadn't woken up yet, their hospital would probably be in turmoil for the next few months!

...

After the rounds, the doctors of Greentown First Hospital returned to their posts.

Xu Qiu returned to the hotel to prepare the afternoon lecture courseware.

"Finally it's done..."

More than three hours later, Xu Qiu showed a relaxed smile on his face.

Buzz--

It was at this time that the phone vibrated.

The caller was Wang Shengde.

"Dean." Xu Qiu answered the phone.

"Haha, did I bother you?" In the past month, Wang Shengde's voice sounded like he was a dozen years younger, with a brisk tone.

"I just finished my work... Is there anything?"

Wang Shengde knew he was very busy, so he usually didn't call.

"Yes, of course, you were at the First Affiliated Hospital, did you rescue a patient and perform brain stem hematoma removal surgery!"

"That's right." Xu Qiu's mind popped up the appearance of patient No. 2, and the parents were particularly sad.
