"There are also designated hospitals for ex servicemen!" On January 15, at the Wu'an Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Hebei Province, ex serviceman Wu Zengliang, guided by military support volunteers, went to the "special window for servicemen and ex servicemen" to go through hospitalization procedures and stay in the wards of servicemen and ex servicemen.

"Set up designated hospitals for preferential treatment of ex servicemen. On the basis of basic medical security benefits, ex servicemen and other ex servicemen can enjoy medical subsidies and preferential treatment of ex servicemen according to regulations to effectively reduce the medical burden." The leader of the Bureau of Veterans Affairs of Wu'an City introduced that the designated hospital for preferential treatment of ex servicemen in this city was inaugurated at the end of December 2023, It is a special military support project jointly created by the Municipal Bureau of Veterans Affairs and the Health Bureau.

Wu'an TCM Hospital is a modern comprehensive TCM hospital integrating medical treatment, first aid, teaching, scientific research and rehabilitation. The ex servicemen and other preferential objects can enjoy the preferential treatment policy of "one reduction, four exemptions and three priorities" when they go to the hospital for medical treatment, that is, 20% of the medical examination fee, free registration fee, free outpatient fee, free hospitalization deposit, free parking fee, priority of medical treatment, priority of taking medicine and priority of hospitalization.

Li Haigang, secretary of the hospital's Party committee, said that the establishment of designated hospitals for preferential treatment of ex servicemen is of great significance to improve the medical security policy system of "insurance+relief+subsidies+preferential treatment" for the preferential treatment objects. They will give full play to the unique advantages of traditional Chinese medicine, provide more scientific, accurate, convenient and efficient medical preferential services, and further enhance the sense of honor, gain and happiness of veterans.
