On May 22, the news that Langfang People's Hospital in Hebei Province returned the nucleic acid testing fee aroused widespread concern. According to the financial department of Langfang People's Hospital, the hospital began to refund fees to citizens who received messages on May 20. At present, most adults have completed the refund, and the refund work is gradually expanding to teenagers and children. This move has not only caused heated discussion in Hebei Province, but also triggered discussion nationwide, and many places have begun to implement similar refund policies.
On May 20, some citizens in Langfang City successively received short message notices from Langfang People's Hospital, which said: "The nucleic acid testing fee from 2020 to 2021 will be refunded according to the requirements of the superior, and please take your ID card to the financial department of the city hospital to refund the fee on the working days from May 20 to June 20." At first, many citizens suspected that this was a fraud message, However, after the consultation and confirmation of the 12345 service hotline, we learned that this was really the real notice of the hospital.
The staff of the Finance Department of Langfang People's Hospital said that several refund notices had been sent earlier, but no one came to handle them and did not cause widespread concern. After this notice was issued, the number of citizens who came to consult and handle refunds increased significantly, and the refund scene became very busy. The staff specially reminded that only citizens who have received SMS notification and have valid certificates within the specified time period can enjoy the refund service.
In fact, it is not the first time for the refund of nucleic acid testing fees in Hebei Province. As early as March 2022, the Audit Bureau of Changli County, Qinhuangdao City announced that, according to the requirements of the superior department, the fees for general screening and testing of outpatient fever patients will be refunded. Similarly, the nucleic acid testing fees of inpatients and caregivers should also be refunded. This policy clearly stipulates that there is no limit on the number of refunds, and the fees will be refunded after several tests.
In addition, as early as February 2021, Tianjin also released the Implementation Plan on the Refund of Previous Fees for "Due Diligence" of New Coronavirus Nucleic Acid Testing, which refunds the fees for nucleic acid testing of patients and caregivers who meet the requirements of "Due Diligence" during the epidemic. The refund process requires citizens to go to the original payment institution for refund with relevant medical records, ID cards, medical insurance cards and payment vouchers.
Citizens in many parts of the country who meet the conditions can take their ID cards to designated hospitals for refund procedures.
All refunds mainly cover nucleic acid testing fees from 2020 to 2021.
It is reported that only patients who meet the conditions and receive a text message can be refunded.
Then, Tianjin has formulated a detailed refund scheme, so that citizens can go through the refund formalities through the original payment method, and need to provide relevant information such as ID cards and bills.
At present, most adults have already completed the refund, and today they have begun to handle the refund for teenagers and children.
However, the specific implementation of this policy may vary from region to region, and it is necessary to refer to the relevant local notices and regulations.
The refund policy for nucleic acid testing is a powerful manifestation of the Party and the government's service tenet of caring for the people.
It is also to respond to national policies and give back the support and cooperation of the general public during the epidemic.
The implementation of these policies has undoubtedly reduced the economic burden of the people.
The implementation of the refund policy for nucleic acid testing has triggered discussion among netizens. Some netizens have said that their regions have not received similar notices, and they hope that this policy can be promoted nationwide as soon as possible. For example, some netizens mentioned that "Taizhou, Jiangsu has not yet notified" and called on relevant departments to implement the refund policy as soon as possible to reduce the burden of the masses.
The implementation of the refund policy for nucleic acid testing is not only a liquidation of past expenses, but also a concern for the people. This policy has reduced the economic burden of citizens to a certain extent, reflecting the importance of the government and medical institutions on public health and rights.
The future nationwide promotion is just around the corner. It is suggested that relevant departments all over the country learn from the experience of Langfang City, Qinhuangdao City and Tianjin City, implement the refund work as soon as possible, and strengthen publicity and communication to ensure information transparency and public awareness.
