The payment of NCMS is all "voluntary", why do village cadres come to collect it?What's in it for you?
With the arrival of the payment period for NCMS in 2024, village cadres in rural areas have begun to take action to urge villagers to pay NCMS as soon as possible.
What is the reason for this?
"New Rural Cooperative Medical System", the full name of the new rural cooperative medical care, is an important livelihood policy launched by China to protect rural residents and prevent them from becoming poor due to illness.
Its implementation has significantly reduced the economic pressure on farmers to see a doctor, and has also effectively increased the average life expectancy of rural residents.
Although NCMS is a policy that benefits the people, in recent years,However, the number of insured people continues to decline
Every year, when the NCMS starts to pay fees, village cadres and schools will actively urge them to pay, which makes people wonder: why do village cadres frequently urge farmers to participate in the insurance when it is supposed to be their personal freedom?
We need to understand that there are many reasons for the decline in the number of NCMS contributors. For example,In recent years, the payment standard of NCMS has been rising, farmers' understanding and support for NCMS are not deep enough, and the reimbursement policy of NCMS has not benefited farmers as expectedWait a minute.
These reasons are for the farmersResistance arose when it came to paying the billsAs a result, the participation rate of NCMS is not high.
So, what is the reason why village cadres frequently urge NCMS to pay?We were fortunate to interview an unnamed village cadre, who revealed to us what was behind the scenes.
1. NCMS is not only to ensure the health of farmers, but also an important means to build village development.
If most of the farmers do not participate in NCMS, it is possible if they get sickLack of financial security and lack of timely access to medical care can lead to the loss of tranquility and development of the entire village。Therefore, the village cadres are urging the NCMS to pay for the prosperity of the whole village.
2. NCMS is the embodiment of the village cadres' concern and love for the villagers.
NCMS can be used for patients with serious illnessesProvide high reimbursement of medical expenses to prevent families from becoming impoverished due to illness。The village cadres urged the villagers to pay the NCMS in the hope that the villagers would be able to enjoy this kind of guarantee.
3. NCMS is also an assessment item for village cadres.
NCMSIt is part of the policy of benefiting farmersVillage officials need to ensure that every villager can enjoy the benefits of this policy. Therefore, many localities have begun to include the work of NCMS in the year-end assessment and salary assessment.
4. Urging the delivery of NCMS is also the responsibility of village cadres for rural development.
By urging the NCMS, village cadres canIntroduce more medical resources to rural areas, which can not only provide farmers with more adequate medical security, but alsoPromote the healthy development of society in rural areas
In general, behind the village cadres' reminder of the NCMS, in factThey are concerned about the future of farmers and responsible for rural development。They understand that the well-being of the peasants is the only way to promote the prosperity of the village.
Of course, it is necessary to call for NCMS, butIn the process of collection, we should also pay attention to ways and means, and try to be warm, friendly and rational from the perspective of the villagers as much as possible。In this way, we can truly let the policy of benefiting the people of NCMS take root and allow more farmers to benefit from it.
Here, we also hope that every village cadre can do their part in the health of farmers, and we also look forward to itNCMS will be able to gain the understanding and support of more farmers as soon as possibleand really play its value.
