The two sessions of the National People's Congress are imminent, and news has just been received that a proposal by a NPC deputy has aroused widespread concern.
This is the suggestion of Tuo Qingming, a deputy to the National People's Congress and president of the Sichuan Ya'an City Education Examination Institute. He suggestedFree medical care is provided to citizens under the age of 6 and over the age of 75.
This proposal has received the attention and praise of the majority of netizens. Some netizens said that if the proposal can be implemented, it will be a huge burden reduction for most families at present, which will help my country make further attempts to free medical care for all.
Coincidentally, a year ago, at the two sessions, a member of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) put forward a similar proposal.
Gan Huatian, a member of the 14th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and a professor at West China Hospital of Sichuan University, once revealed to ** that he would submit "a proposal on listing free medical care for all as a basic national policy, and gradually promoting free medical care for children under 6 years old and the elderly over 80 years old as soon as possible", suggesting that "free medical care for all should be listed as a basic national policy as soon as possible, and a specific implementation timetable should be formulated to put it at the highest level of the entire national policy system in terms of institutional arrangements."
Judging from the proposals of the two experts, the experts and scholars attending the meeting are very clear about the current demands of the people. Know what the people need, what they are concerned about, and the pain points are in**.
In Gan Huatian's view, the gradual promotion of free medical care for children under the age of 6 and the elderly over 80 years old is to protect the life and health of the "old and young", an important embodiment of the people-centered development idea, and an important measure to actively alleviate fertility anxiety and cope with the aging of the population.
In the face of such proposals from experts, netizens are cheering.
More netizens suggested that the age of the elderly should be relaxed, and it is recommended to be over 60 years old.
Gan Huatian pointed out that "free medical care for all" does not mean that it is completely free of charge, nor does it mean that it is completely borne by the state finance, but it is a national medical insurance system with a higher level of protection and a very low proportion of individual payment.
In short, if the proposal is passed, the current pressure on fertility and pension will be greatly reduced, and it will also help to improve the happiness index of the whole people, and further promote the increase of fertility.
What do you think of this proposal, tell me about it.
