Director Ye,
I apologize for troubling you with this poorly written letter amidst your busy schedule. On the train, I encountered twenty to thirty young doctors, presumably on their way to attend a medical conference.
They mentioned that for academic lectures at medical conferences, one can sign in and sign out simultaneously and then leave the venue, thereby earning credits. They said that some sign in themselves, while others have their spouses, children, or clinic nurses sign in and out for them to obtain the credits.
Moreover, during medical lectures held at major local hospitals (editor's note: likely major local hospitals), former and current presidents and vice presidents, as well as resourceful doctors, do not need to attend in person; someone else helps them earn the credits.
When organized by the medical association, those with connections can earn credits without attending. Additionally, they discussed how to make money and exploit the health insurance system along the way, without any discussion on medical issues . It was disheartening and nauseating to hear them shamelessly discuss such topics in public. Where has medical ethics gone? With such unethical and unambitious doctors, it's unfortunate for the public who rely on them.
By paying annual fees to the medical association and local medical associations, one can renew their license after a few years and practice medicine. Isn't this equivalent to buying a license with money? It's akin to compulsory national education where paying tuition fees earns you a diploma. To put it bluntly, what about midterm and final exams? (Editor's note: implying no exams, just paying for certificates.)
Therefore, I hope that during lectures at the association, a small test or something similar could be implemented to prevent proxy sign-ins and simultaneous sign-ins and sign-outs, allowing people to go home. I hope the officials at the Department of Health can take some time to observe the medical lectures organized by the association to understand the situation fully.
Improving the quality of medical practice will benefit the public, especially those in rural areas.

Email to Director Ye: Doctors on Train Only Talk about Money
