Health newspaper: Don't let the helicopter rescue and become the rescue to the rich
Xiao Hua ( Civil servant) According to the reports of newspaper, Beijing 120 will bring helicopter within and meet an urgent need to rescue the range. The accident happens on the mountain region, scenic spot or expressway had and is stopped up such as meeting, 120 helicopters will be put into rescuing. The medical worker can treat the wounded on the plane. At present, the relevant expenses are calculated and has not decided yet, but the one that can affirm now is to " charge by the hour " . Set up the helicopter and rescue the system, can be in the special environment and in the moment, shorten and rescue time greatly, improve and rescue the result, actually this was a good thing. But even so, or let people have much worry. The reason is that not free that the helicopter rescues, but charge. Before this, Beijing 999 first-aid centre start, rescue and give first aid specialized plane, transferring from one hospital to another between the cities when being critical to use mainly for condition, use is an ordinary fixed wing plane public affair plane, 100,000 yuan of lowest expenses for once. Gather around, take place the accident include in the helicopter and meet an urgent need and rescue the range at the expressway that stop up mountain region, scenic spot now, if consult the specialized plane of rescue in the past, it is probably not low to charge. This has to let people have three to worry, first, the accident happens on meeting the mountain region, scenic spot or expressway had and is stopped up, should rescue by the helicopter, but because the wounded is the poor, can't afford the helicopter and rescue the expenses, whether can not need the helicopter to rescue then. Second, some rich person because rich, mind what does it spend money, on condition that shouldn't use the helicopter to rescue, but rescue by the helicopter, thus take up the valuable resources that the helicopter rescued. Third, for pursue profit, 120 will in may not need the situation that the helicopter rescues, but rescue by the helicopter. Such worry is not surplus. In fact there was dispute regarding rescue and should charge by a helicopter in last stage, that is at about 20 o'clock on April 3, 39 donkey friends are stranded in mountaineering of mountain of cat's ear of Beijing Fangshan district four horse's ditch. Alert kind of more than 300 personses rescue, open the helicopter how police set out for the first time, succeed in rescuing. In this rescue, has nearly already formed the common understanding, such rescue shouldn't charge. Because police rescue and rescue on behalf of the government, because the government is supported by the taxpayer, the duty of the government is life, property, freedom and security of utilizing public strength to guarantee everybody. So set out the responsibility to the limit that the helicopter should fulfil oneself while rescuing, should not charge again. Certainly have very big difference to start the helicopter with last time in Beijing in this helicopter rescues the system, one is medical unit, one is police who represent the government; The medical unit will support by one's own charge, and police totally rely on taxpayers to support. But even so, we should see medical unit have very big difference with enterprise, they can't be in order to pursue profits as the ultimate goal, should regard healing the wounded, rescue the dying as one's own pursuit, regard social benefit as the main goal. So can't put emphasis on charging to rescue simply to the helicopter, let alone because charge high and let people unable to afford to bear, or it is only a kind of rescue of the rich's to become. So, it should be double cautious that the related departments rescue and charge to the helicopter, bring such funds within the financial funds range, even can't do, have to charge, should consider from the range which the people can bear, carry on the hearing more or less in charging, on the basis of replenishing in the government, confirm the expenses standard.
