Chapter 1138: Chapter 449: No Good Outcome from Going Head-to-Head, Vice Director Pang

"Director Lou is here!"

Director Fang noticed Director Lou at the door right away and quickly greeted him.

Being able to hold the position of the hospital office director for many years without being displaced indicates her exceptional skills.

The role of the office director is akin to a minister in the president’s cabinet.

The will and directives of the president, no matter the detail, mostly fall under the responsibility of the office director to implement. The coordination between various departments in the hospital is also often led by the office.

Speaking of this, it’s necessary to mention the vice directors.

First of all, the vice directors hold a high status and are also hospital-level leaders. Secondly, directly understanding a vice director as the president’s secretary is very incorrect.

In many cases, a vice director can even act on behalf of the president’s duties and powers.

A knowledgeable doctor would never address a vice director as a certain president’s assistant but would directly address them as a certain president.

Automatically omitting the word assistant.

Just like many rookie doctors and nurses, who like to call everyone teacher.

In reality, calling a chief physician teacher might make him very unhappy. Addressing him as Director so-and-so is the most prudent way.

"Isn’t it that our department caused trouble? It even made you and Director Yin work so late." Director Lou’s intentional way of admitting fault at the start is quite clever.

Adults never argue over mere words; what they value the most are tangible benefits.

"Oh, Director Tang, why are you here too?"

Upon seeing Director Tang Fei, Director Fang immediately stood up to welcome her. The attitude towards Director Lou seemed enthusiastic on the surface but was far less courteous than the treatment of Director Tang Fei.

At any time, strength is the greatest confidence behind an adult’s words.

Director Lou is here now in the capacity of a department director; the strength of the Emergency Department directly decides his standing.

The strength of a department is primarily reflected in its ability to generate revenue. Today, revenue generation has become a multi-faceted metric, including the CMI index of the department’s main doctors. The higher this index, the higher the capability of the department to diagnose complex cases. Naturally, the department’s doctors’ reputation will also rise, and outpatient volume is unlikely to be low.

As long as there are enough patients to admit, the revenue is generally considerable.

This index also affects the higher-ups’ allocation of prepaid medical insurance amounts to the hospital.

This is also an important revenue metric.

Today, without the support of insurance funds, a major hospital could collapse in about three months.

At least over seventy percent of patients use insurance for their hospital stays, which is the hospital’s main source of income.

Besides these, the strength of a department also includes the number of SCI papers published by doctors, impact factor, and research achievements. For a comprehensive medical college like Tu Ya that integrates medical education, teaching achievements are also considered.

In summary, each indicator for measuring the strength of a department is extremely challenging.

In terms of revenue generation, the number of renowned doctors, young talented doctors, research achievements, research capability, and the number of SCI papers, Pediatrics far surpasses the Emergency Department.

This is an important reason why Director Fang is so courteous when seeing Director Tang Fei.

If Director Xie from Surgery or Director Tan from Internal Medicine came over, Director Fang’s attitude would be even more exaggerated.

Directors Xie, Tan, and Zhang have a status that is almost only slightly lower than that of a deputy president.

"I just happened to have something to report to the hospital and came over with them."

Director Tang Fei didn’t specify what the matter was.

"No problem, go ahead and discuss your matters first! I happen to need to handle some departmental affairs." Director Tang Fei pulled up a chair and sat down by herself.

Director Fang personally made her tea and also made a cup for Director Lou, Deputy Director Han, and Zhou Can each.

"Please sit for a moment; I’ll invite the Vice Director and Director Xin to come over."

Today’s medical disturbance, to be honest, the Emergency Department had no issues with the diagnostic procedure. No matter how fiercely the family protested, they ultimately complied with the police’s mediation and took the body to the funeral parlor for cremation.

Now, it’s become an internal hospital issue instead.

A conflict of interest between several departments. How to specifically reconcile it is not something Director Fang can decide alone.

For example, the Security Department is genuinely overseen by the vice director.

Among the various duties of a vice director, one is to assist the president in ensuring the safety, sanitation, and other administrative management works of all hospital office, teaching, and experimental facilities. Thus, the Security Department falls under their management.

At the same time, the Security Department is a subordinate department of the General Affairs Department.

The General Affairs Department also manages the Security Department.

The intricate interest relationships among these are like tangled tree roots.

However, every hospital has its own reality.

Take Tu Ya for example; the affairs of the Security Department are basically dictated by the vice director.

There’s a rumor that the deputy director overseeing logistics and general affairs is the vice director’s uncle. He is only three years older than the vice director.

So there’s no promotion between them; they both rose through their own merits.

At most, the deputy director of logistics and general affairs gave some feasible care when the vice director entered the hospital. Of course, who actually took care of whom, only the parties involved would know.

In any case, a small Security Department involves the interests of a vice president and a vice director, which implies formidable underlying power.

This is why, despite the poor performance of hospital security, no one proposes any rectification suggestions.
