Objective To explore the medical insurance quota payment of dialysis treatment for outpatients with end-stage renal disease in Chengdu from following aspects, evaluation indexes and reasonable amount, so as to provide scientific basis for the payment of single disease. Methods A questionnaire survey was conducted to collect the cost information of patients, and to formulate the assignment of evaluation indexes according to the therapeutic principles and statistical results; Delphi method was adopted to determine the assignment and the standard of quota payment. Results A total of 17 dialysis organizations approved by Chengdu municipal medical insurance were involved in this study. Of 700 questionnaires distributed, 686 were retrieved. After excluding 26 questionnaires for incomplete filling and incorrect treatment information, a total of 660 questionnaires were included actually, accounted for 94.28% of all informants. The results of survey showed that, the hemodialysis treatment rate accounted for 84% (555/660) of all informants, while the peritoneal dialysis treatment rate accounted for 16% (105/660). By assessing the project assignment of outpatient dialysis treatment, the minimum annual payment of hemodialysis was RMB 118 242.75 yuan, while that of peritoneal dialysis was RMB 96 498.00 yuan. Conclusion The quota payment of outpatient dialysis shows b evidence after adopting the treatment project assignment. The grading quota payment of outpatient dialysis enables the medical insurance fund to be more reasonably used.
During the medical rescue after Wenchuan earthquake, based on the design and implementation of the management process of blood purification equipment, we gave the top priority to those patients with post-disaster crush syndrome to ensure their hemodialytic treatment. Through strict management of blood purification technology, the outcomes of these patients have been fundamentally improved and the incidence of complications was substantially reduced. Safe and effective hemodialytic treatment have been administered to 77 patients with crush syndrome (813 case-times).
In this article, the first time use of continuous veno-venous hemofiltration(CVVH) combined with toxic absorption for the treatment of a crush syndrome patient injured in earthquake is described. Correct therapeutic regimen, close observation and prescription condition are crucial for the success of management. The evidence for the application of this method is also discussed in detail.
