Evidence-based medicine in China

summary:
This article shows, recently, people have become aware that Chinese medicine is more and more important to their health. They did a lot of work to this information. They also made some committee to give people this knowledge as much as they can. But it seems didn’t make sense. Most patients went to the small hospitals which are in the countryside. Doctors in the countryside didn’t get too much of this knowledge. They can’t enjoy these resourse enough. People should focus on these doctors who work in the countryside. They need more knowledge to cure patients.

Reaction:
Now more and more people realize Chinese medicine is more important to their health. More and more patients would like to see the Chinese medical doctor. Doctors who work in the big city, get good education. But doctors who work in the countryside have less education than those who work in the city. That might be because of the money. In the big city, you can earn more money. So most doctors would like to stay in the big city. But patients in the countryside also need to be cured. And if the doctors are not good enough, they are not knowledgeable. That would be bad for the medical system, also for the patients. We should give more chance to these doctors who work in the countryside about learning more medical knowledge. We can make some measures to encourage doctors who work in the countryside learn more.
