On December 5th, the National Health and Wellness Commission held a press conference at the Bashan Central Health Center in Zhongxian County, Chongqing, to introduce the relevant measures to deepen the implementation of grassroots health services for the convenience and benefit of the people, and to answer questions from reporters. Zhu Hongming, deputy director of the Grassroots Department of the National Health and Wellness Commission and a first-class inspector, said, "Since the deepening of medical reform in 2009, we have continued to promote the equalization of basic public health services, and grassroots medical and health institutions have undertaken a large number of basic public health services, especially the health management of patients with chronic diseases, and established relatively stable ties with urban and rural residents."

Zhu Hongming introduced that in promoting the management of chronic diseases, the following measures have been taken: First, in the grassroots convenience measures, the long-term prescription services for chronic diseases such as hypertension and diabetes will be fully implemented in community health service centers and township health centers, and the coverage of chronic diseases will be gradually expanded; Provide exercise and diet prescriptions or suggestions for patients with chronic diseases such as diabetes, hyperlipidemia and hypertension.

The second is to organize the compilation of the National Guidelines for the Prevention and Control of Hypertension and the National Guidelines for the Prevention and Control of Diabetes, so as to guide local primary medical and health institutions to provide health management services for patients with chronic diseases.

The third is to actively promote the training of "medical prevention and management" integrated talents and establish a medical prevention and control integration mechanism. Relying on the contract service of family doctors, we will promote the combination of prevention and medical care, do a good job in health follow-up of key populations, and carry out multi-disease co-management services for patients with chronic diseases such as hypertension and type 2 diabetes.

Fourth, relying on the construction of county medical community, promote the establishment of division of labor and cooperation and two-way referral mechanism between primary medical and health institutions and superior medical institutions, and extend the services of superior hospitals to the grassroots. For patients with chronic diseases with stable conditions, health management services are provided by grass-roots institutions in accordance with norms and guidelines. There are some good explorations and practices in this regard in various places, for example, Tianjin promotes the construction of grass-roots chronic disease management centers, and provides residents with online and offline integrated all-round and full-cycle health services through intelligent auxiliary diagnosis, convenient chronic disease assessment, customized treatment programs and personalized health management. Relying on the construction of county medical associations and urban medical associations, Zhejiang Province has realized that the general diagnosis, treatment and daily management of "two chronic diseases" are mainly based on grass-roots medical and health institutions, realizing linkage from top to bottom and smoothing referral channels.
