Chapter 290: The Hospital Play of the Lord Seongju (1)

There was a time when social problems caused by the phenomenon of avoiding medical schools had been festering for a long time.

This is a long-term phenomenon in which departments that are directly related to human life, such as trauma surgery, thoracic surgery, and neurosurgery, are being ostracized, while departments that are related to quality of life rather than life, such as dermatology, plastic surgery, ophthalmology, and orthopedics, are gaining popularity.

Many people who chose the wrong path because they wanted to become a doctor because saving people seemed cool, or because they were tricked by professors, ended up regretting it greatly.

Even if I opened a local practice after being pushed out of the hospital due to a shortage of TOs, business was not good. No one wanted to get even the simplest surgery at a neighborhood hospital.

In large hospitals, they cut the budget for essential life sciences that don’t make money, there are no positions, and even if they open, patients don’t come. In the meantime, dermatology and ophthalmic plastic surgery are stable and you don’t have to see people die, so it’s good for mental health.

“I came here because saving people seemed cool, but I ended up dying!”

“Whether it’s the government, the association, or the people, no one listens to us!”

“Is this how a human being should live, living his whole life in a state of commotion?”

Those who ended up choosing the wrong path, however, eventually found light.

“The special law on swimming hospitals has been passed.”

“Then what happens?”

“All the restrictions from the Ministry of Health and Welfare that had been shackling swimming hospitals have disappeared. Swimming hospitals can now do whatever they want without worrying about medical schools or anything else.”

Previously, swimming hospitals had been aggressively recruiting doctors.

However, it could not be said to be complete freedom. There were clearly some restrictions, such as numbers.

However, with the passage of the special law, swimming hospitals are now free to operate their own medical schools and are no longer subject to the shackles of the Ministry of Health and Welfare in operating hospitals and recruiting medical staff.

In the first year after the monopoly regulations were lifted, Cheongdam Swimming Hospital displayed tremendous power.

All the major hospitals across the country were shocked to see the application rates for interns, residents, and specialists.

“Why are there so many intern applications this year? Why are the Reggie and Specialist positions so shaky again? What’s going on?”

“All the chains that had been hanging over the swimming hospital were gone.”

“What does that mean?”

“It’s all because of the special law on swimming hospitals that was passed last time.”

The number of intern applications was crushed miserably.

The intern side is okay.

There was a serious imbalance between residents and specialists.

The so-called avoided departments, that is, departments that deal with life, had zero applicants.

It wasn’t even close to zero, it was just zero.

“Reg, how can you say there aren’t any applicants for the specialist surgical position?”

“Director, there is a bigger problem than that right now……”

“What the hell are you talking about? Can’t you see this right now? This year, the number of surgical resident and specialist recruitment is 0, 0! What bigger problem is there than this?”

“All the surgeons at our hospital have submitted their resignations.”

“……what?”

The hospital director felt breathless and dizzy for a moment.

Because of the swimming hospital, there has been a steady outflow of essential department personnel.

At one point, it got to the point where it was impossible to maintain general hospital conditions.

Because it exceeds 300 beds, it must maintain at least 9 medical departments, including internal medicine and surgery, to meet the general hospital qualification requirements, but the ‘entire surgery department’ was on the verge of being blown away.

They kept the surgeons by raising their salaries significantly, even though they were crying and eating mustard. As a result, the hospital’s deficit worsened, but maintaining the qualifications of a general hospital was more important.

Even the children and adolescents who saw it couldn’t stay still.

The pediatrics and adolescent medicine department also attempted to transfer en masse to Suyeong Hospital, but they hurriedly blocked it by significantly increasing salaries before the incident broke out.

And then it happened again.

“Why on earth are you doing that? Even though our hospital may not be able to match the top salaries of swimming hospitals, we are providing salaries that are comparable to those of the upper-middle-ranking hospitals.”

“It’s because of work-life balance, Doctor.”

“Work-life balance?”

“You know, the swimming pool hospital is open three days a week.”

“…….”

“If you look at the working hours, it’s hard to say that we’re actually providing mid- to upper-middle-level salaries.”

“So, Director Kim, are you just going to watch this situation unfold? Is there no solution?”

“There is no solution unless our hospital operates like a swimming hospital.”

“If you run it like that? Are we digging the dirt to do business? If you run it like that, you’ll be out of business in less than a year. Close the business!”

The hospital director was furious, but he could not resolve the situation in which the entire surgical staff submitted their resignations in anger.

And the surgical application rate this year is 0.

There is no future for hospitals if things continue like this.

Eventually, surgery will disappear and the general hospital requirement will be lost.

“Ah… my blood pressure, ah…!”

My head started spinning and my vision went dark.

***

This phenomenon was common in all general hospitals across the country.

Doctors from departments that are avoided, such as surgery, packed their bags and knocked on the door of Suyeong Hospital.

The swimming hospital, which had been granted an exclusive license by the state, accepted them all without hesitation.

The Korean medical community, which was already suffering from continuous plunder, was completely uprooted.

Go Chang-sik, a former executive director of Segyeong Group, reported politely.

“Vice President, we have secured 90% of the surgeons working at general hospitals in our country.”

“What about the rest of the required courses?”

“It also exceeded 70%.”

“It’s a bit disappointing. I think our hospital’s conditions are good, so why didn’t we achieve 100%?”

It’s not just okay; it’s outrageous.

“I think they are hesitating because they are worried that if they change jobs right away, the patients remaining in the hospital will be at risk.”

“hmm…….”

“Applying to a difficult and undesirable department and staying there for a long time is usually not something that can be done with a sense of mission.”

“Well, even though we live in an era of capitalism, not all doctors are only interested in money. Rather, it’s rare to find doctors with such a strong sense of mission. I really want to secure them.”

“It’s not like there’s no way.”

“Is there any way?”

“Wouldn’t it be okay to transfer all the critically ill patients remaining in the hospital to our hospital and bring the remaining lives and doctors with them?”

Wang Se-gyeong nodded slightly at Go Chang-sik’s words.

“I like the idea, Mr. Ko. It’s interesting. But it’s not realistic. You know?”

“yes.”

Currently, both the Cheongdam and Guro branches of Suyeong Hospital are full of beds.

It’s not like there are no empty beds at all. But… … .

“Aren’t there any spare beds on Hospital Ships 1, 2, and 3?”

“That’s true, but….”

“If what the Chairman, or rather the Vice Chairman, says is true, the doctors who have not knocked on our swimming hospital’s door and have stayed at the Legacy General Hospital until now are valuable personnel with a strong sense of mission. We must attract them even if it means spending a lot of money.”

“hmm…….”

“I think that if they have such valuable manpower, they will be persuaded just out of curiosity about how the Ford aircraft carrier hospital ship operates. What do you think?”

Wang Se-kyung was attracted to the idea.

“To do that, we need to make individual contact with the remaining critically ill patients, which is clearly illegal.”

“There is a way. I can do it.”

“Freedom?”

“I regularly receive personal information voluntarily from all users for their personal comfort. It is illegal for me to provide that information to the Foundation, but it is not illegal for me to provide ‘information on a better treatment environment’ to each patient individually.”

Executive Director Ko Chang-sik responded with a bang.

“It’s not illegal, but it’s good for the patients. Of course, it’s not good for the hospitals, but what can you do? In a capitalist society, if you’re not competitive, you should be eliminated.”

And Wang Se-gyeong is a founding monarch who single-handedly created a conglomerate in the harsh world of capitalism.

Now, he has forgotten his days in the secular world and is faithful to his role as the hospital director and the head priest of Suyeong Hospital, but because of that, he has never compromised when it comes to protecting the lives of patients.

It made no sense to him to choose between the financial hemorrhage of other large hospital foundations and improving the treatment environment for patients.

“But in the case of seriously ill patients, transport itself would be almost impossible.”

“You can use the Queen Stallion. It’s a flying operating room and intensive care unit. The only issue is the range.”

The three hospital ships are currently too far away for the Queen Stallion to fly to.

The two Ford aircraft carriers are stationed in the waters off California, USA, and the Mediterranean Sea, Europe.

The Queen Luna, a converted ultra-luxury cruise ship, is located in the Arabian Sea of ​​the Indian Ocean.

“There is no problem if aerial refueling is used, but I don’t think it is advisable to travel excessively long distances, even if it is a flying intensive care unit.”

Wang Se-gyeong made a decision after hearing Go Chang-sik’s words.

“I guess we should bring either the Queen Luna or the Ford aircraft carrier to Korea. Which would be better?”

“Queen Luna, a converted luxury cruise ship, is the pinnacle of luxury and is a great thing to show off. However, for the doctors who have not yet visited our hospital……”

“I’m more interested in how the Ford aircraft carrier was converted into a hospital ship.”

“Yes. Don’t nerds have that kind of nature? There are many doctors who wonder how an aircraft carrier can be turned into a hospital ship.”

“Queen Luna actually has lower expectations than the Ford aircraft carrier. It’s originally a super-luxury cruise ship, so people take it for granted that it would be at the level of a first-class hospital ship if converted into a hospital ship.”

“Okay. Then move the Ford carrier to California. Freedom, you provide ‘quality information’ to the patients in the meantime.”

“All right.”

“Director Koh. Do you know what you have to do?”

“Yes. I will go around meeting with potential scouts and do some persuading work.”

Wang Se-gyeong leisurely leaned forward on the chair, resting her arms on her head.

The soft feel of the chair gently leaning back against your back makes you feel relaxed.

“I’m looking forward to it……”

The swimming hospital swallowed up doctors in essential life sciences such as surgery like a black hole.

Large hospitals are on the verge of losing their general hospital status, and local practitioners are closing their private hospitals and moving to Suyeong Hospital because business is not going well.

Let’s solve the debt problem by providing loans at a low interest rate of 0.1% to private practitioners who are struggling with debt and failing in business, and the number of private practitioners who quickly close down their businesses and come back has also increased.

Originally, such an aggressive, low-level, and raking operation would have been impossible.

The Ministry of Health and Welfare had the authority to enforce that the national medical network be maintained as evenly and equally as possible.

But now the swimming hospital is untouchable.

Even if the other four major hospitals are completely destroyed and swallowed up, the Ministry of Health and Welfare will just have to watch with its eyes wide open.

“There are 4 major hospitals, 5 major hospitals. Is there a need to divide them up like that? Just like you can go anywhere and still get to Seoul, if you can save more patients, then that’s fine.”

The awakened saint, who often met with the grim reaper, was not entangled in worldly matters.

My greatest wish is to expand my territory further and wider so that as many patients as possible can live a comfortable life.

“I think it would be more efficient to simply incorporate the National Health Insurance Corporation into our foundation’s finance department.”

Even today, Seongjushin dreams of a perfect and absolute monopoly.
