The Returning Doctor Wanted to Live Quietly - Chapter 385

Episode 385. Hospital Director Election (4)

Secretary for Social Policy.

The so-called social chief.

Just as the Senior Secretary to the President for Civil Affairs wielded great power over the prosecution, the Senior Secretary to the President for Social Affairs also had great power.

Especially if it is the father of Kim Moo-sung, who is also being mentioned as the next Minister of Health and Welfare after resolving the issue of increasing the number of medical schools.

Seo Kyung-won asked after a long pause.

“Is this real?”

“yes.”

“How can it be real?”

“yes?”

“We tried to contact him somehow. We tried shaking Mr. Kim Moo-sung. We asked him. We pressured him. We tried everything.”

“… … .”

“But it’s so easy. Huh, really?”

Seo Kyung-won clicked his tongue as if he was astonished.

That makes sense.

A side effect that has been discussed several times in academic conferences.

I tried to convey it somehow.

They say that they only need to secure 200 beds by signing an agreement with another hospital under the name of cooperative beds.

If you can’t secure it, you’ll just go out of business.

All patients who could not obtain imaging data at primary hospitals were rushed to general hospitals.

I was missing the timing because of the long wait.

There were also many people who did not go to higher-level hospitals because they thought it was inconvenient.

But who would have thought that an opportunity to preach about side effects would come so easily?

I couldn’t believe it at all.

At that sight.

“Should I call you right now?”

“what?”

“I already contacted you in advance.”

“Did you tell me in advance?”

“Yes, I’ll pull out the bull’s horn in one go. I’ll call you right away.”

“… … !”

Jinhyuk took action.

Seo Kyung-won was startled.

When filing a complaint to a public official, you must be thoroughly prepared before filing it.

It wasn’t supposed to be done so hastily.

“No. No. No!”

“yes?”

“Don’t do it! Not now!”

“No. Well, say hello. You’re connected.”

“… … !”

“Take it right now.”

Even the voice of the social affairs chief could be heard over the phone.

Seo Kyung-won suddenly stood up.

This is possible because the problem of increasing the number of medical school students, which was notoriously difficult, was solved.

When he left to make a phone call, Jinhyuk smiled.

* * *

A call that lasted less than five minutes.

Seo Kyung-won’s expression was bright as she returned from talking on the phone from afar.

He handed me the phone again and asked.

“I have a question.”

“Yes, sir.”

“Who told you? Was it the hospital director?”

“No, that’s not possible.”

“No? Then, did Mr. Kim Moo-sung tell you?”

“I was already acquainted with the Vice Minister, no, the Senior Secretary to the President for Social Affairs, regarding the issue of increasing the number of medical school students.”

“Hmm.”

Seo Kyung-won let out a shallow sigh.

Jinhyuk continued speaking.

“Let’s also clarify the issue of reinforcements… … . The hospital director was manipulating things from behind the scenes. All of these rumors are just baseless rumors.”

“Yeah. He wouldn’t do that. He’s an idiot.”

“yes?”

“What a stupid person.”

“… … !”

Open gossip.

This time, Jinhyuk’s eyes grew wide.

‘Surely the hospital director… … .’

“Did you happen to see the hospital director?”

“I went to look for it.”

“You declined.”

“They said that they couldn’t move at the hospital level. They even said they didn’t want to call in Dr. Kim Moo-sung and talk to him.”

“You must have felt a great sense of betrayal.”

Seo Kyung-won grabbed his fishing rod without answering.

The fish keeps disappearing under the water and coming up again, but I have no intention of lifting it.

Looks like you have a lot on your mind.

He asked after a while.

“What the hell are you?”

“… … .”

“Still a junior staff member. Nothing more, nothing less. But what is this… … .”

“… … .”

“It feels like I’m talking to a veteran professor who’s been working for over 20 years. He knows things you shouldn’t know. He knows things you shouldn’t know. At that age, what the heck… .”

Words spoken in a flowing manner.

Jinhyuk responded with silence.

This kind of thing happened frequently in the run-up to the election for the president of Seosin University.

There is no reason to say anything.

It went without saying.

Just just.

“Huh? I got caught too?”

I just scream when I see the float suddenly moving without any bait set.

Wolcheok.

It was a moonfish.

* * *

A warehouse-like space that is usually used as a supplies room.

So, it’s a space where you can sleep soundly, known only to those who know you.

Woo Yong-man asked in a place that was now decorated like an election headquarters.

“You also went to the pathology and anesthesiology departments?”

“yes.”

“And what else?”

“They say the head of the clinical pharmacology department has also passed away a long time ago.”

Woo Yong-man just wrote without answering.

Pathology.

Anesthesiology.

Department of Clinical Pharmacology.

I thought that now all I had to do was break the rehabilitation medicine and plastic surgery departments.

There were more traitors.

If Seo Kyung-won hadn’t told me, I would have been helpless. I thought there was no chance of her betraying me.

“The pathology department is… … .”

“There… … .”

“Then, like this… … .”

“No, no.”

The discussion went on for quite some time.

How to break your opponent.

What should I suggest?

It might not be an empty promise.

There was a sharp exchange of attacks.

Woo Yong-man and Jin-hyeok moved without rest.

“Why do you think the anesthesia chief is doing that?”

“Well, because there was no additional manpower.”

“We hired three more people in the second half of last year alone. We filled them up.”

“It’s not enough.”

“lack?”

“Because the number of surgical personnel has increased significantly, the number of operating rooms opened has increased significantly.”

“then…….”

After writing down the plan again and discussing it for a while.

I met the head of the anesthesia department.

This time, Woo Yong-man himself.

* * *

A situation where the anesthesia department chief was coaxed and persuaded to break it.

In addition, the head of the clinical pharmacology department was also broken.

That’s not all.

I also heard the pathology department head’s complaints.

Woo Yong-man saw the show again.

So we’re doing internal inspections like that.

A breathless electoral college of internal medicine doctors.

So, it’s time to figure out the movements of the internal medicine department heads, starting with the days when they were absent.

I got a call that it was a failure.

From Jang Hyuk-jun.

It was an unexpected result.

* * *

[Oh, isn’t this easy? If I keep going like this, I won’t be able to eat or sleep, let alone become a professor. No one knows that I’m in Germany yet, right?]

“Why? What’s the problem? Is there another racist?”

[Well, it has decreased a lot. But the budget is tight.]

“You don’t have any budget available?”

[No. You know what kind of people Germans are. They have absolutely no flexibility. Even if you tell them to use the unused budget, they won’t budge.]

It would have been enough to just divert the unused budget, but that also wasn’t acceptable.

A society that is frustratingly slow and only follows principles.

It was a social atmosphere that Jinhyuk also knew.

“What was the reaction? Was the reaction good?”

[Yes. Manager Seo Woon-tae even brought an unmanned cargo container as air cargo.]

“hmm.”

[The references were also appealing enough. Since I had accumulated enough references mainly from large hospitals in the Americas, everyone was satisfied.]

The conversation went on for quite some time.

Jinhyuk, who had been thinking hard, came to a conclusion.

“You know Saudi Arabia, right? Let’s do what Saudi Arabia does best.”

* * *

Dozens of trillions in one visit.

It was a society where reports based on memoranda of understanding, or MOUs, which had no legal binding whatsoever were abundant.

Of course, the media sometimes praised the regime, saying that it made tens of trillions of won in profits.

But sometimes he showed a double standard, criticizing it as nothing more than a piece of paper with no legal binding force.

To the public who is not interested in current affairs or politics, it looks like a bright apricot.

Honey, Jinhyuk called right away.

“Reporter, it’s been a while.”

Another long phone call.

The day after I spoke with Kang Ki-jae of Gangwon Ilbo, a former major reporter.

Newspaper reports poured in immediately.

It was from Gangwon Ilbo.

[Asin IT exports next-generation EMR to Germany!]

[IT powerhouse’s great feat! Plattenbau Hospital announces its intention to introduce it immediately!]

[The next-generation EMR created by Asin Hospital and Asin IT!]

[Charité Hospital with 300 Years of History! Next-Generation EMR Pilot Introduced!]

[Only 20 hospitals have expressed their intention to introduce the pilot! What is the expected order amount?]

An article titled “Exclusive.”

The subsequent reports were also mostly based on dictation, so the trend was similar.

All he did was reveal that he was going to be a pilot.

I heard that they are reviewing it positively, although it is difficult to introduce it right away due to lack of budget.

The media acts as if the rice is already cooked.

The atmosphere of the hospital you know has also changed right away.

* * *

[Wow! Did you hear that?]

[Why? What?]

[Charité Hospital is a very famous hospital in Germany.]

[Isn’t this the hospital that recently decided to exchange doctors?]

[So. They say they’re introducing the next-generation EMR and unmanned checkout machines. This is really awesome. LOL]

[Why is that so great?]

[No, we might also fall for the bean curds. Do you think the Foundation will stay still?]

Those who discuss the ripple effect.

After building an EMR for a large hospital in the Americas.

Asin IT donated money to the foundation under the name of a contribution.

Everyone was furious because they knew that the foundation had reinvested its money in the hospital.

How to spend money.

Where will the money go?

It’s a time of letting your imagination run wild.

of course.

[Hey, hey. This is just a lie. He’s a pilot. He’s a pilot. It’s the same as meeting a Saudi or UAE prince and signing an MOU!]

There were also people with normal thinking.

Knowing that it will only end if it actually leads to an order.

But the trend has already shifted.

Everyone spoke with high hopes.

[I wish we could hire more doctors so that things would be more comfortable.]

[We wish they had bought us some equipment… … .]

[I need some welfare… … .]

[Please reduce the working hours!]

The chatter continues for a long time.

Doctors, nurses, and even nursing assistants.

Even though we were all busy, we had conversations from time to time.

Then I heard that Woo Yong-man had joined the rehabilitation medicine department.

[Awesome! Awesome!]

[Why? Is the patient causing trouble again? Is the truth coming out?]

[No! That’s not it!]

[That’s not it!]

[Manager Woo has arrived!!]

[What!? Again? Another cut?]

[No! I don’t think that’s right! I’m having an interview with our manager right now.]

[What? Hahahaha because of the election? Hey. How can that work? It’s a rehabilitation department. It’s a place where they grind their teeth.]

[Hey! Our manager’s nickname is Reed! Reed! He’s an easy guy!]

As expected.

Before the ongoing messenger could even finish, the head of the rehabilitation medicine department and Woo Yong-man came out.

The head of the rehabilitation medicine department, who had changed his mind, smiled brightly.

Once again the messenger started to burn.

* * *

A conference room where the rehabilitation medicine staff gather.

Everyone had a curious look on their face.

What on earth was being said?

What kind of show did you see?

Why did you just see Woo Yong off with a smile?

They exchanged glances and looked at each other curiously for a while.

While they were waiting.

The manager entered the conference room late.

soon.

“I heard they’re planning to take over a senior hospital in LA.”

He revealed the matter that Woo Yong-man had wanted to keep secret.

The conference room was immediately abuzz.

Nursing home.

Rehabilitation medicine is a field with a lot of demand.

Besides, LA is the area with the largest Korean community.

Someone asked back in disbelief.

“A takeover? Do you have money?”

“They said it would be coming soon. They said the German hospitals responded well.”

“It’s still in the pilot stage. No, to be exact, we haven’t even started the pilot.”

“Yeah. But he said it was certain. He also said it didn’t make sense for it to fall apart when the media reported it like that.”

The implication is that he will cast his vote for Oh Ji-ho.

Everyone was silent for a while, then they refuted again.

The actions of Lee Jin-hyeok that destroyed the Silbi factory.

And because I hated his supporter, Oh Ji-ho.

“But how can I believe that… … .”

“hmm.”

“It’s different when you go into the bathroom and when you come out. It could end up being an empty promise.”

“It’s a blank check… … .”

“Yes, this doesn’t seem right.”

“… … So I guess I should spread the rumor.”

“yes?”

“Spread the word.”

“ah…….”

A brief moment of silence.

Soon the resident entered the conference room holding a bunch of papers.

Hospital takeover review materials provided by Woo Yong-man.

As soon as it was distributed, those who looked at it each expressed their opinions.

“What is IRR (Internal Rate of Return)?”

“What is BEP (break-even point)… … .”

“I don’t know the term, but this is a deficit hospital. It’s not a for-profit corporation, it’s a non-profit corporation.”

“I know it’s easy to acquire a non-profit organization, but it’s also risky. Aren’t we asking you to make it profitable?”

It was a place that would become a top-notch hospital and would be called the Hollywood Hospital in the future.

Those who didn’t know this just tilted their heads for a long time.

hereto.

“Okay, let’s put it up for auction. I’ll give a copy to the vice president and come back.”

The head of the rehabilitation medicine department began to move like a reed, just like his nickname.
