01 The purchase of therapeutic instrument through Wechat business is invalid and difficult to refund.

[Brief introduction of the case]

Uncle Lu, a consumer, suffers from heart disease. On April 10th, 2023, he bought a semiconductor laser therapeutic instrument produced by Jiutouniao Medical Device Development Co., Ltd. through Wechat business at a cost of 2,280 yuan, hoping to play an auxiliary role in treating the disease through the instrument. The consumer has used it for nearly a month and thinks it has no effect. On May 7th, the consumer asked for a refund, and Wechat business asked him to buy another product to use with it, and the effect was more obvious. The consumer thinks that the operator doesn’t want to return the goods, so it is convenient to complain to Baotou Consumers Association on May 8, 2023, hoping to get help.

【 Processing Process and Results 】

After accepting the complaint, the staff of Baotou Consumers Association checked the chat record between consumers and Wechat business. Wechat business promised that "if the effect is not satisfactory or not within 30 days, he can apply for a refund". The staff contacted Wechat business by phone to ask him to fulfill his promise and was told to contact the manufacturer directly to get a refund. After contact, the consumer will mail the product back to the manufacturer at the request of the other party, and then refund the fee after inspection. In the end, the consumer received a refund of 2280 yuan on May 18th.

[Case Analysis]

Article 16 of the Law of People’s Republic of China (PRC) on the Protection of Consumer Rights and Interests stipulates: "If there is an agreement between the operator and the consumer, they shall perform their obligations according to the agreement, but the agreement between the two parties shall not violate the provisions of laws and regulations." In this case, when the consumer requests a refund according to the operator’s prior commitment, the operator should refund the fee for the consumer according to the commitment. In this case, the consumer shops through Wechat business, and the other party is not a micro-store. This is a private transaction between the two parties, and it is difficult to effectively protect their rights and interests. It is suggested that consumers shop through formal channels to avoid damage to their rights and interests.

【 Processing Process and Results 】

On March 27th, 2023, the Consumers Association of Ulanhot organized a mediation meeting between the two parties at the Social Governance Center of Ulanhot.

[Brief introduction of the case]

Ms. Yang, a consumer, complained to the Consumers Association of Wulanhaote, claiming that two contracts were signed at the Oprah Winfrey Home Counter on the second floor of Red Star Macalline on February 19, 2023, which stipulated that the basic disassembly and assembly of her residence was 27,000 yuan and the custom-made wardrobe and cupboard was 67,000 yuan, totaling 94,000 yuan. The construction period was originally scheduled to be two months, but during the construction, the disassembly part was not completed from February 22 to early June. After the customized part was re-scaled, the merchant asked the consumer to pay another 22,000 yuan for reasons such as changing the cabinet material and changing the glass door. The consumer thought that the merchant had any price increase behavior, and verified the price increase part with the person in charge, and the merchant could not provide a clear basis for the price increase part. At the same time, the consumer entrusted others to recheck the measured drawing area, and found that there was an error of 3 square meters. The consumer demanded to cancel the contract and refund the money on the grounds that the merchant was fraudulent. No agreement was reached through mediation organized by the mall management. Consumers complained to the Consumers Association of Wulanhaote City, and provided evidence such as recordings, drawings and project progress records.

Consumers Association believes that the behavior of merchants has constituted a breach of contract and infringed on the legitimate rights and interests of consumers. After mediation again, the operator refused to refund and withdrew from the mediation site halfway. Consumers Association made a decision to terminate mediation, supported consumers to bring a lawsuit to the court, and handed over the illegal acts of the operator suspected of infringing consumers’ legitimate rights and interests to the market supervision office of the jurisdiction for investigation and punishment according to law, and exposed them through Tik Tok WeChat official account, Wulanhaote Consumers Association.

[Brief introduction of the case]

On January 26th, 2023, consumers watched a 3D movie at Moqi jaxa Cinema of Hulunbeier Tianzhixing Film and Television Media Co., Ltd., and the cinema informed consumers that they must buy or bring their own 3D glasses at their own expense to watch the movie, and the cinema did not provide 3D glasses for free.

Format clauses, notices, statements, store notices, etc. contain the contents listed in the preceding paragraph, and their contents are invalid. " 3D glasses are an indispensable basic condition for watching 3D movies, and the provision of 3D glasses is an integral part of the viewing service. Consumers buy movie viewing services according to the ticket price of 3D movies, and theater operators should provide consumers with all services that meet the requirements of watching movies, including providing consumers with movie viewing facilities such as 3D glasses. It is a typical "unfair format clause" for the cinema to split its own service obligations and pass them on to consumers, which increases the burden on consumers and violates the principle of fairness and good faith. At the same time, because the cinema forces consumers to buy 3D glasses or in disguised form, it violates the provisions of the Measures for Punishment of Infringement on Consumers’ Rights and Interests, law enforcement officers ordered the cinema to make corrections and give a warning.

05 the problem of refunding the deposit due to the inability to borrow money for the purchase of commercial housing

[Brief introduction of the case]

On March 15, 2023, Ms. Consumer Palace complained to Bayannaoer Consumers Association that on March 10, 2023, she signed the House Purchase and Sale Deposit Agreement with Bayannaoer Hyde Real Estate Agency Co., Ltd., booked a commercial house, and paid a deposit of 20,000 yuan and a supervision fee of 5,000 yuan on site. When signing the contract, the consumer said that he can only pay the down payment, and the remaining house payment needs to be applied for a bank loan. I wonder if his conditions meet the conditions of bank mortgage loan. The real estate agency said that the conditions of consumers fully meet the loan requirements, and even if they do not meet the requirements, the company will help solve them. Subsequently, the consumer submitted proof of income and running water to the bank, but failed to pass the bank mortgage loan review. When concluding a house sales contract, the real estate brokerage company requires consumers to buy a house in full. If a house purchase contract is not concluded, the deposit and supervision fund will not be refunded. Consumers think that the real estate company’s practice is unreasonable and demand mediation from the Consumers Association.

【 Processing Process and Results 】

At the same time, because the consumer has paid the deposit, but can’t conclude a house purchase contract, according to the above provisions, the real estate brokerage company in this case should refund the deposit and supervision money paid by the consumer.

Farmers think that there is a quality problem with the drip irrigation belt, and they have repeatedly asked dealers and manufacturers to solve the problem, but the merchants have been looking for reasons to delay, so they came to the Consumers Association to complain.

【 Processing Process and Results 】

After receiving the complaint, Bayannaoer Consumers Association immediately sent its staff to the farmland involved in the complaint for on-the-spot inspection, and found that the used drip irrigation tape was scattered in the fields, which could not restore the specific scene at that time. After the staff visited the farmers for investigation, it was basically confirmed that the situation reflected by the complainant did exist, but the existing evidence could not prove that there was a problem with the quality of drip irrigation tape. Later, it was found that there were surplus drip irrigation tapes in the farmer’s warehouse, which were unused and packaged completely. In order to recover the losses of farmers as much as possible, Bayannaoer Consumers Association applied to the Consumers Association of the autonomous region for mediation in time, but the dealers and manufacturers insisted that there was no quality problem with the drip irrigation tape, and the complaint handling was deadlocked. In order to obtain sufficient evidence, the staff of Bayannaoer Consumers Association entrusted the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region Product Quality Inspection Institute for inspection in August 2022, and the drip tape was found to be unqualified. Accordingly, Bayannaoer Consumers Association supports consumer litigation and resolves disputes through litigation. On June 29, 2023, it was tried by the People’s Court of Tuzuoqi, and the loss was recovered for consumers by 251,725 yuan.

The consumer thinks that the laundry should check with her the identity of the clothes picker without the clothes pick-up certificate.

  China agricultural technology drives bumper harvest.

  To achieve the goal of global hunger eradication, Africa is an important puzzle. The food supply here is seriously threatened by climate change and land desertification, and the agricultural technology in China has provided important help for increasing local food production and improving food security.

  In Mozambique, Wanbao Mosang Agricultural Park, which china-africa development fund participated in, is a large-scale rice planting project, which has significantly improved the local rice planting and rice processing technology; In Kenya, the field micro-rainwater harvesting technology from China was applied in the local demonstration area to grow corn, and the yield increased by 99% to 240%. In Burundi, the expert group of China selected and introduced eight kinds of rice suitable for the local area, which solved the historical problem that the local mountainous area often lost production or even failed to harvest due to rice blast.

  China has built a number of agricultural technology demonstration centers in Africa, and projects such as "Demonstration Project of Increasing Corn Yield by Thousands of Households and Ten Thousand Mu" have blossomed locally.

  In the eyes of South African delegate Malelai, China’s agricultural technology has brought tangible benefits in agricultural innovation, poverty alleviation and food security. He said that he expected more cooperation between Africa and China in food security and mitigation of the impact of climate change.

  According to the data of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs of China, by 2021, China has sent more than 2,000 agricultural experts and technicians to more than 70 countries and regions, and promoted and demonstrated more than 1,500 agricultural technologies to many countries, driving the project to increase production by 40% to 70% on average.

  Medical and health experience in China promotes health.

  This year marks the 60th anniversary of the dispatch of China’s foreign aid medical team. Over the past 60 years, China has sent 30,000 medical personnel to 76 countries and regions around the world, treating 290 million patients.

  China, together with its partners in developing countries, shared the experience gained in the field of public health in China, shared public health products such as vaccines, and made joint efforts to reduce the disease burden in developing countries and promote global health governance.

  The global malaria burden is mainly concentrated in southern countries. There were still 30 million malaria cases in China from the early days of the founding of the People’s Republic of China. By 2017, the number of local malaria cases was reported to be zero, and by 2021, it was certified by the World Health Organization as the national malaria elimination certification … … China’s achievements in malaria control provide a reference for overcoming malaria problems and promoting global health.

  In Tanzania, using China’s barefoot doctor model for reference, villagers were recruited and trained to become the core medical staff or volunteers of local medical teams. Learn the work standard of "1-3-7" malaria case report and detection in China, that is, complete the case report within 1 day, complete the case review and epidemiological investigation within 3 days, and carry out the investigation and disposal of epidemic spots within 7 days; Pipequine dihydroartemisinin phosphate tablets produced in China have also been popularized in pilot areas.

  Ren Minghui, a professor at Peking University School of Public Health and former assistant director-general of the World Health Organization, said in an interview with Xinhua News Agency during the forum that South-South cooperation in China is open, inclusive and oriented to the needs of South-South countries. Whether China’s anti-malaria technical scheme has been promoted by WHO for many times, or China’s aid to build medical infrastructure and China’s pharmaceutical enterprises’ overseas localized production or technology transfer, China has provided a reference, further localized and concrete scheme for southern countries to strengthen health system construction.

  China’s program helps to meet global challenges.

  At present, international geopolitical conflicts have intensified, North-South cooperation has slowed down, and the development gap has widened, thus facing many challenges in achieving the goal of sustainable development in 2030. According to United Nations statistics, there are still more than 800 million people starving and 350 million people in need of humanitarian assistance in the world, and the momentum of implementing the sustainable development goals has obviously slowed down.

  China, with its own development path, has provided the world with a feasible and reproducible reference, and also contributed China’s plan and China’s wisdom to jointly deal with global challenges.

  Zhang Jianping, deputy director of the Academic Committee of the Institute of International Trade and Economic Cooperation of the Ministry of Commerce, said that China has set a development model for the southern countries. China’s participation in South-South cooperation does not attach political conditions and requirements like western countries, which provides opportunities for southern countries to improve their own capacity building, development level and development efficiency.

  Eliminating poverty is a common challenge facing mankind. As the country with the largest poverty reduction population in the world, China has contributed more than 70% to global poverty reduction, creating a miracle in the history of poverty reduction in the world. Poverty reduction in China has become a research sample of more and more countries and international organizations.

  Facing the challenge of global climate change, in 2015, China set up the China South-South Cooperation Fund on Climate Change with 20 billion yuan; Since 2016, China has launched 10 low-carbon demonstration zones, 100 climate change mitigation and adaptation projects, and 1,000 cooperation projects to cope with climate change training places in developing countries, and implemented more than 200 foreign aid projects to cope with climate change.

  Zhu Min, vice chairman of China International Economic Exchange Center, told Xinhua that China has accumulated experience and technology in carbon neutral macro management, technological innovation and new industrial layout. At present, China’s photovoltaic manufacturing industry accounts for 90% of the global production capacity and is an important source country of global wind power equipment and electric vehicles. "China has great potential to promote the green transformation of developing countries in terms of carbon neutrality."

  Sri Lankan Foreign Minister Sabri said that Sri Lanka’s economy has achieved remarkable growth since China invested in the local area and started infrastructure construction. South-South cooperation is an important mechanism to jointly promote the solution of global challenges, in which China plays an important role.

  The "China sample" of South-South cooperation provides enlightenment and reference for developing countries from the perspective of global development. In the long run, more global governance has explored new models and new paths different from those in the West. (Reporter Zhang Miao, Xu Supei, Bai Jiali, Henry Hui Wang, Zhang Yuqi)

SHOPLINE social e-commerce solution helps businesses go to Indonesia.

According to Indonesia’s latest Trade Minister Order No.31 of 2023,Social media will no longer be used as a platform for commodity sales, but only as a channel for the marketing or promotion of goods and services.When social media can not be used as a sales platform to complete closed-loop transactions, how to find out?A new set of closed-loop logic of diversion+transformation?

First, the huge social e-commerce dividend of Indonesian e-commerce

There are 212.9 million Internet users in Indonesia, with an Internet penetration rate of 77.0%.

Indonesia has 167 million social media users, equivalent to 60.4% of the total population.

Indonesian netizens spend more than 3 hours on social media through various devices every day on average.

Data as of January 2023, source Digital2023:Indonesia

Indonesia’s demographic Internet dividend seems to be the same as that in China ten years ago, and the huge user base provides space for the development of social media. After the launch of the social media+store model, social e-commerce quickly penetrated.

Indonesian local merchant Fefenia sells woven handbags through social e-commerce, and 90% of its business centers are placed on a single short video social channel. However, due to the newly issued rules, the closed loop of his social media connection transaction has broken, and he needs to find a new "shelf" for his business in a short time.

A single channel may temporarily boost the vitality, but multiple sales channels and multiple flow channels can lengthen the vitality of the whole business operation.

Second, SHOPLINE SC builds a traffic runway for social e-commerce

Where is the "traffic", where is the business? This is the initial intention of Indonesian e-commerce to rely heavily on social media; A strategy that can lead the "flow" to the closed-loop trading is a good strategy.

In view of this, SHOPLINE Social Commerce allows users to undertake e-commerce links accurately, reliably and automatically by building a traffic runway. Merchants only need to configure keywords, and the system can automatically capture all comments and classify products into orders for customers to choose.

Take the live broadcast of SHOPLINE SC X Facebook as an example: Step 1: The merchant assigns keywords to the products and adds them to the live broadcast room; Step 2: During the live broadcast, broadcast the keywords of the products, such as "C3", and guide users to leave messages in the comment area.

Step 3: Customers reply to product keywords in the comments and get automatically generated links to participate in the purchase.

Considering that merchants may set up live broadcasts from multiple platforms, all Livestream will be collected in the SHOPLINE backstage live broadcast dashboard, which can be realized whether viewing real-time orders, replying to messages, tracking inventory or reminding checkout.

SHOPLINE’s social e-commerce strategy helps sellers accumulate global user assets and realize the continuous growth of GMV by dredging traffic conversion.

Third, to achieve the ultimate localization, they chose SHOPLINE.

SHOPLINE Social Commerce is a leading social e-commerce service platform in Southeast Asia, which has provided services to tens of thousands of merchants, with weekly orders reaching 100,000+and GMV of 10 million dollars, mainly generated by live broadcast for merchants in Southeast Asia.

SHOPLINE insists on localization services in the local market, and more and more brand businesses accumulate potential energy and increase the speed through cooperation with SHOPLINE in Indonesia.

QQ Music VS Netease Cloud Music, which is the most practical to support musicians?

image.png

 

Musicians’ income distribution map, the data comes from "2019 China Musicians’ Living Situation Report".

In addition to the head musicians, more musicians have become the "silent majority", and they urgently need traffic exposure and income support. At present, mainstream music platforms have launched musician support programs to provide musicians with all-round creative support.

For musicians, it is good that someone is willing to support their musical dreams, but in the face of many support plans and hype, how do you choose between various support plans according to your own situation?

Now, we will compare the support plans of QQ Music, Netease Cloud Music and Xiami Music in detail, and sort out their differences and advantages and disadvantages, hoping to give some references and suggestions to musicians and friends.

First, the copyright dispute, the battlefield entered the upstream of the industry

As we all know, the music platform’s support plan is not just for public welfare, at least. The music platform hopes to incubate a group of singers who come out of their own homes, and establish the exclusive signboard of the platform while attracting more users.

This involves a problem that musicians didn’t pay much attention to before, but now they are very cautious-copyright.

In Netease Cloud’s support plan, the terms implied that all the works uploaded by musicians belong to the platform, and the content of the copyright agreement is directly related to the musician’s income and whether the platform will tamper with the musician’s works.

At the beginning of 2019, @ Flynn’s voice reminded the majority of musicians, and the unfair terms of Netease Cloud Music severely bound the copyright of musicians’ works. After the incident was exposed, it had a big impact on the platform.

image.png

 

Flynn’s exposure article at that time

As we all know, the competition for copyright among various music platforms is extremely fierce, and making up for the copyright disadvantage is the potential demand of Netease Cloud and Shrimp. The copyright fortress of QQ music is very strong. In the official tweet of QQ music open platform, it is clearly stated that the content of "song authorization" and "musician signing" will be launched in the near future, and there will be a transparent and perfect system.

Relatively speaking, the purpose of the support plan launched by Shrimp and Netease Cloud is more to make up for the copyright disadvantage; QQ music, which has already established a strong copyright barrier, is more pure, that is, it really gives musicians a good growth and creative environment.

Second, the domain line, group-oriented tolerance and segmentation

In Xiami Music’s early years, relying on minority tastes and literary temperament, a large number of young artists were harvested. From the "unexposed" musicians excavated by the light-seeking plan, it can be seen that the main audience of dried shrimp is indie musician, mainly rock and electronic musicians.

Netease Cloud Music’s Stone Project is also dedicated to the young indie musician, and has been digging in the vertical fields of rock and hip-hop. The "rock season" that ended before was won by the Summer Invasion Planning Band, which began to appear in major music festivals. Next, Project Stone will continue to pay attention to the long tail music in the field of focus, and it is expected to tap musicians in the fields of hip-hop and electronics.

QQ Music Support Program is also more widely oriented to groups, except rock, rap, pop, classical, Urban, ACG, Chinese style, including cover artists and video artists, all of which can enter the QQ music open platform. Compared with other platforms’ strategies of focusing on feelings, QQ music gives consideration to feelings and mass market by virtue of user scale, just like owning the copyrights of Modern Sky and Jewell at the same time. No matter what kind of music you are good at, QQ music should always cover fans who like you.

image.png

 

Generally speaking, QQ music open platform is the most inclusive, which is a good thing for more independent musicians; Netease Cloud and Shrimp are more focused on the excavation of long tail music, and of course the threshold requirements are higher; The specific choice depends on your own needs and ambitions.

Third, traffic is king, which is better or worse under the transparent mechanism?

Here, we mainly analyze QQ Music and Netease Cloud Music. Both of their musician support plans have detailed in-terminal points exchange traffic rules, while other platforms only generally express "10 billion exposure" and "traffic support", so we can’t get more details.

QQ Music takes "Yinbei" as the integral unit, and Netease Cloud Music takes "Yundou" as the integral unit, so we can intuitively compare their concerns about the flow of musicians by comparing the difficulty and value of obtaining the integral.

Integral acquisition mode

image.png

 

From the above figure, the difference between the two platforms in the way of obtaining points is not big. QQ music mainly includes two aspects: "the amount of existing works played" and "new fans added". The more plays, the more fans there are, and the more sound shells there are, and the more real plays can promote this cycle, which I like better.

Difficulty and value of integral acquisition

In order to facilitate everyone’s understanding, we can explain it from specific scenarios:
Let’s assume that a musician who has just entered the platform completes the basic tasks of the platform such as daily sign-in and fan interaction on time and in quantity in the first month. What can he get on the two platforms after one month?

image.png

 

In QQ music, 4550 Yinbei can get 4550 songs to play and promote, a private letter from fans, and two months of luxury green diamonds;

In Netease Cloud Music, you need to accumulate 500 cloud beans to redeem a traffic packet, so 81 cloud beans can’t get anything for the time being.

Assuming that this operation process continues and musicians want to obtain 10K traffic resources, what do they need Takuwa to do on both platforms?

image.png

 

QQ music 10K traffic = 6 tasks completed in 2 months.
Netease cloud music 10K traffic = 11 tasks completed in 5 months.

Through the above comparison, we further summarize the two platforms from the perspective of traffic:
1. There are more ways to obtain QQ music than Netease Cloud Music, and the conditions for obtaining it are easier.
2, QQ music traffic is simple and clear; Netease cloud music traffic acquisition threshold is relatively high, and QQ music "Yinbei" is more valuable than Netease cloud’s "Yundou". In addition, in Netease Cloud Music, only 500 cloud beans can be packaged in exchange for 10,000 traffic packets, which is equivalent to 10,000 exposures, but not equal to the broadcast volume. In QQ music, 1 tone is equal to 1 successful broadcast, which is too much compared with "exposure".

In contrast, perhaps due to the gap between the ability of background distribution technology and the size of users, the traffic support system of QQ music is far higher than Netease Cloud in terms of the convenience and difficulty of obtaining, the clarity of rules and the actual exposure value.

It is worth mentioning that QQ music not only provides flow support for musicians, but also provides a mature work management system, which is really worry-free at present-many complicated signing and authorization issues we have seen are not only cumbersome, but also easy to pit. In the release cycle of works, it is particularly inconvenient to upload and review at different levels. This time, QQ music directly simplifies the whole process of music authorization, release and operation, so that musicians can easily complete most operations directly on the platform, and no longer face the "dilemma" of "choosing platform traffic support, they can only exhaust their efforts under various complicated terms and conditions".

Fourth, directly poke the pain point, only with financial support can we show sincerity.

As mentioned earlier, lack of money and difficulty in promotion are two major problems faced by everyone who makes music. Netease Cloud Stone Project provides disguised financial support for the champion by providing recording records and shooting MV. The Shrimp-and-Light Project also provides services such as music recording for musicians, saving money for musicians.

At present, QQ Music hasn’t given a reply in terms of funds, but from the detailed rules of traffic support and opening to all musicians, we can see QQ Music’s determination to do a good job in this musician support plan. The official tweet said that "a very sincere cash-out plan will be announced soon", and Tencent, which has a big family, will definitely have more real support in terms of funds, which is worth our expectation.

image.png

 

At present, the music market in China is in the upward stage, and the awareness of copyright in the whole industry is increasing. Respecting intellectual property rights has become the consensus of the online students, and paying for listening to music has become a trend. Therefore, musicians have begun to see the way forward by relying on their works. I also hope that the musician support programs of each platform can really help every enthusiastic and simple musician, so that their harvest can match their talents, and the platform can expand its influence through the support programs and contribute to the future of Chinese music.

Implementing the "Three Guarantees" Guarantee Mechanism of Cities and Counties in Four Dimensions in Ningxia

September 18, 2021 Source: Office of Finance Department of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region

  Grass-roots government’s basic livelihood, wages and operation are the basic needs to protect the vital interests of the masses, and also the basic conditions to promote the government’s performance of duties and the implementation of various policies. The CPC Central Committee and the State Council attach great importance to this. In 2018, the Central Economic Work Conference proposed to improve the basic financial security mechanism at the county level and enhance the ability of difficult areas and grassroots governments to ensure wages, operations and basic people’s livelihood. The 2019 government work report proposes to reform and improve the county-level basic financial security mechanism, ease the pressure of financial operation in difficult areas, and never let the basic people’s livelihood security go wrong. Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, as an underdeveloped area in northwest China, has been affected by its own financial shortage and epidemic situation in recent years, and the financial revenue and expenditure situation is particularly severe. In order to effectively ensure the normal operation of grass-roots finance, the autonomous region’s finance strengthens the internet thinking, implements the "three guarantees" guarantee mechanism of cities and counties from four dimensions, ensures that the "three guarantees" guarantee of cities and counties at the grass-roots level is put in place, realizes the smooth operation of the whole region’s finance, and steadily improves people’s livelihood security.

  First, build a "three guarantees" guarantee mechanism with engineering thinking

  The work of "three guarantees" at the grass-roots level is a systematic project with wide coverage, strong comprehensiveness and professionalism, which runs through all aspects of financial work. The finance of the autonomous region should make overall plans for development and security, and build a "three guarantees" guarantee mechanism of "system+technology" with engineering thinking. In the financial integration platform, the ability of big data integration analysis is used to organically combine budget management and implementation monitoring, and the budget management integration system is established to control and implement the "three guarantees" guarantee mechanism. Promote the efficiency optimization of the "three guarantees" guarantee mechanism in cities and counties from the perspectives of task objectives, time-point monitoring and guarantee measures, and realize the timely and full payment of the "three guarantees" expenditures of grassroots finance, and the operational risks can be pre-controlled.

  According to the concept of "integration of information sources, automation of data extraction, and optimization of monitoring and decision-making", the work of "three guarantees" is comprehensively and systematically sorted out from the design of financial macro-business framework to the micro-monitoring of specific accounting indicators, and an information-based, full-chain, dynamic management mechanism of "three guarantees" budgets in cities and counties is established to comprehensively standardize budget management and harden budget constraints. From the task goal, we should construct a "three guarantees" guarantee mechanism with budget arrangement, capital guarantee and system constraint in place; From the time node, it covers the whole process links such as budget demand calculation, project library construction, budget editing, implementation monitoring, analysis and early warning, notification and feedback; From the specific implementation, it is subdivided into financial resources, treasury, budget implementation and temporary payment and other indicators.

  Second, implement the "three guarantees" guarantee responsibility with the project concept

  Establish a "three guarantees" budget management mechanism with the project library as the source, and dynamically record the whole life cycle management information of budget projects in real time. According to the "Three Guarantees" guarantee content, it corresponds to specific projects, personnel projects and operation projects in the budget project library respectively. Through the standardized management of the "Three Guarantees" budget projects through the budget integration system, the whole life cycle management of budget project comparison, statistics, analysis and monitoring is realized, the binding force of each link of budget management is enhanced, and the responsibility of "Three Guarantees" guarantee is promoted at the grassroots level in cities and counties.

  From the aspect of project reserve management, around the demand calculation and project library construction, cities and counties establish project libraries against the "three guarantees" guarantee list, and accurately calculate the expenditure demand according to the actual implementation standards and scope, so as to improve the accuracy of the "three guarantees" budget preparation. According to the scale of available financial resources in the current year, calculate the financial guarantee multiple of the "three guarantees" expenditure in each region, clarify the source of budgetary funds for the "three guarantees" project, and give priority to the "three guarantees" project in the budget.

  From the aspect of budget preparation management, in the process of budget compilation and project identification, the finance of the autonomous region has established a budget preparation and review mechanism covering all cities and counties in the region to ensure that all the "three guarantees" expenditures of cities and counties are included in the budget without leaving a hard gap. Mark the relevant project libraries with "Three Guarantees" in budget preparation, and set up the verification rules and traceability rules for the requirements of the "Three Guarantees" budget projects based on the budget integration system. On the premise of ensuring the budget arrangement and demand matching of the "Three Guarantees", the "Three Guarantees" project library will be used as the source to lay the foundation for the fund allocation, disbursement and full chain monitoring of the "Three Guarantees" budget project library.

  From the aspect of project execution and management, we should take the normalization mechanism of direct funds and the integrated norms of budget management as the starting point to harden the budget binding force, strengthen the standardized and efficient implementation of the "three guarantees" project library, urge cities and counties to strictly implement the "two expenditures" priority principle, reasonably balance the "three guarantees" budget expenditures, and realize the accurate and efficient implementation of the financial "three guarantees" funds. Linkage regional temporary payment and hidden debt funds in place, to prevent risk factors affecting the implementation of "three guarantees", to ensure the smooth operation of finance without risks.

  Third, build a "three guarantees" monitoring system with inventory management

  The finance of the autonomous region monitors the implementation of the "three guarantees" expenditure in the whole process by means of inventory management, and constructs an all-round dynamic monitoring and management mechanism. Strengthen the means of financial big data integration, solve the practical problems of "three guarantees" with a large number of monitoring data and a wide range, establish an orderly, scientific and efficient monitoring and prevention system, and achieve early detection, early warning, early intervention and early disposal of risks.

  Build a scientific and reasonable monitoring system. According to the scope and objectives of "Three Guarantees", the specific tasks are decomposed one by one, and the monitoring system of "Three Guarantees" is built by inventory management: four items of "basic livelihood, wages, operation and other rigid expenditures" are the main body, and eight indicators are radiated, including financial security multiple, treasury security multiple, budget arrangement in place rate, financial gap rate of short income, temporary payment compression rate, supernumerary control rate and implicit debt resolution fund in place rate. According to the importance of each index, different weights are given, and the results of index implementation are scored quantitatively every month, so as to objectively analyze the financial operation status and support ability of cities and counties as a whole and fully reflect the risk level of financial operation of cities and counties.

  Strengthen the ability of data monitoring and analysis. Strengthen digital empowerment, give full play to the advantages of large amount of financial data, strong timeliness and high correlation, extract monitoring data based on the financial integration system, and objectively analyze the financial operation. According to the data such as the implementation of the "three guarantees" budget and the treasury funds of cities and counties, we will strengthen the data penetration and analysis, and form the monitoring and analysis ability of the "three guarantees" operation of cities and counties with full coverage, multiple indicators, penetration, dynamics and informationization. Establish a "three guarantees" monitoring system of weekly report and monthly report. The monitoring results are displayed by multi-dimensional index statistics and visual graphics, and the financial operation of each region is divided into "smooth operation, low risk, moderate risk and high risk" grades, which strongly supports scientific decision-making in cities and counties and efficiently supervises and accurately manages.

  Strengthen the feedback of risk monitoring results. Regularly submit the dynamic monitoring results of "three guarantees" and rigid expenditures to the party committees and governments of autonomous regions every month, and inform the party committees and governments of cities and counties. For cities and counties above the "moderate risk" level, prompt early warning by SMS, WeChat, sending reminder letters, etc. at the first time; For cities and counties where the "three guarantees" work is ineffective or the guarantee is not in place, informed criticism will be located in the whole region, and the leaders of the autonomous region government will be interviewed or invited to interview the relevant person in charge of the city and county governments as appropriate; Responsible units and personnel in serious cases shall be brought to the attention of relevant departments for accountability according to their responsibilities. Actively guide cities and counties to strengthen the "three guarantees" work, ensure that risk prevention and control and responsibilities are put in place, and comprehensively improve the operational efficiency of financial management.

  Four, to resolve the "three guarantees" risk warning with the responsibility mechanism

  According to the accountability mechanism of "whoever bears the responsibility for the guarantee bears the responsibility for the expenditure", and according to the monthly monitoring results of "three guarantees" in cities and counties, the "three guarantees" risk early warning is implemented to resolve the main responsibility. Cities and counties’ financial departments should strengthen cooperation with relevant departments and budget units according to the specific indicators of the monthly monitoring report, be more accurate and effective in the focus, intensity, rhythm and timing of fiscal policy regulation, earnestly grasp the responsibility of "three guarantees" and effectively resolve financial operation risks.

  On the financial level of the autonomous region, we will strengthen the overall scheduling of treasury funds, keep the treasury funds of cities and counties running within a safe range, and effectively protect the rigid needs of cities and counties such as "three guarantees" expenditures. Improve and optimize the transfer payment method, increase the sinking of financial resources, take the "three guarantees" guarantee as an important factor in the allocation of funds, strengthen the management and guidance of transfer payment funds for the "three guarantees" guarantee of cities and counties, and support cities and counties to ensure the basic and bottom line. Accelerate the reform of financial affairs and expenditure responsibilities in different fields, make every effort to ensure that cities and counties implement expenditure responsibilities, and weave a strong livelihood security network. Study and establish a financial sustainability assessment mechanism, and cities and counties will introduce or improve the basic livelihood policy standards of the "three guarantees" list to assess financial sustainability, taking into account the stage of economic and social development and financial sustainability.

  On the financial level of cities and counties, we will focus on nine key industries, strengthen fiscal and taxation policies and financial support and guidance, go all out to promote the high-quality development of county economy and the construction of financial resources, and maintain the growth of fiscal revenue in a reasonable range. Strengthen the overall planning of financial resources, optimize the allocation of financial resources, further enhance the local financial security capacity, and make overall arrangements for the "three guarantees" and bond debt service expenditures. Deepen the integration of budget management, improve the management level of "three guarantees" budget project library, implement systematic control of budget management, and strengthen the binding force of "three guarantees" expenditure. Vigorously reduce non-rigid expenditures, constantly adjust and optimize the fiscal expenditure structure, and ensure the normalization of the efficient and high-quality tight life mechanism. Strengthen the main responsibility of budget execution of departments and units, strictly implement the principle of "two expenditures", continue to accelerate the implementation progress of people’s livelihood expenditures, and effectively secure the bottom line of people’s livelihood security.

How to build a city medical group? These two models are worth learning | Improving medical services.

"The day when the graded diagnosis and treatment system is realized is the time when China’s medical system reform is successful." Ma Xiaowei, director of the National Health and Wellness Commission, said this in the "Ministerial Passage" of the National People’s Congress in 2019, which revealed the essence of China’s medical service system and the ultimate goal of medical reform.

However, to achieve the goal of graded diagnosis and treatment can not be achieved overnight. The top-level design of the National Health and Wellness Committee has long been preset, and the connection between medical associations will be included in one of the primary tasks leading to graded diagnosis and treatment.

Medical association inserts "wings" for graded diagnosis and treatment

The medical association refers to the regional medical association, which integrates the medical resources in the same area, and usually consists of three-level and two-level hospitals, community hospitals and village hospitals in a region.

In fact, as early as 2016, at the National Health and Wellness Conference, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader emphasized: speed up the construction of graded diagnosis and treatment system, improve the level of primary medical services, and for the first time in his speech, positioned "graded diagnosis and treatment" as the first of the five basic medical and health systems, demanding "breakthrough". Subsequently, the National Health and Wellness Commission and other departments issued a number of documents and policies to promote the development of medical associations.

On April 23, 2017, the General Office of the State Council issued the Guiding Opinions on Promoting the Construction and Development of Medical Consortium, which officially promoted the construction of medical consortia to a national policy. The opinions clearly required that all tertiary public hospitals should start the construction of medical consortia before the end of October 2017, and comprehensively start various forms of medical consortia.

On January 3, 2018, the Action Plan for Further Improving Medical Services (2018-2020) issued by the National Health and Wellness Commission proposed to provide continuous medical services with the medical association as the carrier in three years from 2018 to 2020.

In 2019, it entered the second year of implementing the medical association, and the related promotion work reached a new height. On May 22nd, the National Health and Wellness Commission and the State Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine jointly issued the Notice on Carrying out the Pilot Work of Urban Medical Consortium Construction, which clearly proposed to promote the construction of graded diagnosis and treatment system and medical consortium, build a high-quality and efficient medical and health service system, and gradually realize the grid layout management of urban medical consortia; It is planned that by the end of 2019, 100 pilot cities will fully start the grid layout and management of urban medical associations, and each pilot city will build at least one medical association with obvious results, initially forming a medical association management model led by urban tertiary hospitals and based on primary medical institutions, rehabilitation, nursing and other medical institutions.

On June 4, 2019, the General Office of the State Council issued "Key Tasks for Deepening the Reform of Medical and Health System in 2019", proposing to formulate management measures for medical associations, which indicates that the work of medical associations tends to a comprehensive and standardized stage, and the era of medical associations has begun.

Compared with the official implementation of the medical association in 2017, after two years, the medical association has gradually leapfrogged from "nothing" to "existence" to the development trend of improving "quality" and "quantity".

With the promotion of graded diagnosis and treatment, problems such as vague grading positioning, insufficient grass-roots capacity, lack of coordination at all levels, lack of continuity of medical services, disorderly flow of patients, poor experience and payment support have gradually surfaced, which need to be solved urgently.

The mode of urban medical group is one of the four modes of medical association. As typical representatives, Shenzhen Luohu Medical Group and Jiangsu Zhenjiang Rehabilitation Medical Group have made many explorations and achieved good results, which are worth learning from.

Luohu model: management, service, benefit and responsibility are four in one.

In 2015, taking Luohu District as a pilot, Shenzhen initiated the collectivization reform of medical institutions with administrative districts as a unit.

The medical reform in Luohu integrated five hospitals and 23 community health centers to form a hospital group. Under the principle of integration of staffing, operation management and medical services, doctors in the group realized free flow, solved the problem of lack of medical care at the grassroots level, and provided residents with the whole service of "prevention-health care-treatment-rehabilitation-nursing-old-age care".

In terms of resources, optimizing and reorganizing "similar" resources within the hospital and intensively setting up resource sharing centers such as medical examination, radiological imaging, disinfection supply, health management, logistics distribution and information management have greatly reduced operating costs.

The Group adopted a new medical insurance payment model of "lump sum of medical insurance funds and reward for savings", which forced the hospital to continuously improve its technical level and service quality and realize the transformation from "making money by treating diseases" to "preventing diseases and saving money". Because residents are not restricted from choosing hospitals, and the medical insurance expenses for residents seeking medical treatment abroad should be paid from the total amount of the group, the hospital group can only benefit more by doing a good job in preventive health care and health management, so that the contracted insured can get less sick and have fewer serious illnesses.

In terms of organizational structure, Luohu Hospital Group has established a unified legal person to co-ordinate the medical resources in the whole region, constructed a new corporate governance structure, established a responsibility community, and solved the problems of small and comprehensive hospital setting, redundant construction, low efficiency and homogeneous competition. By strengthening the community health center, implementing the contract service of family doctors, we will try our best to solve the problem of "lack of doctors, medicines and examinations" in community health, and establish a healthy community to solve the problems of lack of quality resources in community health centers and people’s distrust.

A major innovation of Luohu Medical Group is to establish an incentive mechanism of "total amount management, balance retention and reasonable over-value burden" with the hospital group as the link. Another highlight is that the health status of residents is taken as a quantitative indicator, and the assessment results are linked to financial subsidies and the annual salary of the group leadership; Implement the measure that grass-roots general practitioners enjoy the same treatment as the staff of public hospitals, and take grassroots work experience as the condition for the medical staff of the group to return to the city and be promoted.

The success of Luohu Medical Group lies in the integration of management, service, interests and responsibilities.

Rehabilitation group: minor illness in the community, serious illness in the hospital, rehabilitation back to the community.

As early as its establishment, Jiangsu Rehabilitation Medical Group was positioned as a compact medical group with assets as the link.

First of all, in terms of organizational structure, Zhenjiang Municipal Government entrusts Health Bureau as the investor to perform the function of running medical services, and establishes a medical group with Zhenjiang First People’s Hospital as the core, including 5 secondary hospitals and 10 community health centers, which makes an innovative breakthrough in management system: separating management from health administrative departments, and establishing a corporate governance structure of public hospitals, which is both public welfare and arousing enthusiasm.

Secondly, in terms of resource integration, six centers have been set up, including clinic, imaging, procurement and supply, disinfection and supply, information and community health management, and a two-way referral mechanism has been established between public hospitals and community health institutions. At the same time, community standardization construction has been strengthened, and grid management has been implemented for grassroots medical and health services, so that the overall service level of community health service institutions has been significantly improved, and patients have been rationally diverted to promote the formation of "minor illness in the community, serious illness in the hospital, and rehabilitation back to the community" While alleviating the "difficulty in seeing a doctor", group hospitals can share medical resources, so that the overall efficiency of the medical and health service system can be fully exerted, the utilization rate of medical resources can be improved, and the operating cost can be reduced.

Establish a reasonable and effective incentive mechanism, be more flexible in the mechanism of selecting and employing people, and introduce a performance-based salary system in the distribution system to mobilize the enthusiasm of medical staff; Financial subsidies will be provided to the community where doctors are dispatched from large hospitals, and the dispatched doctors will be given priority in promoting their professional titles. A joint rehabilitation ward will be set up in the community, and the hospital will send directors and head nurses to the rehabilitation patients transferred to the community, and solve the problems of equipment, medicines, nurses, referrals, etc., and carry out homogeneous medical care services.

Finally, in terms of supporting policies, Zhenjiang has given full play to the advantages of health departments in managing medical insurance and medical and health services as a whole, and carried out the reform of combined payment methods combining total budget, payment by disease type and payment by head.

The future of "communication" of medical association can be expected

Through the representative cases of Shenzhen Luohu Medical Group and Jiangsu Zhenjiang Rehabilitation Medical Group, it is not difficult to find that the construction of urban medical association has realized the effective allocation of medical resources, and has formed graded diagnosis and treatment, which has promoted health management to a certain extent and achieved the goal of medical reform. Therefore, it is a long-term project to establish a graded diagnosis and treatment system and build a medical association.

The construction of medical association and the signing service of family doctors are two important starting points for establishing a graded diagnosis and treatment system. The medical association has rebuilt and reorganized China’s medical and health service system, allowing ordinary people to enjoy all-round, full-cycle and continuous medical services in the medical association through family doctors, and to get rid of the current situation that they tend to "go up" in different medical institutions and accept fragmented and discontinuous medical services.

In addition to the strong promotion of the government, the most important thing in the construction of medical associations is to establish an internal benefit sharing mechanism, so that the institutions of medical associations can realize their own interests and development through division of labor and cooperation, resource sharing, etc. This is also the key factor for Shenzhen Luohu Medical Group and Jiangsu Zhenjiang Rehabilitation Medical Group to achieve results.

Based on the strong support of the national level for the medical association, major medical institutions are actively practicing and exploring. It can be predicted that in the next few years, by organically integrating the construction of the medical association with the contract service of family doctors, the medical association can finally achieve the "communication" of the medical association and solve the "pain" of the masses in seeing a doctor.
