End illegal deals between patients and doctors

MORE THAN 1.5 BILLION YUAN ($218 MILLION) was misappropriated from the medical insurance fund last year, according to a report released by the National Audit Office. Beijing News commented on Wednesday:

The National Audit Office report outlined 180 cases in which doctors and patients conspired to swindle the country out of over 200 million yuan by forging hospitalization records and having non-existent treatment costs reimbursed by the medical insurance fund.

Such collusion is deceptive and not easy to track. In other words, it is almost impossible to nip such medical fraud in the bud, and there might be yet more such fraud that remains undiscovered.
