Medical Supporter — Information Notice
This article is a summary of international medical information and is not medical advice; it cannot replace the diagnosis or treatment plan of your attending physician. The medical technologies, drug information and clinical data presented here are compiled from public literature and official statements of major Japanese medical institutions; the applicability and outcome of any therapy vary with each patient and must be assessed individually by a qualified physician.
Taiwan's healthcare sector is about to undergo major changes due to the DRG (Diagnosis-Related Group) policy. Let a restaurant owner explain what DRG is and how significant its impact on Taiwan's medical care could be. This issue deserves wider public attention — more so than debates over whether immunotherapy is legally available in Taiwan, because this policy affects the entire population and the health of the medical industry as a whole.
February 1 marks the start of the new Legislative Yuan session. We look forward to seeing this country change for the better. On May 20, a new president takes office. Let us work together to ensure that every policy in this country is subject to scrutiny, and moves in a better direction.
Have a great Sunday!
