On April 19, 2025, “Western Hospital Management and Pharmaceutical Innovation Development Conference - The Third Academic Conference of Chengdu Hi-Tech Medical Association Operation and Management Committee”, organized by Chengdu Hi-Tech Medical Association and Sichuan University West China Hospital Shangjin Hospital, was successfully held in Chengdu. Focusing on the strategy of high-quality development of public hospitals, the conference conducted in-depth discussions on the cutting-edge issues of hospital operation and management, aiming at exploring the specialized operation and management system that fits the characteristics of county medical care, and promoting the paradigm shift of medical institutions from the expansion of scale to the creation of value.

The opening ceremony of the conference was hosted by Wu Zhaoqi, Chairman of Chengdu Hi-Tech Medical Association's Specialized Committee on Operation and Management, who invited Xue Fan, Vice President of West China Shangjin Hospital of Sichuan University and Supervisor of Chengdu Hi-Tech Medical Association, to deliver a speech for the conference. President Xue said that public hospitals are now in a critical period of high-quality development and are facing unprecedented opportunities and challenges. He emphasized that medical institutions must keep pace with the times, actively explore innovative management modes, and take refined management and system construction as the core to promote the transformation of hospital operation from rough to refined and scientific.

The academic conference kicked off under the banner of party building leadership, emphasizing that in the context of the new era, hospital operation and management need to be closely integrated with the party's policies, combining compliance and efficient operation organically, and building a firm foundation for the sustainable development of hospitals.

Participating experts deeply analyzed the challenges and opportunities faced by public hospitals in the process of high-quality development, and discussed how to achieve a win-win situation of cost control and service quality through refined management and system construction. By sharing the practical experience of hospital process optimization, they put forward the long-term goal of providing patients with better and more efficient healthcare services by focusing on patients, integrating healthcare resources, and improving the efficiency and quality of healthcare services. At the same time, agile management and cross-departmental collaboration are also the key to promote the efficient operation of hospital management. Through the introduction of project management concepts and the construction of a scientific talent building model, we can improve management effectiveness and realize the refinement and scientization of hospital operations. In the face of increasingly stringent health insurance regulatory requirements, hospitals need to strengthen internal management, improve risk prevention and control mechanisms, ensure the rational use of health insurance funds, and maintain the sustainability of the health insurance system.

The successful organization of this conference has set up a high-end academic exchange platform for the field of operation and management of public hospitals, and promoted the sharing of experience and collision of ideas among peers. The consensus and results reached at the conference are like a “key to break the game”, providing a powerful guide for hospitals to move forward on the road of high-quality development. In the future, Chengdu Hi-Tech Medical Association will continue to join hands with all parties to promote the continuous innovation and development of hospital operation and management, and contribute more wisdom and strength to improve the level of medical services and protect people's health and well-being.
