Doctors' evaluation urgently needs to break the "four-way" with greater efforts

medical papers are still the worst hit by academic misconduct. The Ministry of Science and Technology recently reported the paper fraud and other 9 cases of scientific research violations, 7 for doctors to buy papers or publish papers in violation of the law. These violation cases once again remind that the relevant departments should make greater efforts to promote the reform of the medical and health field talent assessment and evaluation system, come up with scientific and feasible detailed measures, and effectively let the "four only" land, effective.
this is not the first time the field of biomedicine has been the focus of public opinion. In recent years, many of the parties involved in the mass withdrawal of internationally renowned academic journals have been doctors, including well-known doctors in key departments of top hospitals. Although any objective reason can not and should not become an excuse for academic fraud, but can not avoid the fact that frequent medical paper fraud, indeed highlights the talent evaluation system, "only thesis fixed talent" shortcomings. "When evaluating the title, it is better to do 1000 operations than to send an SCI thesis", which becomes the most graphic summary of the unreasonable evaluation mechanism of doctors.
in order to reverse the talent evaluation of the "four only" tendency, the relevant departments of the state in recent years can be described as a big recruitment. Under the impetus of the "Opinion on Deepening Project Review, Talent Evaluation, Institutional Evaluation Reform" and the "Notice on the Special Action of "Only Papers, Only Title, Only Education, Only Awards" on The Clean-up, the parties have carried out corresponding reform explorations.
In the field of medicine and health, in June last year, the Ministry of Science and Technology, together with the National Health and Health Commission, carried out a pilot job title reform in the National Clinical Medical Center, selected three clinical centers to formulate reform programs, promote the pilot work, and achieved results in improving the evaluation system for different types of medical workers, decentralizing the authority for the evaluation of senior health professional title, implementing a dual-employment mechanism and a pre-employment system, providing useful experience for the classification of job title promotion in the health system.

Wang Weihuan previously revealed that for the medical staff fighting in the fight against the new crown pneumonia front line, this year, Central South Hospital will be further tilted in the job title evaluation, to cure the disease capacity and clinical practical contribution to the evaluation.
but these points of exploration and breakthrough has not yet become the mainstream of talent evaluation. The government banner clearly broke the "four only", the policies of various departments hit the pain point, but at the executive level, some of the relevant responsible persons dare not assume, holding the "prefer not to do can not do wrong" mentality, but in the original evaluation system to do some irrelevant small changes, especially most public medical institutions, still with the paper as the main indicator of assessment and promotion of title.
's assessment and evaluation is a real problem. Whether doctors should be strictly divided into clinical lines and scientific research lines, if clinicians to clinical service capacity to evaluate, then this assessment should include what indicators, different departments of doctors how to compare, which should consider a variety of factors. However, due to difficulties, it is more enough for managers with great courage and wisdom to make great efforts to promote the solution, break the inertia of the original evaluation system, and explore more scientific and operational evaluation methods. When the paper is no longer a "chip", the doctor also has no "motive". Let doctors who have the ability and will to go further on the academic road, sum up cases with high-level papers, find problems and solve problems, and let doctors who do not want to do scientific research and write papers, but who want to take the road of practical service to patients, can also be respected and recognized, for example, Chinese medicine can make great progress.
