on september 3, the guangdong provincial commission for discipline inspection and supervision announced that cao rui, deputy secretary of the party committee of southern hospital of southern medical university, is suspected of serious violations of discipline and laws and is currently undergoing disciplinary review and supervision investigation by the guangdong provincial commission for discipline inspection and supervision.

southern medical university nanfang hospital, also known as the first affiliated hospital of southern medical university, was founded in 1941. it is a long-established large-scale comprehensive tertiary hospital and a national regional medical center.

data shows thatcao rui has served as vice president and deputy secretary of the party committee of nanfang hospital of southern medical university and has been engaged in hospital management for more than 20 years., especially inthe contribution of hospital informatization and smart medical construction is particularly outstanding, and was named the outstanding dean of guangdong hospital information management in 2019. as a result, nanfang hospital of southern medical university has become a prominent unit of local public hospital informatization and one of the first large-scale tertiary hospitals in guangdong province with the qualifications for internet diagnosis and treatment.

southern medical university plays an important role in guangdong's medical and health system. the health bureau has noticed that in the past year, the officials who have been dismissed from guangdong's medical and health system have more or less been connected to southern medical university and its affiliated hospitals.in july this year, zhu hong, former secretary of the party committee of the guangdong health commission, who was expelled from the party and removed from public office, had served as president of the southern hospital of southern medical university.

in addition to zhu hong and cao rui, there may be more scandals in guangdong's "nanjing medical university system".

focus on information construction

during the decades i have worked in the hospital,cao rui's most outstanding achievement is promoting the hospital's information construction.

in october 2018, the former health and family planning commission of guangdong province and the guangdong provincial administration of traditional chinese medicine issued the "implementation plan for further improving medical services in guangdong province (2018-2020)", proposing to build smart hospitals by means of "internet +". the nanfang hospital of southern medical university responded quickly and quickly started construction under the leadership of cao rui.

in a media interview at the time, then-vice president cao rui analyzed the two major "pain points" of the hospital. first, many patients from other places have come to the hospital for treatment over the years. in 2018, the proportion of patients from other cities reached 70%. second, the hospital has many critically ill patients. as one of the first "peak hospitals" in guangdong province, from january to november 2018, the nanfang hospital of southern medical universitythe rate of critical cases among outpatients reached 84.12%however, the hospital's internal electronic medical records, testing systems, imaging systems, etc. are not interconnected, causing great trouble for patients.

under the promotion of cao rui, nanfang hospital of southern medical university successivelywe have reached cooperation with many domestic internet giants and communication operators to introduce smart medical care, 5g and other technologies to build an internet smart hospital, and has achieved many results in the intelligent medical services and auxiliary diagnosis and treatment, successfully improving the hospital's diagnosis and treatment efficiency and information level.

after working for so many years, cao rui has gained a lot of experience and achievements in the intelligent construction of public hospitals.

regarding the prospects of internet-based physical hospitals,cao rui himself also proposed that close-knit medical alliances and specialty alliances may become the two major directions for the future.after the information within the medical alliance is connected, grassroots hospitals can transfer high-difficulty operations to southern hospital, and then transfer them to grassroots hospitals after the operations; the specialty alliance targets lung cancer and early gastrointestinal cancer, connects data through the internet, artificial intelligence, and big data to establish a more scientific and systematic clinical research system.

corruption among the “key few” frequently appears in key positions

since the anti-corruption campaign in the pharmaceutical industry was launched last year, guangdong has become the most prominent province in the country, investigating and punishing at least 41 hospital directors and secretaries. among them, zhu hong left a deep impression on the outside world.

when he was investigated, zhu hong was the party secretary and director of the guangdong provincial health commission.zhu hong is also the party secretary of the nanfang hospital of southern medical university, and cao rui is the vice president of the hospital.during their tenure at the hospital, both of them attached great importance to the construction of hospital informatization and had a good understanding. in november 2020, when the nanfang hospital of southern medical university signed a cooperation agreement with huawei, zhu hong and cao rui, as hospital leaders, both attended.

southern medical university and its hospitals are the medical highland of guangdong.the southern hospital is the most representative hospital of the "nanjing medical university" system.in 2004, the first military medical university of the people's liberation army of china was transferred to guangdong province and renamed southern medical university. it has only two directly affiliated hospitals, one of which is southern hospital. its importance is self-evident.

however, it is in such an important place that corruption incidents have occurred one after another.

over the years,among the officials investigated in guangdong's health system, several were associated with the "nanjing medical university system"chen minsheng, who was dismissed last year, was once the party secretary of southern medical university; duan yufei, the former director of the guangdong provincial health commission, once advocated the "peak plan" for the construction of high-level hospitals in guangdong. the southern hospital of southern medical university was selected as the first batch of units, and zhu hong was the party secretary of the hospital at that time. in the end, zhu hong was "double-opened" in july, and duan yufei was decided to be arrested at the end of august.
