The draft for comment on standardization of medical accompaniment services has been officially released, setting norms for the accompaniment industry. The standard clarifies that accompaniment must not replace medical decision-making, only providing administrative and language support, and requires establishing service evaluation and complaint closed loops.
Standard highlights
The draft proposes clear requirements for the content of accompaniment services, personnel qualifications, service processes and quality control. The core principle is: accompaniment personnel provide medical assistance and language support, but medical decisions must be made jointly by doctors and patients.
Significance for patients
Standardized accompaniment services make patients clearer about service boundaries and guarantees, avoiding misunderstandings caused by information asymmetry. A regulated industry environment also improves overall service quality.
How to choose accompaniment services
When choosing services, refer to the partner hospital recommended list and pay attention to accompaniment personnel qualifications, service records and evaluation feedback.
