On February 17, following the screening work completed in Horqin Right Front Banner the day before, the BUCF, together with the cardiac surgery expert group of the Capital Children's Hospital Affiliated to the Institute of Pediatrics, quickly moved to Horqin Right Middle Banner to continue providing free diagnosis and screening for suspected congenital heart disease children in the local area. The expert group screened two children with congenital heart disease who met the surgical indications. Among them, one child will undergo surgical treatment in Beijing on February 26, reigniting hope for their lives.
As a pastoral banner county under the jurisdiction of Hinggan League in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, Horqin Right Middle Banner has a wide area, scattered residents, and a cold climate, which is very unfavorable for screening and treating children with congenital heart disease. The free medical screening activity not only brings good news to the children and their families, but also further demonstrates the care and responsibility of BUCF for children from disadvantaged families. After the event, the BUCF, the Political Consultative Conference of Horqin Right Middle Banner, and the Health Committee of Horqin Right Middle Banner jointly held a work symposium.
At the symposium, all parties discussed in depth how to better provide medical assistance for congenital heart disease patients in Horqin Right Middle Banner, and signed the "Framework Cooperation Agreement for the Healthy Dreams · Difficult Family Children's Medical Assistance Project". According to the agreement, the BUCF will provide surgical cost subsidies for congenital heart disease patients in Horqin Right Middle Banner, aiming to maximize the savings of medical expenses for their families, help them reduce their economic burden, and enable more patients to receive timely and effective treatment.
