  • Sports seem OK for many with heart-zapping device

    FILE - In this Dec. 7, 2012, file photo, Utah State basketball player Danny Berger holds a defibrillator, like the one implanted in his chest, following a news conference at Intermountain Medical Center in Murray, Utah. New research is challenging medical guidelines that say people with a heart-zapping device in their chests should avoid intense sports like basketball and soccer in favor of golf or bowling. Increasingly, teenagers and younger adults receive these implants, people who may be more active and fit but have some underlying heart abnormality that puts them at risk of an arrhythmia. Last year, Utah State forward Danny Berger collapsed on the basketball court, was revived and had a defibrillator implanted; he has said he hopes to play again.

 2008/04/24 聯合報民意論壇/台灣觀光醫療發展協會秘書長李昆侖
     詳閱廿二日「醫療拚經濟,新政府別只想搶錢」一文後,覺得對推展觀光醫療,拚經濟有必要做進一步說明。 
     台灣觀光醫療產業,早在二○○六年謝長廷擔任行政院長時由當時副院長蔡英文大力推動,召集經建會、衛生署、觀光局等單位研擬,並訂定出健檢、牙科、整形美容、雷射近視矯正、中醫等五項是台灣擁有國際競爭力的強項,這些項目大都是非健保給付項目,高單價消費且可結合旅遊觀光發展,與醫療品質降低及健保面臨破產並無任何關係,遑論「新政府只想搶錢」。 
     日本人來台灣,從早期的做假牙,泡烏來溫泉,到現在高價的人工植牙到高級的SPA,大陸客來台灣做微整形美容(電波拉皮、玻尿酸注射等)及歐美喜愛的中醫養生療法且能旅遊寶島,這些種種推動台灣經濟高階服務產業的政策推動,如何能說是「新政府只想搶錢」!
     任何政府施政方針應有其一貫性,何況扁政府已執政八年,健保制度實施也不過十二年多,健保給付、醫療政策等缺失形成應該亦需負大半的責任。新政府上台要收拾爛攤子,恐千頭萬緒,但老百姓最期望的是能改善己身的生活,「拚經濟」是做最起碼卑微的要求。希望醫界人士勿存本位立場,排斥「新政府」發展觀光醫療的決策。
