In the near future, people from Da Nang city to Ca Mau province will be
better served in medical examination and treatment as many hospitals are
planning to set up satellite units throughout southern Vietnam in an effort to
ease patient overloading.

Such satellite facilities will
provide examination and treatment in the areas of oncology, heart, trauma, obstetrics
and pediatrics, the sectors that have experienced serious patient overloading
at large hospitals.
Accordingly, 21 satellite
hospitals will be set up in the region, including three in Can Tho city, three
in Ba Ria-Vung Tau province, two each in Lam Dong, Binh Duong, Dong Nai and
Tien Giang, and the remaining in other localities.
In Ho Chi Minh City, the Oncology
Hospital in District 1 expects to choose five hospitals in Binh Dinh, Khanh
Hoa, Dong Nai, Kien Giang and Can Tho provinces as its satellite units.
Such units are necessary since
more than 70 percent of patients at the hospital come from other areas, said Dr
Le Hoang Minh, director of the hospital.
The Nhan Dan Gia Dinh Hospital in
Binh Thanh District is also planning to have four satellite hospitals in Lam
Dong, Vung Tau, Binh Duong and Hau Giang.
Similarly, the Tu Du Obstetrics
Hospital will choose a number of hospitals in Tien Giang, Can Tho, Ba Ria-Vung
Tau, Tay Ninh, Khanh Hoa, Binh Thuan, Lam Dong, and Kon Tum.
This month Tu Du will begin
providing technical assistance to its first satellite, the Tien Giang
Obstetrics Hospital in Tien Giang province.
The Pediatrics Hospital 1 also
plans to set up affiliates in Can Tho, Tien Giang and Kien Giang, while
Pediatrics Hospital 2 will choose hospitals in Ca Mau, Binh Duong, Dong Nai,
and Ba-Ria-Vung Tau as its satellites.
The satellite hospital model,
which have been allowed by the Health Ministry, is developed for Southern
Vietnam after two large hospitals in Hanoi – Bach Mai and Viet Duc –
successfully implemented the model, improving treatment quality and reducing
patient overloading.
Bach Mai now has eight satellite
hospitals in several northern provinces while Viet Duc has six units.
