people in relevant industries are secretive
On the “bribery” exposed by Dr. Aifen, the reporter of the financial investment newspaper found that many public hospitals kept it secret.
A person who asked not to be named said: “some public hospitals can\’t do ophthalmic surgery. If patients need surgery, they are generally recommended to other larger public hospitals. However, if patients are in a hurry or find it difficult to register, they can only go to private hospitals.”
