The Beijing Medical Team appeared as a proper term in the 1960 s and 1970 s.In 1965,Chairman Mao Zedong put forward the call of “putting the focus of medical and health work to the countryside”.After the success of the pilot work in Shanghai,major hospitals of Beijing sent medical teams to more than a dozen provinces,cities and autonomous regions,such as Anhui,Shandong,Henan,Yunnan,Qinghai,Tibet,Xinjiang,Ningxia and Gansu,where medical resources are relatively scarce.Not only treating the local people and protects their health,but also promotes economic development.Gansu was the only way and the prosperous stage of trade between East and West,after zhang qian open up the silk road in the han dynasty.However,since the song dynasty,the silk road has been declining day by day.In addition,the silk road is located in the inland,the natural environment is harsh,so people’s lives are relatively difficult.After the liberation of Gansu,all sorts of things started to develop,but the medical and health was relatively slow.Therefore,Premier Zhou sent the first medical teams to the Hexi of Gansu in1967.Since then,it has been continuously divided into ten batches,and more than 4,000 medical team members have come to gansu province to solve the big problem of seeing a doctor for the masses of poor peasants.The better medical resources have always been placed in central cities and developed urban areas,while the vast rural areas have no good medical conditions and medical security for a long time,Since Chairman Mao Zedong’s "6-26" directive,the Party Central Committee has responded positively and brought advanced medical personnel and technology to the people of Gansu.Leading them to self-made homemade Chinese herbal medicines,carrying out patriotic health campaigns and other activities,changing the rural health outlook,At the same time,during the medical roving period,the team members were not only required to combine the "health revolution" with the theory of thought,but also to abandon the "old" medical concept and adhere to the "integrated Chinese and Western medicine" road and seriously support "socialist new things" during the medical period.The medical treatment of the Beijing Medical Team has an indelible contribution to Gansu,leaving a lot of profound experience and lessons,which is of great significance to the development of rural medical and health care today.
