[Reporter Li Lianghui/Taipei Report] In order to strengthen labor medical treatment and reconstruction assistance for occupational accidents, the Ministry of Labor is actively promoting the accreditation system for specialized hospitals for the diagnosis and treatment of occupational injuries and functional rehabilitation of occupational accidents, which will be officially launched next year. Officially inaugurated in the three places, there are 15 occupational injury and disease diagnosis and treatment and 28 occupational accident functional rehabilitation hospitals across the country, providing medical and reconstruction services for occupational accident workers.

Today's unveiling ceremony was presided over by Xu Mingchun, the Minister of Labor in the north. Xu Mingchun pointed out that in the past, the business related to the diagnosis and treatment of occupational injuries was entrusted with the annual procurement professional entrustment, and the business was handed over to the top 10 occupational injuries in the northern, central, southern and eastern districts. The prevention and control center handles it, but due to limited funds and personnel changes in the main hospital, it is difficult to train and retain professional manpower, and it is difficult to continue the business.

After the "Labor Occupational Accident Insurance and Protection Law" was enacted and implemented, there was an "accreditation mechanism" for medical and rehabilitation services related to occupational injuries and diseases. Medical or rehabilitation institutions submitted applications, and after being approved by legal procedures, they became Specialized hospitals for the diagnosis and treatment of occupational injuries or specialized rehabilitation for occupational accidents.

As for other small-scale medical institutions with insufficient resources but with occupational medicine outpatient clinics, they can also join the network hospitals affiliated with accredited hospitals dedicated to the diagnosis and treatment of occupational injuries to jointly provide regional occupational injury diagnosis and treatment services.

Today, the Ministry of Labor held the unveiling ceremony of dedicated hospitals simultaneously in the North (the Affiliated Hospital of National Taiwan University), the Central (the Affiliated Hospital of China Medical University), and the South (Kaohsiung Municipal Xiaogang Hospital). Starting today, there are 15 specialized hospitals for the diagnosis and treatment of occupational injuries and 28 specialized rehabilitation hospitals for occupational accidents across the country, providing high-quality medical and reconstruction services for occupational accident workers.
