Early cancer screening is not a new term. This slogan was proposed as early as the 1970s, and it was also the only way to reduce the mortality of cancer. This concept has long been recognized by all medicalists. With the development of the Internet, it has also been more than more. The people are familiar with and recognized, so the topic of early cancer screening will become a hot spot. Promoting early cancer screening must require government level and national policy support.

However, it is not easy to implement early cancer screening in the Chinese population. It is even more difficult to incorporate it into medical insurance. After all, China's population is large. Which kind of cancer sieves in medical insurance? What medical institutions do cancer screens? Which doctors do doctors? Which doctors do doctors? Can I shoulder the work of cancer screening? ...

Even in the United States and Japan, which have developed economic and medical development, only early cancer screening is included in "medical insurance" in the "medical insurance" of bowel cancer and gastric cancer, respectively. It is lung cancer, gastric cancer, breast cancer, colorectal cancer, etc. Which kind of cancer screening requires scientific professional assessment into medical insurance.

Thanks to Academician Yu Jinming at the two sessions to make suggestions to incorporate the tumor screening into medical insurance. I believe that it can further promote this work to land as soon as possible!
