This is an atrium in Hangzhou First People Hospital, China where Jin Fang’s sister, Yu Fang is working. From the top down, the hospital looks like a five star hotel. The hospital is completely computerized and has paperless medical system. After visiting their physicians, patients take their little booklets with bar codes on it to an accounting office, every floor has this system; the computer will make an announcement as to how much the patient should pay and how much the change is at the same time, it also shows this on a little screen and the patient can see it. The system has been in place for three years. The hospital fills with a lot of people, but is very quiet and clean.
