change----aprofoundtransformation

巨变，突变，突发性彻底转变和其很多精彩的英语词汇一样，sea

change的灵感同样出自莎士比亚大师之手。莎翁的最终一部传奇剧作《暴风雨》（The

Tempest）中，莎翁用sea

change来表示一种根本的、彻底的变更，就像某物长期沉没在水中所发生的变更一样。其实，从莎翁的年头到今日，英语本身也阅历了sea

change。

5.protonpumpinhibitors----质子泵抑制剂其他医疗体制模式-“英国模式”：是指英国国家卫生服务体系(NationalHealthSystem，NHS)，政府举办和管理医疗机构，居民免费获得医疗服务；医疗服务体系是典型的从上到下的垂直体系；服务体系是双向转诊体系；医疗经费80%以上来自政府的税收，其余来自私人医疗保险。

-“德国模式”：即全民医疗保险制度，医疗保障和医疗服务体系分别，雇主和雇员向作为第三方的医疗保险机构缴费，保险机构与医疗机构(公立、私立都可以)签约以供应服务，不能参保者才由政府供应医疗服务。

“美国模式”：美国是发达国家中唯一没有全民保险制度的国家，其医疗制度，无论是财源确保方式还是医疗供应方法都是以私营为主。个人医疗保险，除个人单独购买的保险外，主要是雇主自发地给雇员及其扶养者供应的群体性健康保险。美国总统奥巴马2010年3月23日在白宫签署了医疗保险

改革法案。法案首次明文规定，几乎全部美国人都应

在2014年前拥有医疗保险。对于年收入低于43320美元

的个人和低于73240美元的三口之家，联邦政府将赐予

医保补贴。

依据新的医改法案，美国将建立以州为基础的医疗保

险交易所，小企业和个人可以在交易所里通过联合议

价，享受与大公司员工或联邦政府雇员同样实惠的保

险费率。

小企业为员工购买医疗保险还将享受政府税收减免。

与此同时，政府还将对高收入群体加征个人所得税

并对高额保单加征消费税，作为医改资金的重要来源。此外，医改法案加强了对保险行业的监管。依据法案，政府可以通过一系列奖惩措施敦促企业向雇员供应医保；保险公司不得以投保者的过往病史为由拒保或者收取高额保费，不得在投保人患病后单方面终止保险合同，不得对投保人的终身保险赔付金额设置上限等。医改实施后，无医保者将是医改最大受益者。目前，全美约4600万人没有医保，医改将使其中3200万人获保，从而使医保覆盖率从85％升至95％，距离全民医保只有一步之遥。对于低收入人群来说，这个法律极大地扩大了医疗救助范围。此外，很多有工作的穷人赖以生存的社区医疗中心也会得到更多的资金支持。Para.71.manometry----（食管）压力测定2.pHmonitoring----Para.81.costsavingsof…over----成本低于
