An undercover investigation at the Guiyang No.6 Hospital by a CCTV reporter who pretended to be a patient’s family member, revealed that the doctors and nurses' collective departure was motivated by higher pay and "better medical conditions" in the new hospital, although there was no verification from the side of the patients or their families showing they transferred for better medical services.
Yang dismissed the claim by Guihang 300 Hospital that he took the patients without informing their guardians, saying that he had contacted all the families to get their approval before the patients left the hospital. Yang also said that he had issued the necessary certificates to patients for hospital discharges, but all the papers had been repealed by the hospital.
Yang said he was "giving a helping hand" at Guiyang No.6 Hospital right now, without signing a formal labor contract, which was confirmed by the hospital's head, Kang Zhengmao. Kang said they "do need to introduce medical talents, but haven't employed Yang since he hasn’t finished his resignation formalities."
Local health authorities had been informed of the incident and had intervened, said an official with Huaxi District Health and Family Planning Bureau of Guiyang city.
Guihang 300 Hospital is rated as a Class A hospital in China's official 3-tier hospital rating system, where a hospital is rated according to its ability to provide medical care, medical education, and to conduct medical research.
