Weberching (alias), Xuzhou, Jiangsu Province, claiming to be a University of Beijing clinical professional graduates, more than more than 10 years to take office in Beijing, more than pharmaceutical circulation enterprises, to achieve senior positions.

Yesterday, the reporter dialogue Weberching.

Recently, a pseudonym Weberching men to create a "drop in drug prices" network, published more than 14,000 kinds of commonly used drugs and retail prices, the two are mostly dozens of times times the difference, causing widespread concern. "Price Reduction" network fire, the site within days of visits have been more than 8 million times, the server has been paralyzed. Weberching also fire, but still not in real identity, he said the alias "Weberching" is "for the People" homophonic.

On one side, Weberching said that the creation of the site is to let the people understand the shady, "the initiative to reject expensive drugs, to eat cheap medicine." On the other side, he in Sohu Weibo to "Long Road" network name talked about, after that will combine drug enterprises, and attract investment, the elimination of drug circulation links, open online pharmacies and so on. This also led to "the price of the sun is actually speculation and profit" question.

"Drug enterprise intimidation" and "netizens support"

BEIJING News: You are to do medicine, why "from exposing the skeleton"?

Weberching: A friend of 3-year-old children with a brain tumor, to a hospital in Beijing, a three hospitals, the disease did not look good, money has been spent. I looked at the treatment bills, the antibiotics alone, the doctors opened a lot, 3-year-olds could not have used these high-priced drugs.

I have been in the pharmaceutical enterprises for more than 10 years, clear drug production, circulation and other aspects of the shady. People who are middle-aged feel that they should act according to the conscience of the heavenly.

Beijing News: Is the medicine price offered in the website true?

Weberching: The price is the information that the pharmaceutical company passed to us when I was working in a pharmaceutical firm. Now the site has a team in charge of updating the data, and some small and medium-sized drug distributors in Beijing are willing to provide a part of the information. The data are real.

Beijing News: What is the team of the website?

Weberching: There is a team of 12 people every day to maintain the site, are my friends, with "let the drug price transparent, safeguarding the interests of the people" common purpose. I can only offer lunch lunch at the moment, they don't get paid.

Beijing News: I heard that the website has been threatened and intimidated after its opening?

Weberching: The website has done very laboriously, offended many people. A pharmaceutical company in north China called for the removal of their product information from the site, otherwise we would be looking for someone to close our website. Threat intimidation is what we had expected, but in this way we can get the price down, even if only part of it.

Now every day a netizen calls, ask what can help us to do, whether need to provide local drug price information. Yesterday, a drugstore manager called me, said that customers take the price of drugs from the site, asked why they turned over several times prices to sell medicine? The people have already had "the initiative rejects the high price medicine" the consciousness, this is we persist the impetus.

Pressure on hospital doctors by civilian supervision

Beijing News: In addition to drug companies, you also point to the large hospitals, especially in the third hospital, some doctors, think they are the hands of high-priced drugs.

Weberching: Some doctors prescribe medicine to not reason, and desperately prescribe expensive drugs, prescription. The greater the hospital, the more the benefit is obtained. Hospitals, medical representatives, pharmaceutical companies and tender companies have to make money.

After the drug entered the hospital, the normal circumstances of the fare increase of 15%, but from the Dean, Deputy Dean, pharmacy director to the attending physician, and even the head nurse should be divided into layers of fare increase, the price of medicine to mention it.

The Beijing News: so you suggest the patient on the website "The prescription, medical records and hospital fees and charges?"

Weberching: This is a way of private supervision, so that the whole society to supervise the hospital behavior, to the hospital, doctors pressure, forcing them to their reputation and strict adherence to professional norms.

Beijing News: Concrete How to do?

Weberching: For example, a gall-stone patient is in the hospital treatment of various fee documents, we found that the original antibiotic can be, actually used several kinds, once a week of routine inspection once a day or two, the ex-factory price of 10 yuan of drugs sold more than 100 yuan, that the hospital and the attending doctor must have overcharging, high fees.

At the same time, we also intend to expand the team to recruit professionals, using a non-real-name method, so that they can conduct supervision and evaluation on the Internet.

"Joguang waiting, the day Lily is cold"

Beijing News: After the website opened, have the investment agencies and advertisers to look for you?

Weberching: Want to put ads on the site a lot of businesses, but so far I only promised one, is in the homepage of a nominal technology company. This company is the website technical support, has provided us 100 trillion special line. Because the site opened a few days to visit more than 8 million times, the server crashed several degrees.

Beijing News: You also said in Weibo that you plan to open an online pharmacy?

Weberching: That's the idea. We combine some pharmaceutical companies, from the pharmaceutical company direct purchase, plus a certain amount of logistics costs sold to consumers. I believe this will reduce the price of existing medicines to some extent.

Beijing News: Some netizens question you the price of the sun, is to open the shop for profit for the advance hype.

Weberching: I want to open an online pharmacy for the purpose of forcing hospitals and pharmacies to reduce the price of drugs, you do not price, I will try to force you to drop. I want to let the hospital and pharmacies understand that the drug industry shuffle is coming, do not reduce prices will be eliminated.

In order to hype, I have a lot of ways, why so everywhere offend.

Beijing News: The online drug business requires a licence.

Weberching: At present, we are unable to obtain the license plate, also does not accord with the Beijing to the on-line medicine management, such as business time, chain stores quantity and so on stipulation. If according to this stipulation waits a few years, the medicine price still cannot fall down, then day lily vegetables all cool.

Voice

For the "drug price" nets and Weberching, yesterday, a Beijing medical company and Xuanwu Hospital, a doctor expressed his views.

Medical representative

Ex-factory price difference between normal

Mr. Xu, a pharmaceutical company in Beijing, says the retail price of pharmaceuticals across the country is controlled by the provinces, but there will be a price ceiling for drugs. The retail price on the website does not indicate where the data comes from, so it is not scientific.

Generally speaking, the same kind of medicine between the ex-factory price and the retail prices can be a few times or even 10 times times. The cost of logistics, the cost of personnel, the cost of medicine into the hospital, the cost of doctors rebate, these will cause the increase in the price of medicine. In addition, drug research and development, approval, factory, winning the bid and other links, the pharmaceutical companies and government departments, need to invest a lot of money to operate, so the drug production, it can only rely on profits to make up for the previous investment.

Mr Xu believes that even if the "Price reduction" network can obtain the online sale of drugs, it will not affect the market price of drugs have any impact. People are sick or go to the hospital, especially those who have health insurance, will certainly go to a fixed hospital for medical reimbursement. Even if you buy it on the internet with a prescription from a doctor, you may not be able to buy the medicine you need or have this consumption habit. After all, medicine is a special product.

Hospital doctor

The medicine price is high, the doctor is "putting the cart before the horse"

A doctor who asked not to be named in Xuanwu Hospital thinks that blaming the source of the high price of medicine on the doctor's head is a very radical view. The idea is to put the cart before the horse and find a few doctors who receive kickbacks to solve the problem.

The doctor admitted that to reduce the price of medicine, should go to the government department to squeeze dry water. There is something fishy about the tender, and the tender price is very problematic. At the same time, the pressure of the drug price to pressure, but some things cheap beauty of the drug prices are too low, leading to pharmaceutical companies no profits, many cheap and effective drugs are no longer produced.

At the same time, for "drying prescription" and other behavior, the doctor said, the same medicine has a cheap and expensive, from the big effect said, no difference. The key to the doctor's medication habits, but also according to the patient's health care, illness. Treatment is very complicated, and some patients with other diseases, the choice of medication will change.
