Drug Price 7 years down 27 times the public did not feel: a price cut cheap medicine disappeared

CFP CFP for the plan the Development and Reform Commission announced that since March 28, the average reduction of 162 kinds of drug prices by about 20% National Development and Reform Commission to the high price attack. According to statistics, the Development and Reform Commission to reduce the highest retail price of some drugs is the 27th time in recent years.　　However, some people say that the price of medicine is still expensive, the industry also pointed out that some cheap drugs to disappear, the hospital or open expensive medicine. According to the News (reporter HUANGPE) last December, the National Development and Reform Commission lowered the top retail price of some foreign drugs, the NDRC yesterday, decided to reduce some antibiotics and circulatory system of the highest retail prices, a total of 162 varieties, nearly 1300 dosage form specifications, the average decline of 21%, It is expected to reduce the public's burden by nearly 10 billion yuan each year. Unlike the last time, the National Development and Reform Commission on foreign investment and local enterprises to play "50 Big Board", in China, nearly half of foreign pharmaceutical drugs are involved.　　However, many people reflect that the price has been reduced 27 times, fearing that the price reduction is still difficult to play a practical role. Separate pricing drug prices are still high the reporter in the price list, see, almost common people antibiotics are in the range of the price. But carefully compared, enjoy the price of a separate priced drugs, compared with the same size of the drug is still much more expensive, and even some varieties of two kinds of price difference more than 10 times.　　For example, the 250mgx12, the highest retail price for the production of Shanghai Bao is 15.2 yuan, while the highest retail price of domestic enterprises is 3.6 yuan. It is reported that in order to encourage enterprises to carry out drug research and Development, 2000 promulgated the "Drug government pricing method" to give innovative drugs pricing measures, so that the original research drug prices gradually out of the general drug price system. In fact, in addition to a small part of the patent protection period within the pure "original research drug", most of the original research drug is the patent protection period has expired drugs, but these original research drugs still enjoy the differential pricing treatment.　　An unnamed industry told reporters that the national Development and Reform Commission to the original research drug "sword", has shown that the price department is trying to reduce the gap, but from the price point of view, the original research and local pharmaceutical companies in the price difference is still very large.　　The Director of the National Development and Reform Commission introduced, in the future will also be phased to reduce other government pricing range of drug prices. Enterprise influence further squeeze the profit space of the pharmaceutical enterprises Guangzhou, a big pharma company, told reporters that most of the antibiotics they produced were in the range of prices. Although the impact has not yet been a specific figure, but the difficulties faced are very large. "The new Pharmacopoeia standards began to implement, enterprises put tens of millions of dollars will be to upgrade the technology, and the new GMP standards have been introduced, although there are five years of transition, but also need billions of true gold and silver investment." Coupled with the current packaging materials, sucrose and labor costs are rising, directly increase the cost of the enterprise. The National Development and Reform Commission to reduce the highest retail price, in fact, is to move the ceiling down, the enterprise's profit space is bound to be enteredOne step squeeze.　　"The person said. He also said that in fact, the profit space of these commonly used drugs after the price reduction in recent years, basically there is no "moisture". But the country also wants to reduce prices, enterprises have to adjust the product structure, give up some unprofitable products, develop more profitable products, and such consequences will make consumers not cheap medicinal. He suggested that the country should no longer reduce its price by taking a drug of less than 10 yuan a day.　　The state should leave the pharmaceutical companies with the space to live and be profitable so that they can have a passion for innovation and technological upgrading. Industry reaction drugs a low price cheap medicine on the missing China Pharmaceutical Enterprise Management Association told reporters that in recent years, the National Development and Reform Commission has 26 drops in drug prices, and like this price reduction, these commonly used drugs often become the target, and each price after a group of drugs because the price is too low and missing. Because the highest retail price set low, the middle of the operating space is reduced, in the doctor to open a single commission has become public rules, the rebate to doctors once reduced, the drug will be discarded by doctors.　　such as a variety of antibiotics, doctors do not start the spore can open azithromycin. On the other hand, the current hospital drug addition mechanism is an important factor. According to the provisions of the hospital in the drug purchase price on the basis of 15% to sell to patients, the hospital procurement of 100 yuan of medicine, can earn 15 yuan, if the purchase of 10 yuan of medicine, but only earn 1.5 yuan. Therefore, the hospital is willing to choose your medicine in order to earn more profits.　　Once the drug is lowered, it may be abandoned by the hospital. Therefore, in view of the common interests of doctors and hospitals, the higher the price of drugs in hospitals, the greater the purchase of hospital sales, on the contrary, once too much price, drugs will not be the market, enterprises have to not produce.　　This is the industry generally said "price death."　　The public has reported that it has dropped 27 times. Although the development and Reform Commission in the past 7 years to reduce the price of 27 consecutive times, but people still generally reflect the doctor expensive. It's normal to see a small cold at two hundred or three hundred yuan, not to mention what a big disease is. Aunt Lai lives in Yuexiu District because pneumonia has two hospitalization, the result is spent at 20,000 yuan each time, "from the hospital to discharge, daily drip, every time spend 20,000 yuan." The country always says to drop the medicine price, but drop to come down how still so expensive. "Industry experts say that the price of drugs, doctors can choose other expensive drugs to replace." This makes every country's price cut to the patient's welfare is digested by the hospital, and the people want to get the benefit is difficult. In addition, the current hospital drug abuse is also very serious, "the country each year by hanging needle 8 bottles" is a true portrayal. Results The Doctor is not only by lowering the price of drugs can be resolved, this is a systematic project, but also need public hospital reform, the implementation of the basic drug system and other coordination can be resolved. "said one industry expert.
