The people's access to medical care has always been the focus of people's livelihood. With the deepening of the reform of the medical and health system, in recent years, more and more drugs have been reduced in price, and the price of medical equipment supplies, also in the past January, the full landing, which includes the people are very concerned about the cardiac stent. How has the national collection and procurement of coronary stents been utilized around the country in the past month? In the face of the still high value of medical supplies, how else will the procurement mechanism work?

Jiang Changsong, an associate researcher at the National Institute for Medical Security at Capital Medical University, said: ? Price reduction? The bracket has been fully implemented in the country Price reduction? The first batch of stents was implemented in 18 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities, and comprehensive coverage has been achieved by today. After the price of coronary stent products dropped from 13,000 yuan to an average of 700 yuan, in some places, medical consumable products such as artificial crystals, hemodialysis and orthopedic traumatology, have also begun to pilot centralized procurement. ? Price reduction? Bracket landing implementation of a month, patients, doctors and hospitals all parties are benefited Jiang Changsong, deputy researcher of the National Institute for Medical Security of Capital Medical University: patients: this time the biggest benefit is the patient group. First of all, the economic burden has a very obvious decline; at the same time, it also improves the quality level of the product, which is often said to improve the product grade; in addition, it also expands the accessibility. In the past, some patients chose conservative treatment because of financial burden, but now they can use the selected high-quality, affordable stents. Doctors: Before, it might take a bit of effort to communicate with patients about the use of the product because of financial reasons, but now that the price of the product has come down, the cost of communication has been reduced dramatically, so doctors have embraced this reform. Hospitals: from the hospital's point of view, they got an advance payment, improved cash flow, all parties are benefited.

The small increase in use after the price reduction of cardiac stents indicates good standardization of clinical use ? Jiang Changsong, associate researcher at the National Institute for Medical Security Research at Capital Medical University: Looking at the year-over-year and year-over-year data, and by converting it to the same number of working days, the use of medium-selective stents, including all stents, has increased modestly, with no major fluctuations. There was neither a significant increase nor a significant decrease, it was a slight increase. This is also in line with our previous prediction, which indicates that the standardization of our clinical use of stents is relatively good. ?

No need to worry! Cardiac stent price reduction does not reduce quality Jiang Changsong, associate researcher at the National Institute for Health Care Research, Capital Medical University: The quality has not been discounted at all, and the price reduction does not reduce the quality has been fully reflected. From the social responsibility of the selected companies to the surgical techniques of doctors using the products, as well as the efficacy, there has been no discount whatsoever. Product quality is responsible for the first main body is the enterprise, the enterprise will not take their own reputation to joke; selected products or previous products, with the collection before is exactly the same, and did not discount; ? The alloy stent that can be included in the scope of this collection and procurement is itself a high-quality product; the drug supervision department and medical department will cooperate with each other to increase the inspection and the reporting of adverse reaction events.
