Abstract:
In light of the scientific procedure of policy making and based on the logical deduction of direct and indirect factors related to the chaotic drug market, the authors found the root of the chaos, viz. The mechanism of reimbursement ofr medical institutions that formed a vicious circle. Inview of the root, a policy model was developed and verified, viz. The optimal utilization of medical resources. The prerequisite condition to the implementation and success of the policy is the exertion of concerted efforts by various departments concerned underthe centralized leadership of the government. And it has been proven by experience that to tackle the chaos of the drug market it is necessary to start with medical institutions and the logical order of the steps to be taken to carry out the policy is as follows: control of the total drug expenses, gradual control of the gross profit from drugs, extrication of medical institutions from their dependence on drugs, improvement of the management of the frug market,perfection of the "rules of game" of the market, and development of key techniques for each procedure. Evaluation of the results of the implementation of the policy indicates that the policy is scientific, rational and easy to operate and the steps are feasible.
