Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To facilitate the implementation of Prescription Administrative Policy ( "Policy" for short), and provide basis for Medical Administrative Departments to perfect prescription management. METHODS: 218 questionnaires collected from medical staffs in 14 primary level hospitals were subjected to an aggregate analysis in respect of their cognition on the "Policy" , prescription standards and the enforcement condition of the "Policy" . RESULTS: Of the 218 medical staff, 36.7% had the knowledge on prescription standards in "Policy" , 35.78% had the knowledge of generic names of the prescribed medicines. Among the 14 primary level medical institutions, only 36.36% used the standard emergency prescriptions and paediatric prescriptions, and 47.76% kept samples of doctors' signatures. CONCLUSIONS: The "Policy" was poorly implemented in the primary level medical institution. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the education and training of the medical staff, meanwhile the Medical Administrative Departments should strengthen their administrative leadership and guidance, and put forward the relevant policy and bylaws aimed at the confusions existing with the medical institutes so as to facilitate a better implementation of the Policy.
