Abstract:
Objective:To understand the status of medical science and technology achievement transformation policies in application, this study conducted a descriptive statistical analysis of the collected relevant policy texts according to type, time, and publication sector. On this basis, the X-Y two-dimensional analysis framework of policy texts is constructed using the dual dimensions of Howlett and Ramesh′s policy tool classification and policy development to classify policies into 3 categories: mandatory tools, voluntary tools, and hybrid tools, and to quantify the policy texts on the transformation of medical science and technology achievements, analyze the policy support received in the transformation of medical science and technology achievements and the policy obstacles in the transformation of achievements in China. Finally, this study was aiming to propose targeted countermeasure suggestions.Methods:The texts of medical achievement transformation policies were collected through the official websites of the State Council and the Ministry of Science and Technology, and combined with relevant literature. Research methods such as literature research method and quantitative and qualitative analysis method were applied to conduct the study. The policy samples were coded and organized, and two-dimensional analysis was conducted through the constructed X-Y two-dimensional analysis framework. The texts were quantitatively analyzed through a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods.Results:The results of the analysis of the coded data revealed that the current mandatory tools of China′s medical science and technology achievement transformation policy account for a relatively high proportion, and the use of voluntary tools still needed to be further improved. The use of various policy tools was uneven. The internal structure of various policy tools was also uneven, and there was still room for improvement.Conclusions:Through qualitative and quantitative analysis of the results of the application of medical science and technology achievement transformation policy in China, this paper puts forward 3 countermeasure suggestions: firstly, in the stage of policy strengthening and implementation, the implementation path and scheme of policy tools need to be refined so that the policy can realize implementation. Secondly, the balanced development of various policy tools, the coordination of policy formulation and implementation, the balanced role of mandatory tools, hybrid tools and voluntary tools, and the establishment of a smooth policy system for the transformation of medical science and technology results on this basis to improve the effectiveness of the policy. Thirdly, improve the internal orientation and evaluation mechanism of medical institutions to motivate medical institutions and medical personnel to carry out scientific and technological innovation and transformation work.
