Abstract:
The medical services price is a key factor affecting patients'choice of medical destinations and also an important factor in attracting foreign medical consumption to return.The huge difference in medical expenses is the fundamental driving force behind the rise of international medical tourism,and the low medical costs abroad are the main driving factor for Chinese patients'outbound medical consumption.To attract foreign medical consumption back,comprehensive measures and precise efforts are needed.Through the medical service price reform,measures such as strengthening the management of imported drugs and medical devices,implementing transparency and disclosure of medical expenses,optimizing the mechanism for forming medical service prices,promoting the deepening of internal management reforms in medical institutions,and increasing supervision and support for medical prices should be taken to reduce medical service prices and promote the rationalization of domestic medical product and service prices.
