Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To systemically sort out the main practices of local drug online procurement， so as to provide reference for national and local governments to improve drug online procurement policies and drug price formation mechanism. METHODS By searching the official websites of 31 provincial medical security bureaus and drug-centralized procurement platforms in China， the classification methods and main goals of local drug online procurement were summarized， then the main practices of local drug online procurement were analyzed based on the main goals， and corresponding suggestion was put forward. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS There were two classification methods of online drug procurement in each province， one is based on online or purchase methods， and the other is based on drug dimensions. Five main objectives of online drug procurement in each province are to ensure reasonable drug prices， meet clinical drug demand， ensure stable drug supply， cooperate with the implementation of drug policies， and standardize the behavior of transaction subjects. In order to achieve the five goals， each province has taken some targeted measures， but the severity of the policy varies greatly. In order to further improve the online drug procurement policy and improve the market-oriented online drug price formation mechanism， it is suggested to build the top-level design of online drug procurement， strengthen the management of the price comparison relationship of similar drugs， give full play to the monitoring function of the drug-centralized procurement platform and establish a national unified drug-centralized procurement platform.
