Great price reduction! Save more than 260 billion yuan! These drugs, an average drop of 53%

According to CCTV Finance and Economics, this year’s “Government Work Report” stated that it is an important task to effectively protect and improve people’s livelihood, and to promote the centralized procurement of drugs and high-value medical consumables to ensure production and supply. In recent years, the National Medical Insurance Bureau has greatly reduced drug prices through measures such as catalog access negotiation and volume purchases, striving to allow patients to use better and newer drugs. So, what is the current progress and results of mass collection? What else can you expect this year?

Zhang Shengying, 62 years old this year, was diagnosed with breast cancer in May 2015 and needs regular treatment after surgery. In May last year, Zhang Shengying found that the cancer had recurred during regular review. In December, the lung lesions increased significantly.

Fang Ying, Deputy Chief Physician, Department of Internal Medicine, Jiangsu Cancer Hospital: I finally chose Eribulin mesylate injection because the advantage of Eribulin is that it has less side effects.

With Eribulin mesylate injection, the drug cost for one treatment cycle, that is, one month, is nearly 16,000 yuan. This was a huge expense for the family, and Zhang Shengying decided to give up the treatment. But soon, the attending doctor Fang Ying brought them good news. The price of Eribulin mesylate injection was reduced after the national medical insurance negotiation, and it was officially launched on January 1, 2022.

Fang Ying, Deputy Chief Physician, Department of Internal Medicine, Jiangsu Cancer Hospital: The price of one drug has been reduced from 3,980 yuan to only 726 yuan. After reimbursement, only about 580 yuan will be paid for 4 drugs in one cycle.

From 16,000 yuan a month to 580 yuan, Zhang Shengying can continue to heal.

Li Yunqiao is a farmer in Guanyun County, Lianyungang City, Jiangsu Province. She farms the land, and her wife does odd jobs. Her family income is meager. In 2020, Li Yunqiao received two cardiac stents due to coronary heart disease, but her condition did not improve significantly. At the end of 2021, she was referred to Jiangsu Provincial People’s Hospital. The doctor believes that the most effective treatment plan for her is to carry out a cardiac drug balloon. Operation.

Li Yunqiao’s husband: Very expensive. The first two balloons cost about 50,000 yuan, and we couldn’t get them out for a while. But it didn’t take long for Li Yunqiao to usher in good news. On January 1, 2022, the procurement price of the provincial alliance of cardiac drug balloons in Jiangsu and other places with volume officially landed.

Yuan Liang, Deputy Chief Physician of the Department of Cardiovascular Medicine, Jiangsu Provincial People’s Hospital: Before there was no centralized collection last year, the drug balloon was 24,800 yuan each, but this time it was only less than 6,300 yuan, and the medical insurance reimbursed 80%, so she only needs to pay Less than 1300 yuan.

Jiangsu is the first province in the country to carry out centralized procurement of high-value medical consumables. As the head of the Jiangsu Provincial Medical Insurance Bureau, Zhou Ying has witnessed the difficulties and achievements of each centralized procurement process.

Zhou Ying, Director of Jiangsu Provincial Medical Insurance Bureau: Since July 2019, Jiangsu has carried out 6 rounds of recruitment of medical consumables, involving cardiology, neurology, orthopedics, ophthalmology and general surgery. The 6 categories involve thousands of product specifications. This time, Jiangsu took the lead, and 12 provinces carried out the centralized procurement of drug balloons.

Zhou Ying said that for each collected medical consumable product, they will follow up and monitor the clinical use, supply, and patient feedback for more than one year to ensure that good mainstream varieties are retained. .

Zhou Ying, Director of the Jiangsu Provincial Medical Insurance Bureau: We must increase our efforts to promote the admission of negotiated drugs in the last mile, especially the hospital side. This time, within a month, 164 of 174 tertiary medical institutions in Jiangsu have held special pharmaceutical affairs conferences, and established a procurement mechanism for clinical needs such as Guotan Drugs to promote hospitals and the public to use them. A life-saving medicine.

While patients get benefits, it also means that companies have to digest cost pressures. In the interview, the person in charge of a balloon manufacturer admitted that there is indeed operational pressure in the short term, but in the future, they will invest more resources and energy into technological innovation and product development, and use innovation to seek development.

Zhuang Long, relevant person in charge of a drug balloon company: Procurement with volume is also a very good way to significantly shorten the time for market access. It fully reflects the situation of exchanging quantity for price, helpingOur company has shortened the payment period and improved the operating efficiency of the entire company.

In recent years, the state has put a lot of effort into alleviating the problem of “difficult and expensive medical treatment” for the common people. 6 batches of nationally organized drugs were purchased in a centralized manner, and a total of 234 drugs were purchased, with an average decrease of 53%. Among them, the average decrease of cardiac stents was 93%, and the average decrease of artificial hip joints and knee joints was 82%. Elevated space. Over the past three years, the accumulative cost savings has exceeded 260 billion yuan. The adjustment of the national medical insurance drug list has been carried out for four consecutive years, and a total of 507 new and good drugs have been included. It is expected that this year, the cumulative burden on patients will be reduced by more than 30 billion yuan. In this year’s “Government Work Report”, the per capita financial subsidy standard for resident medical insurance, which is closely related to everyone, has been raised by another 30 yuan, from 280 yuan in 2013 to 610 yuan in 10 years. How can healthcare improve? On the one hand, it is necessary to continue to reduce the prices of medicines and consumables, so that patients can use and afford good life-saving medicines. On the other hand, it is necessary to focus on hierarchical diagnosis and treatment, so that high-quality medical resources continue to sink, so that patients can see and see good diseases at the door of their homes. It is believed that these policy red envelopes full of benefits will allow more people to enjoy more high-quality and efficient health services.
