From the centralized procurement of the first batch of cardiac coronary stents in 2020 to the artificial joints in 2021 and orthopedic spine consumables in 2022, in more than 3 years, China has carried out four batches of national high-value medical consumables centralized procurement. What are the new features of this high-value medical consumables centralized procurement?Four batches of high-value medical consumables have been purchased, can enterprises and people benefit from it and ensure quality and quantity?"News 1+1" connected Gao Xue, deputy director of the Joint Procurement Office of High-value Medical Consumables of the National Organization, to pay attention to the fourth batch of high-value medical consumables
The fourth batch of high-value medical consumables are centrally purchased, why choose intraocular lenses and sports medicine consumables?
Gao Xue, deputy director of the Joint Procurement Office of High-value Medical Consumables organized by the state: We choose high-value medical consumables to be purchased in a centralized manner, mainly to select products with large consumption, high amount, and demand from the masses. For example, the base of cataract patients is relatively large, and the demand is also very large, so we will include intraocular lenses in the scope of the fourth batch of volume procurement. In addition, sports medicine consumables themselves belong to a high-speed development of products, which is also a category in orthopedics. This time, we are also in line with the purpose of filling the gap of orthopedic centralized procurement, and covering all orthopedic consumables through centralized procurement, so sports medicine products are also included in the fourth batch of centralized procurement.
After the consumables are reduced, is the enthusiasm of the enterprise still high?
Gao Xue, deputy director of the Joint Procurement Office of High-value Medical Consumables of the National Organization: Judging from the current situation, enterprises are actually very active in cooperating with centralized procurement. After the centralized volume procurement, the sales volume and amount of many enterprises are steadily increasing. So judging from the data, they continue to support recruitment. Moreover, through the recruitment of "one product and one policy", they can also slowly see the changes in policy trends and contract volume, and we are also helping them to ensure the performance and implementation of contracts. Including our collection policy, it is very attractive for them.
After the centralized procurement of consumables, how to ensure product quality for a long time?
Gao Xue, deputy director of the Joint Procurement Office of High-value Medical Consumables organized by the state: After the centralized procurement, we will continue to carry out quality monitoring, and the drug regulatory management department will conduct random inspections to ensure that the quality of the selected products is no problem. In addition, the sampling work will also be carried out for a long time, not to say that the one-time sampling inspection will be completed after winning the bid, we will continue to monitor it, if there is a problem, we also have the strictest means of supervision.
What categories will be included in the centralized procurement of high-value medical consumables in the future?
Gao Xue, deputy director of the joint procurement office of high-value medical consumables organized by the state: In the future, there are still more product knowledge that we need to learn and Xi, and on the basis of continuous learning and Xi, we will also incorporate other unrecruited products, such as interventional, circulatory or surgical products, into our ideas and scope of procurement, which can also benefit the people more.
