General public hospitals purchase the drugs that won the bid and the original drugs that failed to win the bid (unless the original drugs won the bid). The most puzzling thing for patients is that the original research drugs (imported drugs) that have not won the bid feel more and more "expensive", which seems to be different from the media propaganda (compared with the original research anticancer drugs that have been greatly reduced in price after being included in the medical insurance catalogue).
Take atorvastatin (Lipitor) as an example. During the "4+7" pilot period, the state has set the policy direction, and the medical insurance reimbursement will be less and less year by year. If the price is not significantly reduced by 2022, it will be almost at your own expense. The country did this because the previous reimbursement methods were not detailed enough (the more expensive, the more reimbursement), which led to the "patent cliff" that generally appeared abroad after the patent of the original drug expired (as follows). Now, with the support of the system and technology, the original drug and generic drug have been treated fairly, which promoted fair competition, and at the same time prompted manufacturers to reduce prices and patients to switch to the winning drug. In the drug list of two diseases, the payment standard of the original drug is also relatively low, such as nifedipine controlled-release tablets (Baixintong), the hospital price is 3.4 yuan, and the payment standard is 1.09 12 yuan, and the reimbursement is greatly reduced compared with before. It can be seen that it is close to the treatment of non-bid original drugs adopted by the state, and it is only a matter of time before all high-sugar chronic drugs are brought into the state (for example, several drugs such as acarbose and glimepiride in the catalogue of two diseases were included in the second batch of national drugs adopted after the publication of the "two diseases" document, and the payment standard was changed from provincial to bid).
