ABSTRACT
Objective:To study the current process and steps of government procurement in China, analyze the key factors affecting fair competition in the process of government procurement in public hospitals, and put forward feasible operational suggestions to promote fair competition in government procurement.Methods:Delphi method was used to construct the index system of the key factors affecting fair competition during the process of government procurement of public hospitals. The weight of the index system was determined by the analytic hierarchy process, and the key factors were quantitatively analyzed.Results:The index system affecting fair competition in the process of government procurement of public hospitals included 1 first-level index, 8 second-level indexes and 21 third-level indexes. Through calculation and analysis, it was concluded that the key factors affecting fair competition were feasibility study, market research, contract performance acceptance, procurement demand confirmation and project approval, with their comprehensive weights of 0.228 5, 0.144 0, 0.085 9, 0.072 9 and 0.060 4, respectively.Conclusions:We should properly expand the scope of feasibility study, fully carry out market research, reasonably set government procurement demand parameters, and strengthen contract performance acceptance and payment management, so as to promote the fair competition of government procurement in public hospitals.
