ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To provide reference for the subsequent landing of national medical insurance negotiated drugs （referred to as “national negotiated drugs”） at the provincial level. METHODS By reviewing the data publicly released by the official websites of National Healthcare Security Administration and the Healthcare Security Administration of Zhejiang Province， combined with policy documents， the descriptive analysis was conducted on the number of tertiary medical institutions， the actual allocation of national negotiated drugs， the availability rate of national negotiated drugs， the allocation rate of national negotiated drug varieties， and the allocation rate of medical institutions of various cities in Zhejiang province. The Spearman rank correlation test was used to analyze the correlation between the number of types of national negotiated drugs equipped in tertiary medical institutions in Zhejiang province and the per capita disposable income， the number of tertiary medical institutions equipped with national negotiated drugs， and the implementation time of disease diagnosis-related grouping （DRG） of various cities in Zhejiang province. RESULTS As of the first quarter of 2022， 135 tertiary medical institutions in Zhejiang province were equipped with a total of 261 types of national negotiated drugs， accounting for 94.91% of the 2021 edition of the National Negotiated Drugs Catalogue （275 types）. The allocation rates of Goserelin acetate sustained-release implant， Sacubitril valsartan sodium tablets， Alteplase for injection and other varieties were at high level， and the types of national negotiated drugs equipped were highly coincident with the top 10 causes of death with disease of urban and rural residents in Zhejiang province. The tertiary medical institutions in Hangzhou had the most types of national negotiated drugs， with 230 types， while Quzhou had the lowest， with only 34 types； allocation rate of national negotiated drugs in medical institutions of Zhoushan was the highest （100%）， while that of Lishui was the lowest （57.14%）. The types of national negotiated drugs equipped were positively correlated with per capita disposable income in various cities and the number of tertiary medical institutions equipped with national negotiated drugs （P＜0.01）， and there was no significant correlation with the length of implementation of DRG （P＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS mail：lanyao@mails.tjmu.edu.cn The landing of national negotiated drugs in Zhejiang province is generally good， with a high rate of equipping tertiary medical institutions with national negotiated drugs and a high rate of equipping drug varieties. Therefore， it is recommended that the provincial implementation of national negotiated drugs should be multi-faceted， and policy-making departments should adopt a dual-channel of “unbundling” and “driving” to smooth the drug chain into hospitals. The health insurance sector should improve the “dual channel” management mechanism to share the pressure on hospitals to use drugs. At the same time， it should also improve the multi-level medical security system and raise the level of reimbursement of medical insurance for national negotiated drugs.
