Practice and suggestions for the reform of drug and medical service separation reform and drug zero-profit policy in Wuhu / 中华医院管理杂志

ABSTRACT

The drug and medical consumables management center in Wuhu features the operational mechanism separating the decision-making power of drug purchasing,the executive power and the supervision power.This practice terminates the interest chain previously found between medicine suppliers with hospitals,pharmacies and doctors,creating the Wuhu Model of drug and medical service separation at public hospitals.The drug zero-profit policy reshapes the drug supply system and the existing compensation mechanism of public hospitals,further defining the Wuhu Model.This model is paving the way for the same reform to be carried out nationwide.
