In our province, it is clear that for the drugs that have been hanging on the Internet, they must be purchased online on the drug use platform. According to clinical needs, medical institutions should actively control costs. For the same -name medicine, on the basis of reasonable medication, they are purchased in accordance with the principles of non -selected drugs after the first procurement. Guide patients with priority use of high -quality drugs. In order to strengthen supervision, the Provincial Medical Insurance Bureau Medical Drug Instrument Concentrated Procurement Center will exceed the same -purpose dosage and the same quality level of drugs and offline procurement of unsupering networks due to expert demonstrations and basic drug specifications.
