    Collective procurement and medical insurance negotiations have taken turns, and retail pharmacies may become a new battlefield
     
    Driven by a series of policies, the pace of inclusion of proprietary Chinese medicines in the national medical insurance catalogue and centralized procurement has continued to accelerate
    in recent years.
     
    A few days ago, the National Medical Insurance Administration issued an announcement that the negotiation of national medical insurance in 2022 is like an arrow
    .
    From the list published so far, a total of 343 drugs have passed the formal examination, of which 50 are proprietary Chinese medicines (15 outside the catalogue and 35 in the catalogue), except for Yixin ketone drop pills, the rest are exclusive varieties (including exclusive dosage forms).

     
    According to the application conditions passed, among the 15 non-catalogue proprietary Chinese medicines, except for Shixin lozenge, Tangcao tablets and Yixin ketone drop pills, the remaining 12 varieties are all new generic drugs approved for marketing by the national drug regulatory department between January 1, 2017 and June 30, 2022; Among the 35 proprietary Chinese medicines in the catalogue, 4 passed the review with condition 2, that is, negotiated drugs and other drugs
    in the catalogue that have undergone significant changes in indications or functional indications approved by the national drug regulatory department between January 1, 2017 and June 30, 2022.
    (Including the application for drug renewal in 2022 to adjust the scope of medical insurance payment).

     
    Through the dynamic adjustment of the medical insurance catalogue, more innovative proprietary Chinese medicines will enter the medical insurance catalogue
    .
    With the support of the "dual channel" policy, these innovative Chinese medicines included in medical insurance are also expected to be scaled up
    in retail pharmacies.
     
    In terms of centralized procurement of proprietary Chinese medicines, the collective procurement of proprietary Chinese medicines in 19 provinces in Hubei and the centralized procurement of proprietary Chinese medicines in 6 provinces in Guangdong have been settled
    .
    On September 9, the National Joint Procurement Office of Proprietary Chinese Medicines was officially established, and the "Procurement Announcement of the National Alliance of Proprietary Chinese Medicines" was issued, and 30 provinces and municipalities participated in the collective procurement of the alliance of proprietary Chinese medicines, including a total of 42 products
    in 16 categories.
     
    Some industry views believe that due to the large number of participating provinces, the centralized procurement of proprietary Chinese medicines led by Hubei can basically be regarded as the national centralized procurement of proprietary Chinese medicines, which is an important step
    in the normalization of centralized procurement of proprietary Chinese medicines.
     
    With the continuous advancement of centralized procurement of proprietary Chinese medicines, proprietary Chinese medicines will face more uncertainty in public medical institutions, and retail pharmacies are expected to become a new battlefield
