The author’s first reaction to the relevant content at the time was that these three years will be the key three years for the development of centralized drug procurement: in 2019, local mass procurement has not yet taken shape, 2020 is still in the initial stage of exploration, and 2022 is the end of the year.
2021 is the main year for the national drug procurement to land in succession
.
Facts have proved that so far, the understanding is still basically accurate

In the group procurement documents, the review method particularly emphasizes the requirements for classification review, namely:

.
Proprietary Chinese medicines are reviewed according to the classification of functions and indications and the route of administration
.

.
to sum up
to sum upIn general, from Fujian in 2017 to Jilin, Shanghai and Guangdong in 2021, in-depth exploration of the combined procurement of different generic drugs with similar indications or functions and indications has become a fact that pharmaceutical and industrial enterprises have to face
.
Under the new situation, the overall idea of mass procurement is to make every effort to promote competition, ensure quality and supply, create a fair competitive market environment, guide the transformation of enterprise competition into product quality and cost competition, and promote the healthy development of enterprises
.
For enterprises, only by improving quality, increasing revenue and reducing expenditure, strictly controlling costs, and improving operations can they calmly embrace the new era of centralized drug procurement
