Influence of national volume-based procurement policy on the economy and use structure of anti-infective drugs in a hospital
Objective To investigate the influence of the national volume-based procurement(NVBP)policy on the economy and use structure of anti-infective drugs in a general 3-A hospital,and to provide a reference for the standardization of clinical application management and policy implementation.Methods The price,defined daily doses(DDDs),average defined daily cost(DDDc),actual cost saving,substitution rate of selected drugs(SRSD)and avoidance rate of alternative drugs(ARAD)of anti-infective drugs before and after the implementation of 1-7 collection NVBP policy were analysed.Results The NVBP policy led to a>70%reduction in the price of 70.73%of the hospital's target drugs,69.70%of the DDDs increased,81.82%of the DDDc decreased and 63.64%showed the relationship of"volume increase and price decrease".The average SRSD was 84.49%in the first cycle and 95.94%in the second cycle.The average actual cost saving in the first cycle was 474 100 yuan,with an average saving rate of 407.60%,and in the second cycle was 803 100 yuan,with an average saving rate of 1 257.04%,showing an increasing trend year by year.The consumption of alternative drugs increased by 53.85%in the first cycle and 66.67%in the second cycle,with the highest annual increase of 555.63%,and the average of 74.65%.Conclusion After the implementation of NVBP policy,selected drugs mainly replaced unselected drugs,and the cost of anti-infection treatment was greatly reduced.However,it was necessary to strengthen the control of alternative drugs,standardize the management of clinical application,carry out clinical comprehensive evaluation of selected drugs and real world research.
