Impact of volume-based procurement on the use of original and generic oral hypoglycemic drugs in a hospital
Objective To determine the influence of volume-based procurement on the use of original and generic oral hypoglycemic drugs in a hospital,and reflect on the influence.Methods Excel software was used to summarize the drug price,defined daily dose(DDDs),defined daily cost(DDC),substitution rate and cost saving of oral hypoglycemic drugs in a hospital.Results After the implementation of volume-based procurement,the prices of both original and generic drugs fell.Among them,the unit price of original acarbose decreased 91.39％.The DDDs of original drugs decreased by 8.23％,and the total cost decreased by 85.81％.The DDDs of generic drugs increased by 825.14％,while the total cost decreased by 5.02％.The substitution rate of generic drugs increased from 2.07％to 82.61％,the total cost savings reaching 4.44 million.Conclusion The implementation of volume-based procurement not only reduces the cost of drugs and alleviates the economic burden of patients,but also greatly promotes the replacement of original drugs with generic oral hypoglycemic drugs.
