The Health and Welfare Commission slashed its hands and demanded that the consumable companies be permanently blacklisted!

Medical Network March 12th News Winter is about to pass, but the cold wind is still hazy - In the new round of supplies bargaining procurement supplies the bargaining results came out, the Liaoning Provincial Health and Development Commission issued a serious warning, so that consumables companies feel bursts of chill!

Liaoning Province is currently conducting bargaining procurement of medical consumables. According to the previous work arrangement, all medical institutions in the province must implement new bargaining results from April 1, 2018. This round of bargaining results is, in principle, valid for one year.

In this round of negotiations, Liaoning Province included both high-value medical supplies and general medical consumables, including: vascular intervention, electrophysiology, cardiac pacemakers, ophthalmology, neurointervention, non-vascular intervention, and in vitro Circulation and Hemodialysis, General Consumables, Orthopaedics, Structural Heart Disease, Oral, Artificial Organ Tissue, Neurosurgery, Stapling & Patellar Repair, Nursing, Blood Station Consumables, Anesthesia Supplies, Sterilization Consumables, commonly used consumables in the operating room, medical X-ray accessories and components, cardiothoracic surgical supplies, otorhinolaryngology supplies, consumables for rehabilitation materials, and other peripheral medical supplies.

Immediately after the bargaining results for this round of consumables were released and on the eve of the implementation, on March 9, 2018, the Liaoning Provincial Bidding Office issued the “Notice on Further Completing Bargaining Work for Medical Consumables” (hereinafter referred to as the “Notice”) to participate in the province. The production of consumables for bargaining, the operating company issued a serious warning.

The “Notice” stated that for consumables companies to stop supplying suppliers for medical institutions, they would not allow medical institutions to conduct online price reporting and other activities that disrupt the procurement order of medical consumables in Liaoning Province, and directly include relevant enterprises in Liaoning Province. medicine 2. Purchase and sale of blacklists will not allow permanent participation in consumables procurement and distribution activities in Liaoning Province.

According to the “Notice”, the procurement of sunlight for general medical consumables in Liaoning province is still at an exploratory stage. There is no price limit for linked products, and no simultaneous implementation of the same price in the same city. The prices of the same product are allowed to vary among medical institutions. Institutions and enterprise The new agreed price is not allowed to exceed the original purchase price.

If the consumables company finds that the purchase price of the consignment companies will increase by the purchase price of the sunlight, the relevant companies will be included in the bad records of the integrity of the purchase and sale of pharmaceuticals in Liaoning Province, and they will not be allowed to participate in the consumable procurement and distribution activities in Liaoning Province within 2 years.

As we all know, Liaoning Province has joined the Shaanxi-led consumptive supplies procurement alliance. The “Notice” addresses the province’s bargaining work for high-value orthopaedic consumables, and specifically states that Shaanxi Province will conduct ore product pricing in July and November 2017. Adjustments, and the collection of Liaoning Province's product library for Shaanxi Province's prices ended in May 2017.

Orthopaedic consumables companies must provide the medical institutions with the latest price limit of Shaanxi Province when negotiating prices. If it is found that the agreed price is higher than the latest price limit in Shaanxi Province, the relevant product's eligibility for the embargo will be cancelled.

The "Notice" also emphasized that all municipalities and medical institutions can jointly negotiate prices, especially the bargaining work carried out in the form of medical associations and medical communities. Relevant consumables companies may not refuse for any reason.

That is, for cross-regional medical organizations, cross-regional and bargaining with greater price reductions, companies can only accept, can not refuse, if they do not accept to be eliminated.

The background of the above-mentioned 'four major warnings' was issued, and the 'Notice' stated that it was 'for new situations and new issues arising in the process of bargaining, in order to ensure the smooth and orderly conduct of bargaining work and to address the issues of concentration'.

It is inferred that some of the problems from the medical consumables business community that do not cooperate with the bargaining price may have appeared in Liaoning Province's round of bargaining work, or it has emerged.

The attitude of the Liaoning Provincial Health and Family Planning Commission is not to compromise. If it is severely punished, even a serious “non-cooperative” company is required to create a permanent “blacklist”. This warning and punishment measure is also rare in the procurement of consumables. Once a company loses money, it will be extremely heavy.

Coincidentally.

Recently, Heilongjiang Province has also failed to comply with the bargaining rules of consumables companies and disrupted the order of consumables purchase and sales. The province issued a warning that high-value consumables companies can supply goods at below-the-net-price but do not accept online bargaining, or arbitrarily If the supply price is increased, the product will be canceled for one year and the serious case will be included in the list of bad records.

In more parts of the country, many medical institutions have already or are currently conducting another form of 'bargaining work' through the 'Dongfeng' that has been specifically rectified by medical consumables.

For example, a three-in-one compound in Hainan hospital All re-combine with the price of consumables, where the previous purchase price is higher than the provincial price, they are all 'secondary bargaining', and re-negotiate a price that is not higher than the linked price as the new purchase price.

For another example, a three-acre compound in Henan Province issued a notice that all hospitals are negotiating with consumables. The new price must be reduced by more than 10% from the original purchase price.

Medical supplies Bidding Purchase is not as good drug Bidding and procurement are relatively standardized and can be said to be more extensive. With the deepening of medical reform, consignment bidding and procurement has become a new focus, and is undergoing major changes. While companies are under pressure to reduce prices, they are also facing a more stringent regulatory environment.

The special rectification of consumables is an important signal. It is also an inflection point. Some of the old ways of avoiding bidding, avoiding bargaining, and not following the rules carefully have also been difficult to get through.

Studying the rules, understanding the rules, following the rules... Compliance, and not losing the market, have become an inevitable choice for everyone in the industry.
