Core Viewpoint - The commercial health insurance sector is becoming an essential part of China's multi-tiered medical security system, with the commercial insurance directory emerging as a key lever for high-quality development [1][2]. Group 1: Commercial Health Insurance Development - The commercial health insurance market is experiencing robust growth, with a continuous expansion of business scale and service capabilities, providing diversified health protection for the public [1]. - As of the end of 2024, the sales scale of China's innovative drug market is expected to reach 162 billion yuan, with commercial health insurance accounting for only 7.7% of the payment, highlighting the need for increased commercial insurance involvement [2][3]. - The total health payment market is projected to exceed 1 trillion yuan in 2024, with health insurance premiums reaching 977.3 billion yuan, emphasizing the urgency to develop commercial health insurance [2]. Group 2: Challenges and Opportunities - The high personal payment ratio and low commercial insurance payment ratio indicate that commercial health insurance is a viable path to reduce personal payment burdens [3]. - The development of innovative drugs is significantly dependent on the support of diversified payment from commercial insurance, as current payment structures limit the use of innovative drugs in hospitals [3][4]. - The establishment of a comprehensive commercial insurance directory is crucial for addressing the payment challenges of innovative drugs and ensuring that commercial insurance complements basic medical insurance [3][4]. Group 3: Directory Construction and Implementation - The proposed commercial insurance directory could be categorized into three classes: Class A (fully reimbursed by basic insurance), Class B (partially reimbursed), and Class C (not reimbursed) [4]. - The integration of commercial insurance and pharmaceutical companies is essential, as current discrepancies in the directory lead to resource misallocation [6]. - A unified platform for information sharing between basic medical insurance and commercial insurance is recommended to reduce patient out-of-pocket expenses and improve data accuracy [6][7]. Group 4: Regulatory and Regional Considerations - The rapid development of commercial insurance payment practices faces challenges such as data security and regional disparities in drug pricing and insurance product competitiveness [7]. - Regulatory bodies are adopting differentiated strategies to manage these issues, allowing for innovation in developed regions while maintaining caution in less developed areas [7].
