Core Viewpoint - The upcoming revision of the medical price and procurement credit evaluation system aims to strictly address bribery in drug sales that leads to inflated drug prices, encouraging companies to reduce prices and correct dishonest behaviors [1][6]. Group 1: Background and Purpose - The credit evaluation system was established to combat high drug prices caused by commercial bribery, kickbacks, and monopolistic practices, which have led to rapid increases in medical costs and significant losses to medical insurance funds [2][3]. - The system integrates mechanisms for credit commitment, rating, graded disposal, and credit restoration based on procurement contracts in the pharmaceutical sector [2]. Group 2: Implementation and Effectiveness - Over the past five years, the National Medical Insurance Administration has regularly reported on dishonest behaviors and published ratings of severely dishonest companies, enhancing social supervision [3][4]. - As of the end of 2024, there are 735 existing dishonest companies, including 7 classified as "particularly serious" and 40 as "serious," indicating a need for continued enforcement [3][4]. Group 3: Upcoming Revisions - The revised system will adjust the rating categories from four to three, lowering the threshold for "particularly serious" dishonesty to cases involving bribes of 500,000 yuan [5][6]. - Enhanced inter-departmental collaboration will incorporate findings from auditing departments into the evaluation process, and stricter penalties will be applied to companies involved in bribery and collusion during centralized procurement [6].
