Medical network - on January 13, not long ago, the ministry of commerce issued the national medicine circulation industry development planning (2016-2020) "(hereinafter referred to as the" plan "). The "planning" of the specific goal is to form a group network covering the whole country, intensive and informationization level higher large medicine circulation enterprises. Pharmaceutical wholesale enterprises with annual sales accounted for more than 90% of the total pharmaceutical wholesale market; Pharmaceutical retail enterprises with annual sales accounted for over 40% of the total amount of medicine retail market; Rate of drug retail chain of more than 50%.
"Plan" put forward reasonable planning industry layout, improve the drug circulation network, promoted circulation management level, build modern medicine suppliers, business model innovation industry, expand the service functions, and "introducing" open "going out", promote the combination of industry level, strengthen infrastructure construction, improve industry service ability and so on five major tasks.
To achieve these goals, we need national various support and guide policy, also need to unswervingly promote national health policy. For the current regional scale drug firms, this is a pattern innovation, deep market, expanding the size of the stage; For the broad masses of small and medium-sized pharmaceutical companies, requires the resource to support, have the courage to change, and learn to make the best of everything and grow, or is likely to withdraw from the market.
Predictably, the planning of the next four years, absolute number of commercial and retail pharmacy medicine will significantly reduced, small and medium-sized pharmaceutical companies will face a big test of survival.
Diversified logistics center functions
Planning is put forward, to "build in urban and rural circulation network" "green medicine to develop modern logistics", this means that in working to improve business top top drug firms, and retail chain pharmacy market share proportion of the premise, must support with social service function of three-way drug logistics center construction; Must also hold concurrently at the same time this kind of logistics center, financial financing, logistics, e-commerce focused cold-chain management, coordination and distribution, and other functions.
At present, due to the third party logistics of our country, there is no national level drug standard, the provinces for drugs with different third party logistics, therefore, in the planning of the ministry of commerce in order to achieve the above goal requires the relevant ministries and commissions of the positive synergy and national industry association, three party logistics standards and produce drugs designated national pilot enterprises, believe that during the period of "much starker choices-and graver consequences-in" will make a difference. At the same time, combining with the ministry of commerce to participate in the work we promote the establishment of the domestic Chinese modern logistics system, the establishment of the modern logistics system and traditional Chinese medicinal materials traceability system will be the key work during the period of "much starker choices-and graver consequences-in". Earlier, focus on the pharmaceutical logistics automation integrated flux of Shanghai information technology co., LTD., a national research concluded that to build a drug of large pharmaceutical logistics center function of third party logistics, logistics software and hardware equipment to ensure them only at least investment more than 15 million yuan.
This for the small and medium-sized pharmaceutical companies, or to take an active part in the work, increase investment, leading the industry development, or can only be part of the other drug firms scale circulation system, this is a difficult choice.
Pharmacy face mixed management
Also want to see at the same time, the ministry of commerce clearly put forward "to promote Internet + medicine circulation, innovative retail service mode". Specifically, is to support drug distribution enterprises and medical institutions and health care department, e-commerce enterprises to carry out the medical electrical business services, provide patients with over-the-counter "net book (medicine) store take" "net book (medicine) shop" and convenient services, promote the development of online fusion. In advancing the retail pharmacy information system and information system of medical institutions and medical insurance payment system docking process, encourage qualified retail pharmacies to undertake outpatient pharmacy service of medical institutions and other professional services; Support the development of professional pharmacy, medicine (beauty) makeup shop, "pharmacy + clinic", the doctor of traditional Chinese medicine (national physician).
Predictably, the clinic pharmacy, professional will be more and more national physician pavilions, pharmacies will be developed into place with functions of preliminary diagnosis and treatment of health. In other words, if retail pharmacies can't adapt to mixed management, implement the "comprehensive" big health, small business model, so can only face to exit the city or be eliminated. Combining research after the medicines of third party logistics alliance, the domestic most of the small drugstore chain drug firms and monomer, is unable to realize the transformation, only facing mergers and acquisitions or natural exit.
It should be pointed out that, "prescription drug drain" is not in "much starker choices-and graver consequences-in" medicine circulation development plan of the ministry of commerce.
At the same time, the program also proposed "to establish the drug circulation encoding rules or electronic data interaction specification, gradually achieve drug effective circulation and full traceability". Predictably, the ministry of commerce will cooperate with related departments to relevant industry standards and policies, to take specific information guide medicine circulation industry programming operation, many nonstandard management of small business to further increase the law risk. And "making retail pharmacies classification management system, to carry out the retail pharmacy management service capability classification evaluation", means that the monomer pharmacies and small chain drug firms living space will be greatly compressed.
