Yesterday, reporters randomly visited 10 pharmacies and clinics in downtown yichang, comparing the prices of eight conventional medicines, and some pharmacies were more expensive than hospitals, and the difference between them was 20 yuan.
Drugstore owners say the drugstore's original price advantage is no longer after the drug has gone to zero, and the pharmacy has said goodbye to the era of the only drug available. Pharmacies want to survive and have to change their current business model. In the future, pharmacies must shift from selling drugs to selling services.
▍ contrast: pharmacy 8 kinds of medicine only one is much cheaper than the hospital
Reporters visited nearly 10 pharmacies and clinics and compared the prices of eight of them with those of public hospitals.
At a drugstore in wujiggang, the reporter said to buy a box for the treatment of acute chronic pharyngitis. The shop assistant recommended a five-hundred-six-pack of 100-stamen granules to reporters, which sold for 50.4 yuan, six cents less than the price of a public hospital.
The reporter then went to the central south road community health service station to buy the same size of a hundred stamen grain, the price is 56.8 yuan. "How can this hundred stamen particles be more expensive than hospitals?" The reporter questioned. The staff explained that "we have always been the price, and now the hospital has cancelled the drug addition, so it appears that our medicine is more expensive." The reporter went back to the drugstore (victory no. 3) and yifeng pharmacy (zhaojun garden store), and did not find these two drugs.
The reporter also compared the "tijia", which has a size of 25 mg / 20 / box. The price of a public hospital is 65.12 yuan/box, while the price of visiting drugstores and clinics is between 62.50 yuan/box and 72.00 yuan/box. The 10mg x 7 / box specification is "fixed", with the price of public hospitals at 49.25 yuan/box, each pharmacy and clinic selling for between 54.00 yuan/box and 60.50 yuan/box.
Of the eight drugs, the rest of the seven drugs, with the exception of "baby aminophenol xanamine," are more expensive than public hospitals.

The drugstore's medicine is divided into two categories, one is the government's drug price and the other is the drug of market regulation, said mo jiang wen, chief of pharmacy department of yichang city center hospital. Citizens such as common "but" "Kang Puli star" belong to market regulation, such as drugs, price and supply channels, store location, rents have relationship, as long as plain code marks a price, there is no violation of provisions.
"Most of the drugs in public hospitals are procured by government procurement platforms. There are more than eight hundred and eight hundred kinds of medicines, each of which has two different specifications." 'it's normal to take drugs that are purchased in a unified way cheaper than those that are regulated by the market,' Mr. Mojiang said.
▍ public hospital drugs zero bonus, will bring what impact to retail pharmacies?
"The zero-plus policy would compress the profit margins of drugstores and clinics into very small and small." , said ms wu family duty a clinic director song, such as the specification of 10 mg * 6 / box pu blue oral liquid, clinic the purchase price of $27, sells for $43, "public hospital price only 23 yuan many, I can't be lower than the purchase price for sale."
, said an official with the interview, many pharmacy drug after zero bonus policies, the cost of public hospital drug prices and pharmacy drug prices will be same, sometimes even lower, stopped retail pharmacies original price advantage.
"If the pharmacy doesn't go down any day, I might consider hanging out or joining a big chain of drugstores," said one drugstore executive who asked not to be named.
