industry trends p align = "center" Shandong completes the centralized collection of covid-19 virus antigen detection reagents
Recently, Shandong public resources trading center (hereinafter referred to as the center) organized and completed the special centralized procurement of covid-19 virus antigen detection reagents. The final five enterprises were selected, and the price of each reagent was reduced from the market average price of more than 30 yuan to less than 9 yuan, with an average decrease of about 74.7%. Among them, the lowest winning price is only 7.9 yuan and the highest winning price is 9 yuan, which are the lowest prices in China.
It is understood that after the State Food and Drug Administration approved the listing of covid-19 antigen self-test products, the center acted quickly and contacted the approved manufacturers on the same day to find out the market price and supply capacity of the products. On March 15, Shandong Medical Security Bureau issued the implementation plan for special centralized procurement of covid-19 virus antigen detection reagents. The center immediately issued a procurement notice announcement on the website. On March 16, the enterprise was officially organized to declare, and the winning result was produced according to the enterprise's quotation.
With the goal of reducing prices and ensuring supply, this centralized procurement activity simplifies the process, improves efficiency, and adopts a variety of comprehensive measures such as multiple selection, price limit guidance and price dynamic linkage, so as to guide the price reduction through moderate competition, promote the reasonable return of prices and avoid vicious competition. At the same time, it is required that during the procurement cycle, if the winning enterprise purchases intensively in other provinces and produces a new and lower winning price, the winning enterprise shall actively apply for low linkage to ensure that the product price maintains the lowest price level in the country.
At present, the selected products have been linked to the network on the centralized platform of pharmaceutical machinery in Shandong Province, and medical and health departments at all levels will be able to purchase online. This will provide strong support for covid-19 epidemic prevention and control in Shandong Province. (Liu Xiaoying)
