Hospitals default in tens of billions – the department of commerce starts to intervene

January 31st, 2017 | by

A while ago, the department of Commerce in Hunan sent letters to the health reform office in Hunan and informed them that several hospitals in Hunan have stopped the payments for drugs for three months because “the drug operation cost and drug management fee were not embodied in hospitals”. Recently, the pharmaceutical distribution industry association Hunan showed that since the beginning of 2016, 20 public hospitals have defaulted on the drug payment in more than 10 billion yuan. To maintain the normal supply, some pharmaceutical manufacturers have to take out loans from non-government institutions with high interest rates. The loss from it can be 200 thousand yuan per month.

核心提示:前段时间,湖南省商务厅给湖南省医改办发函,称湖南几家大医院以“医院药品运营成本和药事管理费用无处体现”为由,已经连续三个月停止支付药品货款。近日,湖南省药品流通行业协会表示,2016年初至今,仅湖南湘雅医院、湖南省人民医院、湖南省儿童医院等20家公立医院就拖欠了长沙40余家药商超过100亿元的药品货款。为了维持药品的正常供应,甚至有部分药商只好高利率向民间机构借贷,仅此一块的损失每月就高达20万元。
