The "largest scale" centralized procurement has come to an end, and traditional Chinese medicine enterprises will face a major "reshuffle"?
Recently, the results of the nationwide traditional Chinese patent medicines and simple preparations collection, which is known as "the largest in history", has relatively complex rules and takes a long time, have been released recently, with an average price reduction of 49%. The overall price reduction is in line with expectations and relatively moderate, lower than the average reduction of 56% in the previous eight batches of nationwide drug procurement.
It is reported that this is also the first time in China that traditional Chinese medicine has been collected in a centralized manner. The selected products have complete specifications and involve 6 treatment fields such as internal medicine and ophthalmology. Based on the winning results of the centralized procurement, a total of 63 enterprises and 68 representative products were selected, with a winning rate of 71.6%; The average decrease is 49.36%, and it is expected to save over 4.5 billion yuan in drug costs annually.
For traditional Chinese medicine enterprises, centralized procurement of traditional Chinese medicine can achieve economies of scale and bargaining advantages through unified procurement and bargaining, thereby reducing the procurement costs and sales prices of traditional Chinese medicine. On the other hand, due to limitations in scale and competitiveness, small and medium-sized enterprises may find it difficult to compete with large enterprises, leading to a risk of reduced market share.
It is worth mentioning that this volume based procurement not only looks at the price reduction, but also scores the technical evaluation of pharmaceutical companies to generate shortlisted companies. Among them, the price competition score accounts for 60%, and the technical evaluation score accounts for 40%. This centralized procurement of traditional Chinese medicine is like a "big wave washing away sand" for the market. The market will experience a transformation, and enterprises need to continuously improve their competitiveness and adapt to market demand. At the same time, it also provides more choices and opportunities for buyers, promoting the survival and development of the market.

More than 20% of Korean netizens support collecting single person tax
According to the Global Times, a latest survey report from South Korea shows that 21% of Koreans support the imposition of a "single person tax". On the 2nd, South Korea's Chosun Ilbo reported that due to low birth rates, South Korean officials had previously proposed taxing single individuals, which has been strongly criticized and opposed. Many Korean netizens believe that this idea is "too absurd". However, the proportion of Koreans who hope the government will consider levying a "single person tax" is increasing recently.
According to the report, a local online survey platform conducted a survey at the end of June targeting 4015 people aged 20 to 50. The results show that 21% of people support the introduction of "single person tax" or "beauty tax". Among them, respondents in their 50s had the highest approval rate, at 26%; The approval rate among respondents in their thirties is 16%.
A respondent who praised the "single tax" said, "Of course, we need to pay a single tax in order for the country to survive. We should support couples with only children and cultivate people's awareness of patriotism in childbirth." However, most South Korean experts believe that the problem of low fertility cannot be simply solved with a single tax, which will lead to a deviation in society's understanding of low fertility. An expert said, "Elderly people should receive support from their children, rather than relying on the government or social system."
