ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the affordability of 3 anti-tumor targeted drugs gefitinib,trastuzumab and sunitinib in ur-ban and rural residents of Hubei province,and to provide reference for medical insurance price admission of anti-malignant tumor targeted drugs in China. METHODS:Referring to the incidence of malignant tumor stated in statistical yearbook of Hubei province and income data of urban and rural residents in Hubei province,based on the policy of reducing the price of imported drugs by 50% mentioned in the national drug price negotiations,and assume the drugs are included in the medical insurance reimbursement list,WHO/HAI standard survey method,catastrophic expenditure evaluation method and poverty effect evaluation method were ad-opted to calculate the affordability of 3 drugs. RESULTS:According to WHO/HAI standard survey method,increment of payment for 3 drugs were 64.00%-74.00% before and after 50% discount and reimbursement. According to catastrophic expenditure evalua-tion method,50% discount of gefitinib and reimbursement gefitinib,trastuzumab and sunitinib in urban area would result in cata-strophic expenditures of 20.00%、59.28% and 35.48% patients;in rural area,would result in catastrophic expenditures of 50.63%、74.72% and 75.93% patients. According to poverty effect evaluation method,50% discount of 3 drugs and reimbursement caused less than 31.95% urban and rural patients falling to poverty. CONCLUSIONS:Fifty percentage discount of 3 anti-tumor targeted drugs mentioned in the national drug price negotiations cause the economic burden more serious for rural residents than urban resi-dents. In the formulation of policies,the corresponding reimbursement ratio should be adjusted according to urban and rural areas, drug price and disease types for a balance of patients with different economic burden.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To analyze the New Cooperative Medical System ( NCMS ) funds and Individual afford-ability of anti-tumor targeted drugs under different medical insurance entry price, and to provide the basis for establis-hing the access price for medical insurance. Methods: Choosing Conmana or Kemer ( the lung cancer targeted drug) and Herceptin (breast cancer targeted drug) to analyze the Wuhan NRCMS operating status from 2012 to 2014, use tumor surveillance data from Hubei Province during the period from 2011 to 2015;consult clinical experts to form expert consensus price, refer to the Jiangsu Province Access Price and National Negotiation Price, and explore the fund bal-ance and individual affordability when the afore-mentioned two kinds of drugs can be compensated by medical insurance under different price. Results:The basic account balances of NRCMS in Wuhan from 2016 to 2018 are-11. 948 million Yuan, 2. 513 million Yuan and 82. 955 million Yuan when Kemer can be compensated by medical insurance under Na-tional Negotiation Price. Taking the compensation of Herceptin under National Price after the bargaining, the basic ac-count balances are -26. 901 million Yuan,-35. 962 million Yuan and 17. 542 million Yuan respectively. The rate of poverty caused by illness falls to 33. 40% from 45. 85% when Conmana can be compensated by Medical Insurance un-der National Negotiation Price, while this rate falls to 45. 42% from 46. 00% for Herceptin. Conclusion:The two kinds of drugs can be afforded by the Wuhan NRCMS after the medical insurance access price is negotiated by the govern-ment, but the individual affordability of Herceptin at the National Negotiation Price is worse.
ABSTRACT
Objective To set up a three-dimensional finite element model (FEM) to investigate biomechanics of point contact locking plate (PC-LP) fixating femoral shaft fractures. Methods One intact fresh adult cadaveric femur was scanned by CT at 1 mm interval. Then, the data of CT were utilized to establish three-dimensional FEM by using software Mimics and PRO/E and simulate the different clini-cal loading conditions. The changes of theoretical stress of femur and PC-LP were analyzed under flexion, axial compression and torsion loads. Results (1) Under four-point bending load, the distribution of femur stress was in uniformity, with the largest stress of the PC-LP focused on the edge. (2) Under axial compression load of 250 N, the largest stress of the femur was focused on the screw holes on beth distal ends, with the largest stress of the PC-LP focused on the middle screw holes. (3) Under the torsion load cused on the middlepart and the middle screw holes. Conclusions Under the four-point bending, ax-ial compression and torsion loads, the distribution of femur stress is in uniformity, when the largest stress of the PC-LP focuses on edge or the middle screw holes, while that of the PC-LP on two screw holes of proximal or distal ends.
