ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To sum marize the pro cedure and informatization construction of centralized volume-based procurement（VBP）in our hospital ，in order to give references for normal development of centralized VBP. METHODS The standardized workflow system was established ，including using flow chart method to establish standardized workflow ，carrying out procedure training and inspection of procedure implementation ， and continuously conducting procedure optimization. The information system was developed for the task links that needed a lot of calculation to improve the automation level of information processing. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS Eight specific work procedures were established in our hospital ，including the work procedures of submitting the demand data of centralized VBP and the implementation of centralized VBP ，and has taken measures such as procedure training ，establishing supervision and inspection system and using auxiliary means to promote the implementation of the procedure ，so as to optimize the procedure and work form. An informatization platform for the clinical task allocation of the agreed purchase quantity of centralized VBP and a supervision platform for the daily use of VBP were also established in our hospital，then the two tasks with a large amount of calculation could be finished. Standardized workflow system and informatization platform construction has improved the operation and supervision efficiency of centralized VBP in our hospital ，ensured the completion of centralized purchase tasks and saved human resources ，which has a certain promotion value.
ABSTRACT
Centralized drug procurement in large quantities is a major step to deepen the medical and healthcare system reform, to improve the mechanism of drug price formation, and to give full play to the role of medical insurance in guiding drug prices in China. Combined with the practice of centralized drug purchasing in public hospitals, the authors sorted out the practical problems and causes from four aspects which affected the implementation of centralized drug purchasing policy in public hospitals: selection on centrally purchased drugs, procurement and supply, clinical use, and hospital financial operation. On this basis, suggestions were put forward to provide reference for the normalization of centralized drug procurement work, such as coordinating national and regional drug collection policies, reasonably setting distribution costs, extending the agreed procurement period, and carrying out special evaluation for drug collection.
