Some consumers are linking it to the latest reform in China's drug regulation history. In May, the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), China's top economic regulator, announced the price ceiling imposed by the government on over 2,700 pharmaceutical drugs would be removed from June 1 onward.展开更多

Based on the theory of intergovernmental information sharing, this study aimed to investigate the drug price information sharing mechanism in China through literature research and stakeholder interviews, which included institution guarantee mechanism, department coordination mechanism and technical support mechanism.展开更多
