(2)The procurement could meet clinical demands,though a small percentage of drugs were out of stock.(3)Drug prices fell in general,with 10%decline in domestic drugs with a unit package price over RMB 5yuan,a slight price reduction in imported drugs,and some price increase in cheap domestic drugs with a unit package price under RMB 3yuan.DPUCP policy in Sanming optimized procurement drug category and supplier structure,reduced price,and improved industrial structure.However,problems still existed,such as shortage of some drugs and little price reduction in imported and brand-name drugs.展开更多
