Cardiac stents will now be affordable for everyone, with prices dropping more than expected.
Cardiac stents are one of the most important medical supplies for many heart disease patients, but their high price makes them unaffordable for many ordinary families. Because of its high clinical use and high price, cardiac stents have become the first batch of national centralized volume purchasing of consumables.
From an average price of 13,000 to an average price of 700, the price of cardiac stents has dropped by a gratifying margin.Cardiac stents are often used as medical consumables for heart diseases, but their prices have been high for a long time, bringing great economic pressure to patients. Under the general trend of deepening health care reform, the state has taken the initiative to organize centralized volume purchasing, and according to relevant news, the average price of cardiac stents has dropped from about 13,000 yuan to about 700 yuan.
The centralized band purchasing has brought a response to patients using cardiac stents, and patients across the country are expected to use the selected products of this band purchasing in January next year, and the price of cardiac stents should be drastically adjusted downward.
Cardiac stents will be affordable for everyone in the future, which is the purpose of the state-organized band purchasing.The substantial drop in the purchase price of cardiac stents means that the price of cardiac stents for patients using them in hospitals will likewise drop dramatically, most likely to less than a thousand dollars. That should be an affordable cost for the vast majority of families.
While prices have fallen off a cliff, before organizing band purchases,? Tianjin relevant departments intensive research medical device quality supervision and inspection center, mapping the testing capacity to ensure that the selected product quality can be traced. Ensure that every product applied to patients is safe and effective?
This also means that patients can rest assured that they can use the heart stents selected after this band purchasing, even if they use a few at a time, and do not have to worry about giving up due to cost. In this day and age, there may not be too many families that can readily come up with tens of thousands of dollars to use medical supplies, but coming up with a few thousand shouldn't be a problem. The fact that heart stents will be affordable for everyone in the future is a change that will soon be realized.
In reality, there are a lot of medical supplies other than cardiac stents that are overpriced. It is hoped that under the general trend of deepening healthcare reform, after the significant price reduction of cardiac stents, there will be a significant price reduction for other medical consumables, so that the public can afford to see a doctor.
The price reduction of cardiac stents is a boon to patients, and we hope that this good news will become more and more frequent.
