More than half of the top 100 pharmaceutical companies in the country have rebate issues. What is going on?

For ordinary people, the most fearful thing is getting sick. Not only does it cause great damage to the body, but it also consumes a lot of time and money. Therefore, the price of medicines has always been an important area of ??concern for the people and the government. Nowadays, most people also have medical insurance. They can get medicine and cure their diseases with less money, which is good news to ordinary people. However, news has been breaking out frequently recently that more than half of the top 100 pharmaceutical companies in the country are receiving kickbacks. What is going on? The specific situation

This incident is not groundless, but based on statistics from the Price Recruitment and Procurement Department of the National Medical Security Administration based on publicly available court judgment documents. In the past three years, more than half of the top 100 pharmaceutical companies in the country have There are direct or indirect acts of giving kickbacks. Among them, the company involved in the most cases has been involved in more than 20 cases in the past three years alone, and the kickback amount in a single case exceeded 20 million yuan. So where does the money for these kickbacks come from? Naturally, it is the hard-earned money of ordinary people buying medicines. In addition, relevant departments also directly posted videos exposing the behavior of others giving kickbacks. A staff member of the Pharmacy Department of the First People's Hospital of Tonglu County, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, took advantage of his position to collude with others in the hospital's drug procurement for personal gain. The amount of kickbacks he received was as high as 10.19 million yuan. In this process, the staff member was able to obtain a benefit fee of 3.25 million just by purchasing the commonly used injection drug laoxycephalosporin sodium in the hospital. But this is just one of many similar cases that have been exposed. In fact, in the medical field, such kickback cases often occur. Many large pharmaceutical companies even recruit medical representatives with high salaries, and the job of the medical representatives is to go to various hospitals to negotiate with doctors. The content of the negotiation is that as long as the doctors prescribe their own medicines to the patients, they can pay the doctors benefits. In fact, for many ordinary families, they can barely make ends meet with their children's tuition fees, car loans and housing loans, let alone getting sick. Once a serious illness occurs, it will be a huge disaster for the family. The hospital is supposed to be a place to save lives and heal the wounded, so why has it become a place for these criminals to make money?
