On July 31, the National Health Commission issued the "Notice on Adjusting the Configuration Plan of Large-scale Medical Equipment from 2018 to 2020".After adjustment, from 2018 to 2020, 12,768 large-scale medical equipment of Category A and B are planned, of which 281 are planned for the configuration of large-scale medical equipment of Category A and 12,487 are planned for the configuration of large-scale medical equipment of Category B.
In terms of specific items and regional quantity distribution, the total planned number of proton radiation therapy systems in Category A large-scale medical equipment has increased from 10 to 16; the total planned number of positron emission magnetic resonance imaging systems has increased from 33 to 82.The total number of large-scale medical equipment configuration plans for Category B in the country, X-ray positron emission tomography scanners, endoscopic surgical instrument control systems, 64 rows and above X-ray computer tomography scanners, 1.5T and above magnetic resonance imaging systems, linear accelerators, and gamma-ray stereotactic radiation therapy systems have all increased to varying degrees.
The "Notice" pointed out that it is necessary to promote epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development in an overall manner, optimize the supply of medical services, and promote the acceleration of innovation and development of medical technology; give full play to the important role of large-scale medical equipment allocation planning and management in the regulation of health resources, and promote the scientific flow and rational layout of health resources; accelerate the clinical application of new equipment and new technologies, and enhance the emergency treatment capacity of major public health emergencies; support the healthy development of social medical practices, etc. Are the main principles of this allocation planning adjustment.
The "Notice" requires that all regions should study and formulate specific implementation work plans or work plans, strictly follow the requirements of relevant laws and regulations, and do a good job in the management of large-scale medical equipment configuration permits to ensure the timeliness of planning and implementation.Further deepen the reform of ”deregulation service", implement various requirements, continuously simplify procedures and optimize processes, and improve service quality and efficiency.Implement reform requirements such as the implementation of a notification commitment system for the allocation of Class B large-scale medical equipment for social medical offices, and the implementation of a record system for the allocation of Class B large-scale medical equipment for social medical offices in the pilot free trade zone, and support the allocation of large-scale medical equipment for social medical offices.Further study and improve the relevant systems and methods for the allocation and management of large-scale medical equipment, strictly implement laws, regulations and system regulations, increase supervision, strengthen post-incident and credit supervision, and strictly restrain the disciplinary mechanism.
