Abstract

This paper focuses on medical insurance drug negotiations in China and the United States, conducting a comparative analysis from five dimensions of the background and entities involved in negotiations, the scope of drug selection, the measurement of drug value, the negotiation process, and the outcomes of negotiations. It delves into the similarities and differences in medical insurance drug negotiations between China and the United States, providing an important perspective for further understanding the differences in drug price regulation between the two countries' healthcare security systems. This study holds both theoretical and practical significance.
