Abstract

Objective: The paper analyzes the current status of price governance for typical laboratory test items and provides references for the standardization of medical service price governance. Methods: Taking the four laboratory test items in the first batch of national price governance as the research objects, this paper analyzes the problems of current laboratory test items, uses descriptive statistical analysis methods to compare the dynamic evolution of price levels before and after price governance, and the price relations among regions and items. Results: There is heterogeneity in laboratory test price items in various regions. Before standardized governance, the regional difference of price levels was obvious. After the implementation of the policy, the price system of laboratory test items showed a trend of overall downward price levels and narrowing of inter-provincial price differences. The price comparison of detection methodologies shows overall optimization but regional imbalance. Conclusion: The standardization and governance of price have basically achieved the goal of relatively balanced prices among regions, but there is still room for improvement in the optimization of price relations of methodologies for similar items. It is suggested to establish a unified national standard system and project initiation guidelines for price of laboratory test items, a price optimization mechanism guided by the value of technology and labor services, and a comparison and calibration mechanism for similar items based on clinical value.
