This year, because of my father's old problem with a herniated disc in his waist, I bought him a few boxes of methylcobalamin at the pharmacy.
A box of 30 tablets, 25.8 yuan a box.
Originally, I didn't worry too much about buying medicine, so I bought it for my dad for more than two months.
Until my dad went to the hospital for a re-examination, the hospital also prescribed methylcobalamin, 30 tablets, 8 yuan a box,
It's three times different from the medicine I bought, and there is no difference in efficacy.
When encountering this kind of thing, it should be fake.
Talking about this with people around me, a friend said: "Buy medicine online, it's cheaper online." ”
Some friends also said: "What should I do with the money in my medical insurance card when I buy medicine online?" There will always be a few drugs in each pharmacy that are cheaper to attract customers, and comparing more pharmacies can save a lot of money. ”
Like everyone else, I want the price of drugs to be more transparent and open, so I have been paying attention to national policies.
In the past few days, I have really seen the country's vigorous action and the hard work of the platform.
In the future, it is estimated that people will no longer be pressed by pharmacies to ask for money as before.
In some areas, medical insurance has two new functions and is gradually being promoted:
One is that you can check the cheapest medicine of the same type in the city with one click on your mobile phone.
One is that you can also buy medicine by takeaway.
01
In view of the opacity of drug prices in pharmacies, medical insurance in various places has begun to launch a new function:
online drug price comparison function,
With this function, we don't need to run around offline and shop around to buy medicines.
Search for the medicine you need through this function, and you will directly jump out of the pharmacy with the lowest price.
Take Shaanxi's "Shaanxi Medical Insurance" APP to give you a demonstration:
Click "Filter" to select the same drugs in the same city or even in the surrounding cities in the province for price comparison.
With the advent of this new feature, we don't have to go to pharmacies to compare prices.
It can also allow pharmacies and pharmacies to roll up with each other, giving consumers profits.
As far as I know, Shenzhen, Shaanxi, Dalian, Shenyang, Jingzhou, and Weinan already have this function.
Whether there is this function in your location, you can take a look at the local official public account news,
Know early, enjoy early.
02
The second function is that you can use your medical insurance card to buy medicine on the takeaway platform.
Everyone knows that it is cheaper to buy medicine online, but it costs us more flexible money to buy medicine online.
I've been thinking that it's better to use medical insurance to buy medicine online,
After all, the money on the medical insurance is dedicated to buying medicine to treat diseases, and it can't be spent on other things.
Using medical insurance to buy medicine is to withdraw cash from your medical insurance card.
It is gratifying that using medical insurance to buy drugs on the platform has gradually become a reality.
It may be the reason why various places have been launched one after another recently, and the news from all parties is not very comprehensive.
I searched the official webpages of various places and also checked with the takeaway platform.
At present, Dongguan, Beijing, Shangrao, Qingdao, Shanghai, and Shenyang can purchase drugs on the Meituan and Jingdong platforms to purchase medical insurance.
However, you can only swipe the employee medical insurance card, and you can pay the medical insurance locally, and the balance of the medical insurance card shall not be zero.
This project platform and city are under vigorous construction, and maybe one day, your city will suddenly open.
It is still necessary to pay attention to the local official news, know it early, and enjoy it early.
If your city has opened the function of taking out medicine and buying medicine,
After activating the e-health insurance, select the merchants and products that support the medical insurance,
At the time of settlement, the medical insurance account payment will be displayed.
Take Meituan as an example:
The operation is still relatively convenient, which can be understood as an additional payment method when paying.
The launch of these two new features is also popular with the people, which is good news.
The official website of each place announced the launch of these two functions, and the local IP applauded, and the foreign IP was all red-eyed.
The world has been suffering from pharmacies for a long time, and behind a pharmacy in three steps,
It is the general interests of the tower, and it is the common people who work day and night to build this tower.
You can pay more attention to Caizi, once there is a favorable policy, Caizi will share it with you in time.
