Health newspaper: It is one kind of lazy policies to limit the pharmacy interval
Tang Wei ( Staff member) In order to prevent the malignant competition, Hebei issues the new rule, already there are medicines retailers such as range of 200 meters of distance of straight line, no longer sanction newly building or relocating the medicines retailer. (" www.xinhuanet.com " of July 28) Adjust and control the quantity of overall arrangement by the pharmacy interval, has already become a kind of general phenomenon in all parts. For example Beijing stipulates clearly the pharmacy interval is 350 meters. Review some other places, either overt or covert regulations are all very much the same, a different one is different to the standard, there are 100 meters, there are 150 meters, there are 200 meters,etc. too. In addition, in most places in the whole country, it is still " voluntary " that the overall arrangement of the pharmacy is followed The principle, the government " tangible hand " Contribute, " distance " Require by force as one kind. The 3rd paragraph of article 14 of " law of medicine management " revised in 2001 stipulates, medicine supervised the department and sanctioned running medicines and managing enterprises, " should follow the rational overall arrangement and principle of helping the masses purchase medicine " . " implementing regulations of the law of medicine management " have specified the provision, but does not have clear regulation to form of expression and substantive content of retailer's rational overall arrangement of medicines, lead to the fact the regional regulation is different, it is very difficult to carry out. By the look of principle of sufficient competition of the market, it is undoubtedly " exceptional clause " to set up the leading condition of the overall arrangement before permission ,But the prerequisite should be an abundant necessity. So far as reality, there is no absolute relation with quality in the overall arrangement of the pharmacy, because the quality of medicines mainly depends on the production ink, it is only a respect among them to maintain and safeguard. In other words, the result of the competition may involve the quality of medicines, for example adulterate, mix the spurious with the genuine, but more one is prices and the service is benefited, the one in conformity with it is that the price is reduced, the service is more excellent. According to the essence regulation of the administrative licensing, so long as reach the legal condition, there should be qualification which becomes the market main body. For example its software and hardware can meet the legal requirement, should not be restrained by other conditions. If " it influences quality densely that the overall arrangement is crossed " Become a kind of basic principle, the ones that are then influenced are not only in medicines, the food, health product, cosmetics are the same, department store, store,etc. are not too dense in conformity with the interval either, those " * *A street " Should be banned. What the competition is stressed is " Select the superior and eliminate the inferior " ," survival of the fittest " ,Under the situation interests existing, may all present the malignant competition, unless complete monopoly. The pharmacy density concerns the competition, but may not hang and rise to the bait with quality, the persons who manufacture and sell the fake are a kind of morals behavior: Either associate with an evil person, or supervise mutually. Can't only see its negative effect ignores the front effect. Ensure the quality of medicines, attack the malignant competition, mainly depend on the supervision really up to the mark but not amount of the quantity. Under the reality, " rational overall arrangement " of the pharmacy Develop into the quantized regulation of the pharmacy interval. But the prerequisite of the rational overall arrangement, should be based on the locality and reside at various factors such as the size of population, region, traffic and actual need permanently, in different cases, should impart every factor with different weights. And the fixed interval of pharmacy is limited, it is no doubt simple and easy and feasible to operate, but perhaps will cause the applicable law rule of the trimming the feet to fit the shoes type, unfavorable to realizing the really rational overall arrangement to the pharmacy too instead. This is actually behavior of a lazy policy of supervision department, reduce the difficulty of the work in order to control the size artificially, neglect scientific threshold set up, have, deviate from again more, have a great deal of hidden dangers too supervising itself, there may not be result once and for all.
