Our reporter learned from the Municipal Medical Security Bureau that from 00:00 today, the price of nucleic acid testing for the new coronavirus in public medical institutions in our city has been reduced again. The price reduction will also further reduce the cost of large-scale nucleic acid screening and high-frequency testing, and effectively reduce the burden of nucleic acid testing costs for the masses.
Zhou Xia, Director of the Pharmaceutical Price and Bidding procurement division of the Municipal Medical Insurance Bureau:
The price of the new coronavirus nucleic acid test single test in public medical institutions in our city will be adjusted from 40 yuan to 28 yuan each time, and the price of mixed mining test will be adjusted from 10 yuan per person to 8 yuan per person, and the adjusted price is the highest guidance price and must not be floated.
The Municipal Medical Security Bureau said that under the premise of complying with the provisions on epidemic prevention and control, the public medical institutions in our city will provide two service options at the same time, single inspection and mixed sampling testing, allowing the masses who are "willing to check and check" to choose voluntarily.
This new crown virus nucleic acid testing price adjustment is the fifth price reduction in our city according to the requirements of relevant national and provincial documents, combined with the needs of epidemic prevention and control, and we will urge medical institutions to strictly implement relevant regulations.
