Urgent clinical needs and low substitutability
In order to facilitate timely purchase of NRDL (National Reimbursement Drug List) negotiated drugs by the vast number of patients, NHSA (National Healthcare Security Administration) organized experts to select the first batch of 19 drugs with urgent clinical needs and low substitutability from the new negotiated drugs in 2020, and arranged relevant enterprises to submit specific information of medical institutions providing such drugs, so that insured patients can receive medical treatment and purchase drugs easily. Ameile (Almonertinib Mesilate Tablets) and Hansoh Xinfu (Flumatinib Mesylate Tablets) are among such drugs.
