After the outbreak, although the domestic epidemic situation has been effectively controlled, it will still take some time for the vaccine to be put on a large scale, and the cost of the vaccine has always been concerned.
Vaccination is a trend, and vaccine cost is a problem. The outbreak has been going on for a long time. Although the domestic situation has been relatively stable, the foreign epidemic situation is still not optimistic. The root cause of the epidemic can not be solved for the time being, and communication at home and abroad can not be stopped, which means that the epidemic may plague our lives for a long time.
In the case of vaccination, universal vaccination is the general trend. However, according to the current online vaccine price, the cost problem is a problem that many families will face. Especially for ordinary families in rural areas, the cost of vaccines for the old and the young has even exceeded the daily living expenses in the first quarter or even half a year.
The medical insurance fund cannot fully reimburse medical expenses, which is the response given by the medical insurance bureau. On the issue of vaccine cost, some NPC representatives raised questions? Will vaccination in COVID-19 be included in the full reimbursement of medical insurance? Of course, this is good news for ordinary people, but it is actually unrealistic, and the response of the medical insurance bureau also proves this.
The National Health Insurance Bureau gave a special answer to this question, saying that at present, the financing level of basic medical care in China is low, and it is impossible to extend the scope of payment to non-treatment items such as vaccines, and according to relevant regulations, preventive vaccines are not included in the scope of medical insurance payment.
In fact, this answer is not surprising. With such a large population base in China, full reimbursement of vaccine costs is too high. If full reimbursement is really adopted, it may seriously affect people's basic medical security and medical needs.
Try to make money, and you still have to rely on yourself to get vaccinated.
