种植牙告别“万元时代” 多地公布种植牙集采目标价格******
多地公布种植牙集采落地日期和目标价格
最高不超4500元 种植牙告别“万元时代”
“万元种植牙”时代将落幕。北京青年报记者2月2日了解到，近日河南、安徽等多省医保局发布通知，公布种植牙集采落地日期和目标价格等。其中，湖南、河北等省更是已经于1月31日执行了种植牙的目标价格。
多地开始实施“种牙价格调控”
河南发布通知，明确自2023年2月10日起，单颗常规种植牙医疗服务价格全流程调控目标为4300元，单颗常规种植全流程费用不高于调控目标的97%。此外，广东省医保局也提出将单颗常规种植牙按照“诊查检查+种植体植入+牙冠置入”的医疗服务价格实施整体调控，全流程收费调整为政府指导价，最高价不超过4500元，其中粤东、粤西和粤北12个地市最高价不超过4300元。
而湖南省、河北省则已经于1月31日开始实施了“种牙价格调控”。其中，湖南省三级公立医疗机构单颗常规种植牙全流程医疗服务及药品总费用不超过4300元。河北省确定省级公立医疗机构调控目标为4300元。
安徽则将总费用控制在了4280元。根据安徽省发布通知，该省属三级公立医疗机构单颗常规种植牙全流程医疗服务及药品总费用不超过4280元，包含种植全过程的诊察费、生化检验、影像检查费、种植体植入费、牙冠置入费、麻醉费等，不包括拔牙、牙周洁治、根管治疗、植骨、软组织移植、即刻种植和即刻修复加收、颅颌面部种植体植入加收、临时冠修复植入、种植体系统及冠(义齿)费用。
收费名目透明化挤掉价格泡沫
北青报记者了解到，此前《国家医疗保障局关于开展口腔种植医疗服务收费和耗材价格专项治理的通知》。在专项治理通知中，曾经名目众多的种植牙收费渐渐规范化、透明化。通过专项治理，种植牙行业逐步实现更好评价、更好计价、更好监督的“阳光医疗”模式；医疗机构也走上了通过透明价格、规范管理、良好口碑等实现高质量发展的路径。该通知明确一颗种植牙的费用分为三个部分，即种植体耗材、牙冠耗材和医疗服务费用。国家医保局通过对公立医院设定调控目标，引导市场收取医疗服务费不超过4500元/颗。
收费名目的透明化，挤掉了因获客竞争等市场行为带来的价格泡沫。
带量采购 破解“种牙贵”
今年1月11日，在四川开标的种植体系统集中带量采购，是破解“种牙贵”的又一举措。这次被称为“史上最难”的集采最终平稳落地，平均中选价格降至900余元，平均降幅55%。
据国家医保局信息显示，此次参与报量医疗机构多达1.8万家，其中民营机构1.4万家，占医疗机构总数80%，需求总量达287万套，约占国内年种植牙数量(400万颗)的72%，预计每年可节约患者费用40亿元左右。具体来看，参与投标企业达55家，其中39家拟中选，中选率达71%。
价格方面，拟中选产品中选价格区间在约600元至1850元左右。瑞士品牌士卓曼、美国品牌登士柏、瑞典品牌诺保科种植体系统从原采购中位价5000元降至1850元左右，市场需求量最大的韩国品牌奥齿泰和登腾种植体系统从原采购中位价1500元降至770元左右。

中新网评：美国众议长选举“连续剧”暴露美式民主痼疾******
中新网北京1月9日电(蒋鲤)在15轮投票表决后，美国众议院议长选举这场“连续剧”终于落下帷幕，众议院共和党领袖凯文·麦卡锡最终成功当选第55任美国众议院议长。这是美国国会过去164年来耗时最久的一次议长选举记录，将美国“对抗式民主”的弊端暴露无遗。

由于两党对立加剧、党派内斗、利益分配不均等因素，众议长选举陷入一场拉锯战。在此次众议长竞选中，美国民主党议员继续抱团，多轮投票中，一票不投麦卡锡，共和党右翼“强硬派”领头的约20人小团体也拒绝投票麦卡锡。
麦卡锡的当选之路一波三折，除了本人的“政治投机派”角色在国会不受欢迎外，与共和党内部政治分歧关系密切。
一方面，共和党党内反对者认为，麦卡锡对民主党态度过于软弱，无力对抗民主党控制的参议院和拜登政府，另一方面，因为共和党的多数优势微弱，党内一些影响力较小的派系的政治力量则被放大，有利于他们巩固自己的选票。
此外，党内反对者也认为，自己的选票没有换取更多利益，希望以此作为筹码换取麦卡锡更大的让步，比如让他们获得众议院重要委员会中的职务。
作为仅次于美国总统、副总统的政坛三号人物，众议院议长通常由众议院多数党领袖担任，选举几乎没有悬念。然而，麦卡锡此次为当选，不得不做出多个关键让步，其中可能包括恢复一项罢黜议长动议机制，使得众议长的权力被削弱，难以掌控众议院。
美国有线电视新闻网CNN称，麦卡锡在这场不合时宜的政治勒索中作出让步，这种绥靖政策只会让极端主义势力更加强大。
这场引发全世界围观的尴尬选举暴露出美国政治存在严重的对立和分化。在权力博弈思维的裹挟下，党派利益凌驾于国家和人民利益之上，美国两党相互拆台，陷入“为反对而反对”的无脑对垒。而即便是一党内，也会因为利益分配问题产生不同的小派系，相互对抗，选票变成了谋利益的工具。
从国会山骚乱到打破记历史记录的15轮众议长选举，“对抗式民主”让美国政治陷入瓶颈，长期对抗势必会让政客们丧失客观公正的判断能力，其政治阶层是否有能力治理国家也会引发质疑。
两党之争和党派内斗进一步放大了美国政治体制弊病，美国所谓的“民主”形象，让全世界大跌眼镜。鼓吹以选民利益为先的美式选举，变成了政客们利益置换的游戏，进一步彰显出美国“民主政治”日渐失能，不断极化的党争已使美国政治制度陷入死循环。
House speaker election reveals deep-rooted problems in U.S. democracy
(ECNS) -- The Republican leader Kevin McCarthy was elected as the 55th speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives after 15 ballots. As the most grueling House speaker election in the past 164 years, the election has highlighted the defects of the country’s "confrontational democracy".
The election once reached a stalemate due to intense partisan strife, inner-party struggle among the Republicans, uneven distribution of interests, and more. Democratic Party members forged a close alliance, refusing to vote for McCarthy, while about 20 Republicans also declined to cast ballots for the GOP leader.
Except for his unpopular role as a "political speculator" in Congress, McCarthy’s hard-won election can be attributed to turmoil within the Republican Party.
On the one hand, opponents in the Republican Party believe that the GOP leader's attitude toward the Democrats is too weak to confront the Senate controlled by Democrats and the Biden administration.
On the other hand, the political power of some less influential factions in the Republican Party has been amplified due to the Party’s weak majority advantage in the House of Representatives, which is conducive to consolidating their ticket warehouses.
Meanwhile, these opponents believe that their votes failed to win them more benefits, hoping to use this as a bargaining chip for McCarthy's further concessions, such as getting them positions in important House Committees.
As the third political figure after the President and Vice President of the U.S., the speaker, by tradition, is the head of the majority party in the House of Representatives.
But McCarthy has made many concessions in order to bring the ultra conservatives along, involving what’s known as the “motion to vacate,” a mechanism by which members can force a vote to depose the speaker. The reported concessions will empower individual members at the expense of McCarthy’s sway as speaker.
CNN thought the concessions he made during this unseemly political shakedown would only make the extremist faction more powerful.
This embarrassing election, which has drawn global attention, exposed the serious opposition and polarization in American politics. Both Democrats and Republicans put their interests before that of the country and its people, attacking and opposing each other irrationally.
Besides, different factions arise within a single party and confront each other because of the distribution of interests. Votes have become a tool to win more benefits.
From Capitol riots to the House Speaker election with record-breaking ballots, "confrontational democracy" has become a bottleneck of American politics. Long-term confrontation will surely impede politicians to think objectively and fairly while their capacity of governing the country will also raise doubts among the public.
Both parties’ struggle and infighting among the Republicans have further amplified the defects of the American political system, with its "democratic" image shocking the world.
The U.S.-style election, which advocates putting voters' interests first, has become a game of interest exchange among politicians. In addition, it further demonstrates the malfunction of American "democratic politics" and the constantly polarized party struggle that has trapped the American political system into an infinite cycle.
