February 10 (Reporter Xu Penghang) The reporter learned from the National Medical Insurance Bureau on the 10th that the "Medical Insurance Drug Consumables Traceability Information Query" function of the National Medical Insurance Service Platform APP was officially launched recently. By scanning the drug traceability code on the medicine box, drug buyers can obtain detailed drug sales information and understand the "past and present" of the drug. At present, nearly 33,000 people use this function to query drug sales information every day.

The drug traceability code is the only "electronic ID card" for each box of drugs. The traceability code of a box of drugs should only have a record of being scanned and sold once. If it appears repeatedly, there is a possibility of counterfeit drugs, reflux drugs or drugs being sold in exchange.

According to reports, after drug buyers register and log in to the National Medical Insurance Service Platform APP, they can enter the "Medical Insurance Drug Consumables Traceability Information Query" function to scan the code or enter the traceability code for query. If the product under investigation is suspected of multiple sales, the public can claim compensation from the designated medical institutions that sell the drug based on this information and in accordance with the relevant legal provisions.

Since April 2024, the National Medical Insurance Administration has been fully engaged in the collection and application of medical insurance drug and consumable traceability information. According to data from the National Medical Insurance Administration, as of January 16, 2025, a total of 15.806 billion traceability codes have been collected nationwide, and 880,900 designated medical institutions nationwide have been connected, with an access rate of 94.7%.

"We welcome the general public to use this function, scan the drug traceability code, check the drug sales information, participate in drug safety management together, jointly maintain drug safety, and jointly protect the safety of medical insurance funds." A relevant person in charge of the National Medical Insurance Administration said.
