Abstract: Objective In order to test the implementation effect of the mutual recognition of ethics, the Beijing Municipal Health Commission decided to conduct on-site supervision and inspection of the 25 medical institutions in the alliance that have the qualifications for the main review. To this end, the alliance has formulated the scoring standards for the on-site supervision and inspection of mutual recognition of ethical review to ensure the objectivity and consistency of the inspection. Methods The scoring standard is mainly formulated with reference to the Working Rules of Beijing Medical Ethics Review Mutual Recognition Alliance and the preliminary basic research of 25 medical institutions. Results The scoring standard consists of 3 first-level indicators, 10 second-level indicators and 13 third-level indicators. The three first-level indicators are system construction (30 points), implementation of mutual recognition (25 points) and review efficiency (45 points). Conclusion The scoring standard is an important tool for promoting mutual recognition of medical ethics review in Beijing. Although individual indicators have limitations in their use at the current stage, in general, they can be used to comprehensively examine the implementation and effect of mutual recognition of ethical review, and have certain operability.
