Guo Fanli, a researcher in the pharmaceutical industry at CIC Consulting, pointed out that due to the need for long-term medical care for the elderly and the increasing demand for health care, as well as the improvement of people's living standards, coupled with the ongoing new medical reform, in this new situation, how should China's medical device industry develop in the future and in what direction?
1、 Wide Market Space for Rural Medical Devices
Guo Fanli, a researcher in the pharmaceutical industry at CIC Consulting, pointed out that for a long time, the construction of rural basic medical facilities in China has clearly fallen behind the needs of reality, and rural grassroots medical institutions have not been fully developed. Rural grassroots medical institutions in China account for 7% of the total number of medical institutions in the country, but they bear nearly 60% of the country's diagnosis and treatment volume. Due to the lack of a complete medical service network, Its high demand cannot be effectively released.
With the promotion of the new medical reform and the national network construction of the rural market, the construction of rural grassroots medical institutions in China will be strengthened in the future. As a major measure to expand domestic demand, the government has recently invested 4.8 billion yuan to support the construction of rural health service systems. In 2009, the central government invested nearly 2.7 billion yuan to support the construction of rural tertiary health infrastructure, The infrastructure construction in rural areas largely involves increasing and improving basic medical facilities, which will expand the medical device market.
For a long time, there has been a shortage of medical equipment in rural grassroots medical institutions in China, and many of them are "second-hand" equipment that is too old or exceeds the service period. However, since the new medical reform plan is proposed, this situation will be effectively alleviated. Nowadays, the proportion of financial investment in purchasing basic medical devices in China is increasing. With the continuous promotion of the new medical reform, rural grassroots medical institutions will become more and more perfect and sound, which will also drive the growth of demand for rural medical devices. In the future, China's rural medical device market has broad development space.
2、 The construction of medical device platforms is a key focus for development
Guo Fanli, a researcher in the pharmaceutical industry at CIC, pointed out that during the "12th Five Year Plan" period, China will vigorously adjust the development direction and product structure of the medical device industry, support and develop the medical device industry with independent intellectual property rights. The technical research, product research and development, platform construction, and base construction of the medical device industry will be the focus of China's medical device industry development during the "12th Five Year Plan" period, It was also formulated and completed in accordance with the "Outline of the National Medium and Long Term Science and Technology Development Plan".
Guo Fanli, a researcher in the pharmaceutical industry at CIC, pointed out that the focus of China's medical device industry development during the 12th Five Year Plan period can be divided into two levels. On the one hand, it is technology and product research and development. With the steady implementation of the new medical reform, increasing the research and development of medical device products is currently the focus. For platform construction and base construction, only by effectively improving the "scattered, chaotic, and poor" situation of China's medical device industry can we effectively improve, To promote its healthy development.
3、 Medical devices will develop towards high technology, humanization, and miniaturization
