The medical devices market in China is forecast to grow at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of XX%, from $XX billion in 2011 to reach $XX billion in 2018.

A large population with a high percentage of elderly people, the rising incidence of chronic diseases and the country’s improving healthcare infrastructure are major driving factors for the medical devices market in China. China’s healthcare reforms are focused on improving the country’s healthcare services, with emphasis on improving the rural healthcare system. Improvements in the country’s healthcare infrastructure due to healthcare reforms and stimulus spending are expected to drive the market growth for both international and domestic companies. Growth drivers include factors such as improved affordability and accessibility of healthcare services, and increased demand for medical devices and equipment due to an increase in the number of hospitals. As the new insurance policies aim to increase the reimbursement ratio for a number of diseases, an expanding patient base will result in significant growth opportunities for the medical device manufacturers in the country.

Introduction

2 Introduction

The medical devices market in China has a significant presence of both international and domestic players. Domestic players essentially occupy the low and middle-end market, with a large number of players competing in these market segments. The presence of international participants is concentrated in the market for high-end products. The healthcare reforms implemented by the government in 2009 have helped China in the transition from a market-oriented economy to one focused on developing a strong healthcare infrastructure for the country.

The medical devices market in China has turned into a lucrative market with changes in regulatory and approval policies, especially for the domestic medical devices. This is helping local players to enter the medical device market, although competition among a number of smaller players is in turn expected to lead to pricing pressure and consolidation, which may have an impact on the profit margins.

The increasing number of hospitals as a result of the healthcare reforms and improving healthcare coverage in the country are expected to further increase the demand for medical devices. Other driving factors include an improving economic infrastructure, increasing healthcare expenditure and Gross Domestic Product (GDP), along with favorable patient demographics.

In this report, GBI Research has included the following major medical device markets in China: In Vitro Diagnostics (IVD), ophthalmic devices, orthopedic devices, cardiovascular devices, diagnostic imaging, nephrology and urology devices, diabetes care devices, drug delivery devices, wound care management, and healthcare IT.

The Chinese ophthalmic devices market grew at a CAGR of XX%, from $XXm in 2004 to $XXm in 2011. The largest category was vision care, with a value of $XXm in 2011. The increasing elderly population is driving the growth of the ophthalmic devices market in the country. A number of ophthalmic disorders such as cataracts, glaucoma and refractive disorders are age-related, and the rapid increase in the elderly population in China is creating a large patient pool. Increasing healthcare expenditure is also making surgeries for ophthalmic disorders affordable, resulting in an increase in the ophthalmic surgical volumes.

Growing awareness about ophthalmic disorders is another key driving factor for the ophthalmic devices market. Government initiatives to promote early detection and timely treatment of these disorders are increasing the adoption of ophthalmic devices in China. The increasing number of outpatient surgeries for cataracts is also instrumental in driving the demand for surgical equipment.

The in vitro diagnostics market is forecast to grow at a CAGR of XX%, from $XXm in 2011 to reach $XXm in 2018. The increasing focus on preventive measures and rural health will be the major driving factors. Free checkups for specific groups of the population, including women, children and the elderly, will boost the IVD market in China. Growth in the IVD market can also be attributed to the increasing number of hospitals, as well as the establishment of new private clinics in China.
