Ten development trends in 2018

In 2017, we predicted that the "golden development period" of the medical device industry had arrived. In 2018, the medical device industry will continue to develop healthily in the policy dividend, and the new development cycle of the medical device industry has started.

(1) The government should streamline administration and delegate powers, implement the principle of "deregulation, administration and service", and clarify the main responsibility. The reform of the government's large department system has redefined the responsibilities of various government departments, and the policies have also repositioned the responsibilities of R & D, registration, procurement, production, distribution, sales, quality and agency. The pilot and implementation of the system of medical device marketing license holder (MAH) clarifies the responsibilities of product marketing holders from the perspective of "responsibility".

(2) Encouraging innovation will certainly become a new driving force for the future development of the industry. The innovation of medical devices has been put to an unprecedented height. "Product innovation, mode innovation and regulatory innovation" have become the new characteristics of the industry development in the new era. The establishment of green channel will make more new products come into the market quickly. CrO (clinical research organization) and CMO (contract manufacturing) will bring more new products into the market Organization (i.e. production contract, processing and outsourcing service organization) will also make great strides. In the past, medical device manufacturers mainly provided value services for medical institutions by manufacturing and selling products. In the future, the mode of medical services will quietly change, and the industrial value chain will change from functional to service-oriented, ushering in major changes. Medical device innovation will develop at an unprecedented pace in 2018.

(3) The market structure has been reshaped and a new pattern of competition has been formed. In the new era, the medical insurance mechanism is diversified, the price formation is complicated, the centralized procurement is fragmented, and the price reduction and cost control become normal, which makes the organizational form of medical institutions, medical insurance payment methods, product structure, channel structure, marketing mode, product benefit distribution, etc. new changes will promote the new With the formation of market structure, the new market competition pattern is about to start.

2. The medical and health industry will lead a new wave of economic development

In 2015, the policy proposed to focus on "combination of medical care and health care"; in 2016, the "healthy China 2030" was issued, which promoted "healthy China" as a strategy; in 2017, the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China included the "healthy China strategy" in the report, and implemented the "made in China 2025" to accelerate the transformation of China from a manufacturing country to a manufacturing power. In the future, the medical and health industry will face unprecedented opportunities and challenges. The medical and health industry based on "big health, big health and big medicine" is expected to become an industry with rapid growth in national economic development, and become the pillar and new power of China's economic development.
