Medical apparatus is an important part of the pharmaceutical industry. In recent years, national policies and capital and technology investment have poured a lot of effort. General Secretary Xi Jinping also proposed the localization of medical apparatus during his inspection in the south, trying to develop the domestic market and promote the progress and development of the national medical apparatus industry. However, at present, the ownership rate of domestic medical apparatus in our country is not ideal, and most of them are foreign products.

Why is the domestic medical apparatus unable to occupy the domestic market?

The size of China's medical equipment and equipment market ranks fourth in the world. However, some experts have analyzed that the government's "control of the scale" of public hospitals has not affected the "expansion" of their medical apparatus, but the level of medical institutions is different and the configuration model of medical equipment is different.

At the same time, with the steady development of the economy, the continuous expansion of medical insurance coverage, and the increasing demand for large-scale high-precision medical equipment inspections by grass-roots insurers, especially the current medical insurance, social security and "three guarantees in one" reform, etc., the need for medical equipment is increasing. It is expected that in the next five years, the configuration of medical apparatus in medical institutions across the country will at least double.

There is no doubt that domestic medical institutions are an important market for the development and growth of our national medical apparatus industry, which deserves attention and development. This requires increased investment in technology and capital. At the same time, the government should give strong support to the relevant policies and systems of the domestic medical industry. Break the bottleneck and make up for the shortcomings.

In particular, large-scale medical equipment, while strengthening quality supervision and improving production quality, must strengthen government leadership and increase the development of the domestic market, such as the introduction of rigid policies, different levels of public hospitals or medical insurance designated hospitals must be equipped with a certain proportion of domestic medical apparatus.

Reasonably open the price of inspection and treatment of imported equipment; medical insurance payment is tilted; at the same time, attach importance to and strengthen after-sales services, it is recommended that large manufacturers or a number of small and medium-sized manufacturers join forces to set up medical apparatus maintenance stations in a certain user's area, Resident service, guaranteed on-call.

In this way, the quality of domestic medical apparatus is guaranteed, the operation is efficient, the price and service price are low, attract users and consumers, highlight their excellent industry image and market value in the medical market, can gradually increase the domestic market share, promote the rapid development of national medical industry.
