Today (December 28), the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the National Health Commission, the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Science and Technology, the Ministry of Finance, the State owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council, the State Administration of Market Supervision and Administration, the State Health Insurance Administration, the State Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine and the State Drug Administration jointly issued the Notice on the "Fourteenth Five Year Plan" Medical Equipment Industry Development Plan (hereinafter referred to as the "Plan").
According to the Plan, during the "13th Five Year Plan" period, China's medical equipment industry has developed at a high speed and the market scale has expanded rapidly. In 2020, the market scale will reach 840 billion yuan, with a compound annual growth rate of 11.8%; The manufacturing system is basically sound, forming a product system of more than 1100 categories in 22 categories, covering all aspects of health, and basically meeting the needs of medical institutions in China for diagnosis and treatment, elderly care, chronic disease prevention and emergency rescue;
The main body of enterprises has grown, with more than 2300 industrial enterprises above designated size, main business income of 413.4 billion yuan, and an average annual compound growth rate of 11.6%, forming a number of cooperative and distinctive industrial clusters; The technical level of the products has been improved rapidly, breaking through a batch of key technologies such as superconducting magnets, electron accelerators, radio frequency/spectrometer, etc. The orthopedic surgical robots, the third generation artificial heart, and focused ultrasound treatment systems have reached the international advanced level, becoming an important global medical equipment production base.
However, it cannot be ignored that the unbalanced and insufficient development of China's medical equipment industry is still prominent, and there are still weaknesses in key core technologies, the security and stability of the industrial chain supply chain, the promotion and application of innovative products, etc.
The Plan proposes five goals:
By 2025, the upgrading of the medical equipment industry foundation and the modernization of the industrial chain will be significantly improved, the mainstream medical equipment will basically be effectively supplied, the performance and quality of high-end medical equipment products will be significantly improved, and the overall support capacity for public health and medical health needs will initially be formed.
Optimize and upgrade the whole industrial chain. Medical equipment is in urgent need of basic parts and components, basic software, basic materials, basic processes, industrial technology foundation and other bottlenecks and weaknesses to be basically supplemented, and an industrial chain supply chain with strong innovation, high added value, safety and reliability has been initially built.
The technical level has been constantly improved. Medical equipment has been applied in a large scale in prevention, diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation, health promotion, public health and other fields. A number of high-end products such as extracorporeal membrane oxygenation machine (ECMO), endoscopic surgery robot, 7T human whole body magnetic resonance imaging system, proton heavy ion integrated treatment system have been applied.
The vitality of enterprises has been significantly enhanced. The ecological leading force and core competitiveness of leading medical equipment enterprises have been greatly improved. A number of world leading single event champion enterprises in subdivided fields have emerged, as well as a number of specialized and new "small giant" enterprises that master core technologies and unique processes. Large, medium, small and micro enterprises have developed harmoniously.
The industrial ecology was gradually improved. Medical+industry, hospital+factory, doctor+engineer and other multi-dimensional medical and industrial collaborative innovation models have been initially established, health medical services have developed rapidly, and new business types such as telemedicine, mobile medicine, smart medicine, precision medicine, and traditional Chinese medicine have been comprehensively innovated and developed.
The brand influence has been significantly improved. The recognition of medical equipment products, brand reputation and international influence increased rapidly, and its position in the global industrial division and value chain improved significantly. 6-8 enterprises ranked among the top 50 in the global medical equipment industry.
By 2035, the research, development, manufacturing and application of medical equipment will have reached the world's advanced level. China has entered the forefront of medical equipment innovation countries, providing strong support for ensuring people's all-round and life-long health services.
