About the Medical Device Market in China

China has the world's largest population. In 2008, it was officially estimated at 1,328.0 million. The province of Guangdong, in south-central China, had the largest population, with 95.4 million, equal to 5.7% of the total. Eastern China was the most populated region of the country, inhabited by 382.4 million people in 2008. The area includes Shanghai, China's largest city, with a population of 18.9 million.

In 2009, the Chinese government committed 850 billion yuan (US$124 billion) to develop the country's healthcare system over a three-year period. The plan is to create a solid platform for universal healthcare access for all by 2020. The Chinese government expanded the health insurance program to cover all rural residents by the end of 2008. Urban health insurance was already well established, covering nearly all working citizens, and the government plans to cover all urban dwellers, including the unemployed and children who were not covered previously.

The prospects for medical device spending is huge; the government has committed heavily in the construction of thousands of hospitals, healthcare centers, clinics and this will inevitably lead to spending on capital goods, most notably medical devices, equipment and furniture at an unprecedented rate in a relatively short space of time. Espicom estimates medical device market growth to be in the region of 13.1%; one of the fastest growing markets in the world. High rates of growth are not uncommon in the Asian region, but on the back of a huge market size, China's growth is particularly pronounced.
