Zhejiang medical equipment to open up new blue sea

On July 17th, the 56-year-old Ms. He returned to the ward for a short time. The nurse told her that the CT result had come out and the doctor ruled out the possibility of her bowel cancer. The doctor told her that she could not believe it. This is the first spiral CT in our province to fill the domestic blank. The clarity and accuracy can be completely smashed outside the US. Therefore, this diagnosis can be convinced... This happened in a provincial hospital in Hangzhou. A scene.

This scene, in addition to giving Ms. He a big surprise, is a symbol: the 40th anniversary of reform and opening up, especially the implementation of the 'eight-eighth strategy' for 15 years, Zhejiang medical equipment from the lower end products, to the present comprehensive Rise from the back of the world's advanced medical equipment, to the gradual approach, to some areas of certain products to reach the world's advanced level; from few patents, to patent surge, until the core technology, to fill a lot of world medical Equipment technology blank. Zhejiang enterprise Mingfeng Medical's 128-slice spiral CT is a good example. Zhejiang medical equipment is a big bright spot in Zhejiang economy, Zhejiang medical and health undertakings and people's livelihood.

According to the person in charge of the relevant departments of our province, Zhejiang is a major medical device province in history. Last year, under the guidance and encouragement of the policy, the application of large-scale medical equipment in our province has achieved considerable results: the enthusiasm of medical institutions to apply domestic large-scale medical equipment Continued growth. By the end of 2017, the province's medical institutions have configured a total of 159 large-scale domestic medical equipment (CT, MRI); the province has established a provincial-level domestic large-scale equipment application demonstration base, the municipal-level domestic large-scale medical equipment application base two The domestic large-scale medical equipment enterprises have grown from the original three to six. Kangda Intercontinental, Langrun, Aotai and other three companies have invested about 3.05 billion yuan in our province; product line covers CT, MRI, PET-CT , DR, color ultrasound and other high-tech medical equipment, involving research and development, production, training and other industrial chains. It is expected to achieve an annual output value of 20 billion yuan, profits and taxes of 3 billion yuan.

'Our province will build a medical equipment product chain focusing on domestic large-scale medical equipment, build a high-tech-type enterprise gathering place mainly based on medical equipment manufacturing, and drive related supporting production enterprises to form an industrial ecosystem of high-tech medical equipment manufacturing. . The person in charge said.

Zhang Hanwen, secretary general of Zhejiang Medical Device Industry Association, said: 'In recent years, with the accelerated transformation and upgrading of the industry, Zhejiang medical equipment industry has entered a period of pain, facing problems and challenges.

He has worked in the association for many years and knows the bottleneck of Zhejiang medical equipment industry. He analyzed that the medical equipment enterprises in Zhejiang Province have the characteristics of low, scattered and chaotic, the scale of the industry is small, the homogenous competition is serious, and the gap between the advanced provinces and cities is higher. The province's medical equipment industry's main business income accounted for only 3.9% of the country, ranking the ninth in the country, with only 42 companies with annual sales exceeding 100 million yuan.

It is understood that the medical device manufacturers in our province are almost all private enterprises. In the past, they have made outstanding contributions to the development of Zhejiang's economy. However, there are also weak independent innovation capabilities, insufficient investment in R&D, and R&D investment of most enterprises. Compared with sales, the ratio is less than 3%. The investment of advanced countries and excellent enterprises exceeds 15%. The products of enterprises are mainly low-end products, and a large part of high-end products are monopolized by foreign leading enterprises.

'The lack of talent resources, the industry lacks professional talents, especially the high-end leading talents. The lack of a planned training system for medical devices, so the talents of the industry are not answered. This is why we are not as good as others in key core technologies. 1. Mr. He Zhenhai, President of Zhejiang Medical Device Industry Association, is an expert in the medical device industry. He has personal experience in talent issues. Since he served as president for more than three years, the association has served the service industry and serves members. Promote the development of Zhejiang medical device industry as the primary goal, do a good job of the government's assistants, act as a bridge and link, and be rated as a 5A-level association. He believes that scientific cultivation and introduction of talents is the key to the accelerated development of Zhejiang medical device manufacturing industry. .

In addition to talents, there must be good policies; with good policies, they need to be implemented. It is understood that in recent years, our province has introduced many good policies to support the development of medical devices in Zhejiang. 'I have issued a '141 document ', is taking the lead in the country, supporting the development of medical devices, precision docking, precision services, sounding the marching number of medical equipment development in our province, great people. However, the implementation of relevant policies is not satisfactory, Zhejiang Medical Devices The channels for entering the hospital are not smooth, innovative products are developed, and it is impossible to price, and the tendering process cannot be entered. How to adapt to the market and stimulate the innovation of medical equipment enterprises in our province Start a business Enthusiasm is a big challenge to our wisdom and ability. ' Zhang Hanwen said.

At the recent Zhejiang International Intelligent Medical Innovation Conference, the leading experts in the medical device industry at home and abroad, the relevant person in charge of the medical and health sector in our province agreed that the next few years will be the golden age of medical device development in China, and product growth. The speed will remain around 15%, which will be much higher than drug The growth rate of the industry is higher than the GDP growth during the same period. Therefore, how to seize the great opportunity to promote Zhejiang production medical instruments Taking off and fully serving the health of urban and rural residents has become an important proposition for all relevant people in the industry.

He Zhenhai believes that it should start from four aspects: policy, project, capital and talent.

'Zhejiang' enterprise There is a status of 'low dispersion'. Guide enterprises to become bigger and stronger, achieve transformation and upgrading, and cultivate a number of national demonstration enterprises that can lead and drive the development of the industry, which is the goal of Zhejiang medical equipment industry. 'He said, to achieve this goal, to grasp It is very important to live in policy opportunities. 'The medical device supervision and management regulations are revised, the registrant system will be introduced, more second-class medical devices will be exempted from clinical trials; government at all levels will support the production and research and development of medical devices in health parks; 'Document 141', the establishment of the Zhejiang Provincial Medical Device Industry Development Coordination Group Office consisting of 12 departments, to promote the medical device industry to become bigger and stronger... These policy initiatives are good governance, good initiatives. ' According to the relevant departments of the province Our province has researched and developed a number of support policies, such as separately preparing domestic large-scale medical equipment configuration plans, reserving sufficient planning quantities for medical institutions to configure domestic large-scale medical equipment, further simplifying the configuration review process, optimizing approval processes and services, and shortening the review cycle. .

Seize the development opportunities of products (projects) and promote the localization of medical devices. The introduction of medical devices, high imitation, improvement and innovation, huge space, and active development of marketable medical device products, is the largest medical device development in recent years. One of the opportunities. Focus on solving the key core technologies and materials in the manufacturing process. The star enterprise of our province, Mingfeng Medical, is the best example. In just seven years, it has reached the forefront of the country and it has seized the development opportunity.

Funds are always indispensable for the development of various undertakings. Zhang Hanwen said that the '13th Five-Year Plan plans to use medical care as a key development industry, and there is a large influx of social hot money, and the investment and financing environment is superior. 'Therefore, it is necessary to use social funds to promote Innovation and research and development of medical devices, promoting the rapid growth of medical devices in Zhejiang.'

In fact, our province has also adopted a considerable amount of financial tilt, giving financial assistance. For example, the Provincial Health Planning Commission will arrange a special fund of 59 million yuan with the Provincial Department of Finance to support 26 1.5T magnetic resonance in the province; For each provincial level hospital Purchasing, medical equipment products in the Zhejiang Fine Manufacturing Catalogue are subsidized according to the proportion of 10% of the actual purchase amount. For the first set of major equipment products recognized as the country, a reward of 1 million yuan will be given, which will be awarded as the first set of major equipment products in the province. 500,000 yuan reward.

Scientific cultivation and full introduction of talents.

At the Zhejiang International Intelligent Medical Innovation Conference, the relevant leaders of the provincial government said that our province has become a veritable medical health industry leader in the country. As an important part of the medical and health industry, Zhejiang medical equipment is related to people's livelihood and can take off with high quality. , Become the vanguard in the medical and health industry in our province? We will wait and see.
