DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "The Supply and Manufacture of Medical and Surgical Equipment Industry in South Africa 2023" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
'The Supply and Manufacture of Medical and Surgical Equipment Industry in South Africa 2023'
This report on the manufacture and supply of medical and surgical equipment and orthopaedic appliances in South Africa includes information on the state of the sector, the main devices used and imported, utilisation of healthcare services using medical technology, licences, notable players and technology and innovation.
South Africa's medical devices industry consists of mostly small to medium enterprises and larger multinational companies with local subsidiaries or partners.
The latter dominate the industry as imports account for as much as 90% of the market. Disposable devices make up the largest share followed by diagnostic imaging. The public sector accounts for almost half of healthcare expenditure but serves most of the population, and the private sector is better resourced with medical devices.
The need for medical devices is underpinned by the prevalence of communicable and non-communicable diseases and trauma, as well as an ageing population. These factors have not necessarily led to higher demand due to low economic growth resulting in a real decline in health budgets and high levels of unemployment leading to stagnant medical scheme membership and/or switching to cheaper plans. Of the public funding available, considerable amounts have been lost through corruption. Private medical insurance is largely unaffordable, increasing price sensitivity for devices.
Local suppliers compete with entrenched global companies. Various initiatives have been launched to improve collaboration and competition including the Medical Device and Diagnostic Innovation Cluster. Medical telematic technology is being used to provide services to manage patients from home. There is a move towards cheaper medical aid packages due to affordability issues.
