South Africa's Medical Devices Industry - Key Trends and Demand Drivers in Supply and Manufacturing - ResearchAndMarkets.com

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Supply and Manufacture of Medical and Surgical Equipment Industry in South Africa 2023" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

This comprehensive report provides valuable insights into the medical devices industry in South Africa, including key trends, demand drivers, notable players, trade information, and technology and innovation.

Overview of South Africa's Medical Devices Industry

South Africa's medical devices industry is characterized by a mix of small to medium enterprises and larger multinational companies with local subsidiaries or partners. The sector is dominated by imports, accounting for as much as 90% of the market. Disposable devices are the largest share of the market, followed by diagnostic imaging. The public sector accounts for almost half of healthcare expenditure but serves most of the population, while the private sector is better resourced with medical devices.

Demand and Key Trends

The demand for medical devices in South Africa is influenced by the prevalence of communicable and non-communicable diseases, trauma, and an aging population. However, low economic growth, real declines in health budgets, and high levels of unemployment have led to stagnant medical scheme membership or switching to cheaper plans. Additionally, corruption in the public sector has resulted in the loss of considerable funds. Private medical insurance remains largely unaffordable, increasing price sensitivity for medical devices. The report highlights various initiatives to improve collaboration and competition in the industry, including the Medical Device and Diagnostic Innovation Cluster and the use of medical telematic technology to manage patients from home.
