Industry Insights
- Dominance of Imports: Multinational companies with local subsidiaries or partners dominate the South African medical devices industry, as imports account for a significant portion of the market, estimated at around 90%.
- Disposable Devices and Diagnostic Imaging: Disposable devices hold the largest share in the market, followed by diagnostic imaging equipment. These segments play a crucial role in meeting the demand for medical devices in the country.
- Public and Private Sector Divide: The public sector accounts for nearly half of healthcare expenditure in South Africa, serving a significant portion of the population. In contrast, the private sector is better equipped with medical devices and resources.
- Prevalence of Diseases and Ageing Population: The demand for medical devices is driven by the high prevalence of communicable and non-communicable diseases, as well as trauma cases. Additionally, an ageing population contributes to the need for various medical devices and orthopaedic appliances.
- Economic Challenges and Affordability: Low economic growth, declining health budgets, and high unemployment rates have led to stagnant medical scheme membership and price sensitivity among consumers. Affordability issues in private medical insurance further impact the demand for medical devices.
- Competition and Collaboration: Local suppliers face competition from established global companies in the market. Initiatives such as the Medical Device and Diagnostic Innovation Cluster aim to foster collaboration and enhance competition in the industry.
- Adoption of Medical Telematic Technology: Medical telematic technology is being increasingly utilized to provide remote patient management services, enabling the management of patients from their homes.
- Shift towards Affordable Medical Aid Packages: Affordability concerns have prompted a move towards cheaper medical aid packages, influencing consumer choices and impacting device preferences in the market.
