Recently, the State Council issued the “Action Plan for Promoting Large-Scale Equipment Updates and Trade-in of Consumer Goods.” Implement four major actions: equipment updating, trade-in of consumer goods, recycling and reuse, and standard improvement.
Overall requirements: By 2027, my country’s equipment investment in the fields of industry, agriculture, construction, transportation, education, cultural tourism, and medical care will increase by more than 25% compared with 2023. It is expected that the market size of this round of equipment renewal will exceed 6 trillion yuan.
Medical equipment is one of the seven key areas for this round of equipment updating. The plan particularly emphasizes the need to “build a high-quality and efficient medical and health service system and promote the iterative upgrade of medical and health institutional equipment and information facilities.” Encourage qualified medical institutions to speed up the updating and transformation of medical equipment such as medical imaging, radiotherapy, remote diagnosis and treatment, and surgical robots. At the same time, promote the transformation and upgrading of wards of medical institutions to make up for the deficiencies in ward environment and facilities.
The policy orientation of the new version of the “Industrial Catalog” clearly states that it will promote the high-end, intelligent and green manufacturing industry. A number of encouraged categories for the pharmaceutical (device) industry were announced in the new catalog. Among them, key encouraged projects in the field of innovative development of high-end medical devices include: high-performance medical imaging equipment, artificial intelligence-assisted medical equipment, etc.
As an active response to the national industrial upgrading strategic decision, Wuhan Half the Sky vigorously promotes the high-end, intelligent and scientific research of medical devices in the field of pelvic floor diagnosis and treatment.
