Recently, the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology jointly issued the "Guiding Standards for Government Procurement of Imported Products" (2021 edition).

Among them, 137 kinds of medical devices are required to be 100% purchased domestically;

12 kinds of medical devices require 75% to purchase domestically produced;

24 kinds of medical devices require 50% to be purchased domestically;

5 kinds of medical devices require 25% to be purchased domestically.

This standard is undoubtedly mandatory to regulate the proportion of domestically-made equipment purchased by public hospitals and other units across the country.

In fact, in the "Guiding Opinions on Promoting the Healthy Development of the Pharmaceutical Industry" issued by the General Office of the State Council this year, it is clearly stated that if domestic drugs and medical devices can meet the requirements, government procurement projects must in principle purchase domestic products and gradually increase public medical institutions. The level of domestic equipment configuration.

Immediately after the "Announcement of the State Administration of Taxation on the Amendment and Issuance of the "Administrative Measures for VAT Refunds for R&D Institutions Purchasing Domestic Equipment", it was pointed out that the full amount of VAT will be refunded to R&D institutions purchasing domestic equipment.

It can be said that domestically-made medical equipment configuration has ushered in unprecedented benefits for admission to the hospital!

Multiple provinces clearly post!

In addition to the list of imported products, domestic products are preferred

Since the beginning of this year, Zhejiang Province, Guangdong Province, and Sichuan Province have successively issued the latest "Imported Medical Equipment Purchase List", and even for the equipment on the list, reasonable reasons are still needed and domestic competition cannot be restricted. However, the equipment outside the list is naturally Domestic production is preferred.

In February, the Zhejiang Provincial Department of Finance announced the "Uniform Demonstration List of Imported Products Procured by the Provincial Government for 2021-2022 (Medical Equipment)". There are 195 types of imported medical equipment that can be purchased in Zhejiang.

In March, the Guangdong Provincial Health Commission issued the "Announcement on the List of Imported Products of Provincial Health Institutions in 2021". There are only 46 types of medical equipment in Guangdong Province, which can choose to purchase imported products.

In April, the Sichuan Provincial Government Procurement Network also released the "Provincial 2021-2022 Government Procurement List of Imported Products Demonstration Opinion Publicity (Medical and Sanitary Equipment)". There are only 59 types of medical equipment in Sichuan Province, which can be imported.

In addition to provincial documents, Guangzhou, Hangzhou and other places have also released more detailed documents to help domestic equipment open up the market.

Undoubtedly, such a signal is exciting news for all domestic manufacturers, but can domestic manufacturers respond to the same value to the country and the industry? The answer to this question, I believe every domestic equipment manufacturer is equally affirmative.

Recently, the selection results of the seventh batch of outstanding domestic medical equipment products have been released, including digital X-ray machines, ultrasonic diagnostic equipment, artificial intelligence-assisted diagnostic products, high-pressure syringes, liver ultrasonic diagnostic equipment, breath analyzers, liquid-based cytometers and other medical equipment fields , Dozens of outstanding domestic medical equipment manufacturers are on the list, such as Neusoft Medical, Anjian Technology, Shanghai United Imaging, Shenzhen Libang, Shenzhen Mindray, Xinhua Medical, Wandong Medical and many other well-known domestic equipment companies.

Innovative domestic equipment to replace imports is not only expected by domestic equipment companies, but also the result of the country's vigorous promotion. All enterprises must grasp the golden period of development, increase investment in research and development, do a good job in manufacturing Chinese medical equipment, make it more refined, further break the "stuck neck" key core technology, and gradually lead domestic equipment to the world!
