Major products include surgical and medical instruments (about 30 percent of industry revenue), such as syringes, hypodermic needles, and catheters, and surgical appliances and supplies (about 25 percent), such as sutures, surgical dressings, and orthopedic devices. Other sources of revenue include lab equipment and furniture (centrifuges, scales, operating tables, hospital beds); ophthalmic goods (prescription glasses, contact lenses); diagnostic and anesthetic equipment; and dental equipment and supplies. Syringes are typically produced in assembly lines. The basic stages include needle formulation, plastic component molding, piece assembly, packaging, labeling, and shipping. Needles are produced from molten steel drawn through a die. The steel is rolled into a continuous, hollow wire and cut to form the needle. Plastic barrels and plungers can be made through extrusion or injection modeling. The barrel moves down a conveyor and is held in place to receive the plunger, needle, and safety cap. The completed syringes are packed into boxes, stacked on pallets, and sent to distributors. Sterility and safety are key in manufacturing. Steel is often coated with nickel to prevent corrosion, and the production plant must be free of disease-causing agents. Workers wear masks and sterile garments to prevent the spread of germs. Quality control agents use precise instrumentation like calipers, micrometers, or microscopes to ensure that products are the appropriate thickness, length, and width. For many technically advanced products, manufacturing is labor-intensive. Many small manufacturers outsource manufacturing to facilities operated by contract manufacturers. Manufacturers of low-tech product like latex gloves, tape, syringes, and gauze are most concerned with maintaining a highly efficient, low-cost manufacturing environment. Companies that specialize in diagnostic and therapeutic devices generally emphasize technological innovation and precision. Major inputs include stainless steel, silicone or latex rubber, plastic, aluminum, polymers, and natural fabrics. Electricity and natural gas typically provide the power for manufacturing. The industry is technologically advanced, and new product development is a major activity for most manufacturers. Patents are valuable and patent disputes frequent. Large companies often buy small companies that have developed promising new technologies.

Manufacturer sales tend to be through traditional channels, though some medical supply resellers specialize exclusively in online sales. The Internet plays an important role in marketing product uses, features, and benefits to distributors, hospitals, and physicians. The FDA regulates online sales and marketing of medical devices by third parties. Companies may try to sell devices like contact lenses without a prescription, or may sell items like magnets and patches that purport to cure diseases, aches, and pains.
International Insights
Global revenue for makers of medical equipment and supplies is about $350 billion. The US is both the largest consumer and producer of medical devices in the world, followed by Japan, Germany, France, and Italy, according to the US International Trade Administrations Office of Health and Consumer Goods. Major companies based outside the US include PRIM (hospital and orthopedic supplies, Spain), Smith & Nephew (joint and bone products, UK), Terumo (disposable medical supplies, Japan), Covidien (disposable medical and surgical products, Ireland), and B. Braun (medical and surgical products, Germany). The top five medical device markets (the US, Japan, Germany, France, and Italy) comprise only about 13 percent of the worlds population but account for more than 75 percent of the use of medical devices, according to the International Trade Administration. Countries such as South Korea have seen faster growth in the medical equipment and supplies industry, partly because of increased focus on health care. China, too, is experiencing growth, as its burgeoning economic development and aging population boost demand. The Chinese medical device industry is expected to reach nearly $43 billion in 2019, according to Pharmaphorum. Since some emerging economies lack the infrastructure to develop and manufacture high-tech medical devices, they may import those products while focusing on production of disposable medical supplies. Malaysia, for instance, is one of the worlds largest rubber sources, and latex products make up the biggest share of its medical equipment and supplies exports.

Global packaging, labeling, and unique device identification technology are top issues for manufacturers of medical equipment and supplies. The benefits of standardized packaging and labeling include patient safety and product identification and tracking. The International Medical Device Regulators Forum (IMDRF), which is made up of the EU, the US, Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, Japan, and the World Health Organization (WHO), is working to standardize national and industry medical device regulations and requirements. Health care providers, the main purchasers of medical equipment and supplies, depend on reimbursement from insurance companies and government entities. However, reimbursement policies vary widely by country and there is little if any standardization, according to the International Trade Administration. Low reimbursement rates can restrict trade and discourage manufacturers from expanding into new markets. Global demographic trends favor manufacturers of medical equipment and supplies. By 2050, the number of people over 60 years old will be about 2 billion, according to the United Nations. The regions with the fastest growing percentages of elderly people are the US, the EU, and Japan, which are also top markets for medical equipment and supplies. As populations age and become more prone to disease and chronic conditions, markets for health care and medical devices grow. Products that will be the most impacted by this change in demographics will include hip and other joint replacement products and home kits for monitoring chronic conditions.
Imports of oilseeds to the US come primarily from Canada, China, Argentina, India, and Chile. Major export markets for US oilseeds include China, Mexico, Japan, Indonesia, and Germany.

Opportunity: Medical Monitors Trade Clumsy Leads for Wireless Tech - Medical monitoring devices that track patient vital signs are increasingly taking advantage of wireless technology, according to Qmed. Wireless technology eliminates the need for wires and cables used to link the device to the patient and often get in the way of patient care. Supporting to this trend is the FCCs allotment of radio spectrum for medical body area networks (MBANs), which will prevent interference from Wi-Fi and other devices. Several device manufacturers are using technology such as nearfield communication and disposable sensors that prevent cross-contamination. Industry Impact - Demand for wireless technology is driving innovation in the industry, providing companies with the opportunity to expand market share.

Opportunity: Repeal of Medical Device Tax Advances - Legislation pending in Congress would repeal the medical device tax, which many industry insiders say reduces innovation and employment and drives manufacturing overseas. The tax is estimated to cost the industry $30 billion over the next 10 years. The proposal to repeal, recently approved by the Senate, still has to pass the House and may not survive further federal budget negotiations. Industry Impact - While the Senate vote to repeal the medical device tax holds promise for the industry, medical device and equipment manufacturers will have to operate under the current system until further notice, which could require cutting employment or R&D investments.

Challenge: Regulations, Taxes Could Hinder Growth - The output of US medical instrument and supply manufacturing is expected to grow 3 percent in 2013 compared to 2012, according to the latest industry forecast for First Research by INFORUM. Despite favorable demographic trends that will boost demand for innovative medical equipment and supplies, the industry faces unpredictable government regulations and taxes, according to the Medical Device Manufacturers Association. A new medical device tax, which could collect $30 billion over the next decade, could put pressure on margins for the industry. Industry Impact - Many manufacturers believe a new tax on medical devices could cause them to cut jobs or reduce hiring, and product innovation could suffer if fewer talented employees are available.

Challenge: Makers of Carotid Stents Face Opposition - Companies that make carotid stents designed to prevent stroke are asking Medicare to widen approval for the products, but their use has raised controversy. Medical researchers say that modern stroke drugs are more effective, which could render the technology obsolete. If Medicare broadens the use of stents in at-risk patients who as yet show no symptoms, the market for preventive stent placement could be as many as 100,000 new patients, according to The Wall Street Journal. Surgeons who side with the medical device makers say that doctors should be able to have all tools at their disposal. Researchers counter that studies show that the use of drugs is safer and more effective than stent surgery. Industry Impact - If researchers opposed to the use of carotid stents convince doctors to prescribe drugs to prevent stroke, it could significantly curtail the market for these devices or even make them obsolete.
Industry Indicators
US consumer prices for medical care commodities, which may impact supply and device makers' profitability, fell 0.1 percent in July 2013 compared to the same period in 2012. US manufacturers' shipments of miscellaneous durable goods, an indicator of demand for medical supplies and devices, rose 4.6 percent year-to-date in June 2013 compared to the same period in 2012. US retail sales for health and personal care stores, a potential measure of consumer spending on medical supplies and devices, increased 0.6 percent in the first seven months of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012.

Critical Issues
Dependence on Regulators - All new medical devices require approval from the FDA to be marketed, and from Medicare and other insurers that ultimately pay for use. Although FDA and Medicare have streamlined procedures, review for new devices can be lengthy and approval uncertain. Devices that get FDA approval may be unsuccessful if insurers judge them to be too expensive. The costs associated with such regulation can be high, particularly with higher risk, Class III devices. Medical Device Tax - Medical device manufacturers say that a 2.3 percent medical device tax put in place under the Affordable Care Act poses a considerable financial burden for the industry. The tax is expected to cost the medical device industry about $30 billion over the next 10 years. Critics say that the tax will limit investment in the industry, cause cutbacks in R&D, and place an inordinate burden on small startups with innovative products.

Business Challenges
Patent and Intellectual Property Issues - Patents and intellectual property are crucial to a companys success. Many companies spend around 10 percent of their revenues on intellectual property research and development, and must also expend resources in obtaining and defending their patent rights. Companies often acquire rivals to obtain their intellectual property, which in turn contributes to industry consolidation. New Disclosure Rules - Under the federal Sunshine Act, medical device manufacturers will have to report to Medicare any payments to physicians and teaching hospitals, such as investment interests, ownership, or other transfers of value. After the law takes effect in 2014, manufacturers will have to compile the information annually. The Sunshine Act is designed to make transactions between manufacturers and physicians transparent to patients and others. Mandatory Product Labeling - The FDA is considering structured product labeling requirements for the medical equipment industry, along the lines of the requirements for the labeling of pharmaceutical products. A standardized device label is already in development. Medical device manufacturers are concerned that requirements would be too rigid and would not account for the wide variety of medical devices -- a catheter, for instance, would need to impart different medical and safety data than a more advanced device. Product Liability - Companies in the industry are at risk of being held liable for injuries alleged to be caused by their products. They may be subject to product recalls, lawsuits, and FDA investigations, all at great expense. As a result, the cost and availability of liability insurance are a major concern for most companies. Dependence on Large Customers - Buying groups act as distributors for about half the nation's nonprofit hospitals. Often, smaller medical device and supply companies can be shut out of sales to hospitals when a larger competitor has secured exclusive contracts with the purchasing group. Most large medical manufacturers sell heavily to purchasing groups. Product Obsolescence Risks - Medical device manufacturing is highly specialized, and rapid industry innovation greatly increases the risk of technological obsolescence. Most medical device companies are small and specialize in just one type of device, targeted toward a particular market, so they can't spread the risk of obsolescence across multiple products and markets. Competition from Alternative Products - Device manufacturers are concerned that advances in biotechnology may make certain devices obsolete. Biotech treatments like bone, organ, and tissue replacements may ultimately be more restorative than devices implanted into patients. Even preventive and pay-for-performance health care, with its proactive focus to reduce the risk of disease and debilitating conditions, may be considered competition for manufacturers. Health Care Cost Containment - Because of rapidly increasing health care costs, private insurers and government programs like Medicare have moved to limit payments for many medical treatments that require medical supplies or devices. Doctors and hospitals, in turn, have a greater incentive to resist price increases. US producer prices for medical equipment and supplies rose 10 percent between 2005 and 2012. Some medical device manufacturers are concerned that the insurance industrys negotiations for volume discounts on pharmaceuticals could also be successful for the medical technology industry, further suppressing prices.
Business Trends
Specialization - Medical device manufacturers are increasingly specializing in one area of medicine and sometimes in just one type of treatment. AtriCure, for example, makes only devices that treat atrial fibrillation. The high degree of specialization in a field of rapid innovation allows small companies to compete successfully, but also greatly increases the risk of technological obsolescence for any individual company. Consolidation - Increased consolidation of manufacturers and distributors has been driven partly by customer consolidation: hospitals, doctors groups, clinics, purchasing groups, and MCOs. To buy in bulk at lower costs, customers form large buying groups, and sellers are more likely to get contracts with these groups if they can offer a wide product assortment. Other factors driving consolidation are shorter product life cycles and the high cost of new technology development. Outsourcing Distribution - Strong sales and marketing skills are often necessary to convince health care providers to accept new technologies. Many medical product manufacturers outsource sales and marketing to networks of specialty distributors, who typically are small and local, selling a dozen manufacturers' lines.

Industry Opportunities
Steady Demand - While many industries are affected by economic downturns, the growth of medical technology remains largely undeterred due to its indispensable nature. Implanted defibrillators, female diagnostics, and cardiac monitoring equipment are rapidly growing market segments. Additionally, medical devices may come on the market faster than other medical or health care products, making medical device companies attractive to investors. Advances in Wireless Technology - Manufacturers of implantable medical devices and diagnostic equipment are rapidly adopting wireless capabilities into their designs. With wireless technology, doctors and patients have better access to real-time data from medical devices. For example, wireless technology in hearing aids allows patients and doctors to remotely adjust volume and balance. Favorable Demographic Changes - Changing demographics of the US population favor the medical device industry, quite aside from the pace of technological innovation. From 2010 to 2020, the number of Americans 65 and older is forecast to increase by more than 35 percent. Total US population is forecast to increase by 10 percent during the same period. Reprocessing Medical Devices - As the US becomes increasingly concerned about health care costs, some analysts have pegged medical supply waste as part of the problem. Due to increasing concern over the volume of medical waste, some medical devices are now recycled or reprocessed for resale. New FDA rules stipulate that all hospitals and third-party medical device reprocessing facilities must comply with the same FDA regulations as original equipment manufacturers of medical devices.
Executive Insight
Chief Executive Officer - CEO
Thriving in a Complex Regulatory Environment Manufacturers of medical supplies and devices face a complex and changing regulatory environment affecting the development, manufacture, and sale of products. The FDA continues to evolve regulations governing approval of new products; standards for good manufacturing practices (GMP); and standards for use of medical supplies and devices. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has proposed competitive bidding for medical supplies and devices and changes to hospital reimbursement rates that may discourage purchases of innovative medical technologies. Executives must stay abreast of regulatory changes and develop effective responses to maintain growth and profitability. Managing Alliances and Acquisitions The high cost of development and regulatory approval for new medical devices, along with pressure to reduce health care costs, is driving consolidation among manufacturers. Small manufacturers are teaming with larger companies through both marketing and sales alliances and company mergers. These combinations provide additional resources and efficiencies in managing the regulatory approval process and justifying the cost-effectiveness of new products with third-party payers.

Managing Research & Development New product development is essential to a company's operations. Spending on R&D typically accounts for around 10 percent or more of a companys revenues. Intellectual property and patent rights comprise a significant part of a companys operations. Integrating Supply Chain Systems Manufacturers are lowering costs and reducing lead times by implementing software systems that integrate the entire supply chain from purchasing to manufacturing to distribution. Manufacturers of medical supplies are also being required to integrate with the supply chain management systems of distributors or hospitals to deliver needed supplies the same-day. Hospitals are seeking to minimize supply inventory levels as part of cost-containment programs.
Human Resources - HR
Hiring and Retaining Research Specialists Smaller manufacturers of medical devices and supplies tend to focus on a particular medical area and must recruit and retain research specialists in that area. Competition can be intense for researchers in medical areas with strong growth prospects, such as reproduction diagnostics or cardiac monitoring. Companies often rely on consultants who specialize in medical recruiting to source experienced researchers from competitors and academic environments. Merging Cultures and Systems As companies grow through acquisitions, theyre often challenged by merging diverse corporate cultures and incompatible HR systems. Some choose to retain acquired companies as separate subsidiaries to minimize integration issues, a strategy that also limits potential synergies and works only where each companys medical devices address separate markets. Successful mergers are usually the result of having detailed integration plans upfront, assigning dedicated managers to the merger process, and actively communicating plans and expectations to all employees.
VP Sales/Marketing - Sales
Building Physician Relationships Physicians are not only key customers for medical supplies and devices, but also serve as consultants for the design of new products and development of marketing programs. Companies rely on them for feedback on how products are used, and theyre important in clinical trials and regulatory submissions. Manufacturers must build and maintain strong relationships with physicians who specialize in the medical areas targeted by their new products. Negotiating with Buying Groups To reduce the cost of medical supplies, half the nonprofit hospitals in the US now buy through buying groups. These buying groups may offer exclusive contracts to suppliers in exchange for price discounts. Sales teams for manufacturers of medical supplies and devices must successfully negotiate contract terms with buying groups to retain access to the hospital market while also meeting profit goals.
