Research and Markets: The Medical Device Market: The Indonesian Market, Valued at just US$198 Million in 2008
Friday May 8, 02:00 PM
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/90b596/the_medical_device)
has announced the addition of the "The
Medical Device Market: Indonesia" report to their offering.
The Indonesian market, valued at just US$198 million in 2008, remains
small, this despite it having the fourth largest population in the
world. That said, the market is expected to grow at a solid 6.5% per
annum in the medium term reaching US$272 million in 2013, bringing it on
par with Singapore.
Indonesia remains one of the poorest countries in South East Asia. The
country lags behind in many areas of healthcare provision and the rupiah
has devalued strongly over the years. The weak currency and cheap labour
costs have made it an attractive location for manufacturing activities.
A base for export trade for multinational companies, exports in recent
years rose as domestic production increased, particularly contact lenses
which represented over a third of the total, as well as electromedical
equipment and hearing aids which also feature heavily.
Public funding for healthcare is low, estimated at around US$4.8 billion
in 2009 and the country continues to rely on international aid. Despite
the present administration placing more emphasis on healthcare, funding,
insufficient numbers of health professionals and bureaucratic problems
are hampering development. There is a marked disparity in the standard
of healthcare between rural and urban areas. The capital city Jakarta
enjoys relatively good levels of primary care as well as a range of
modern private specialist facilities, while healthcare coverage in
remote regions tends to be insufficient.
The bulk of the Indonesian medical device market is supplied by imports,
worth US$157.2 million in 2006. Indonesia only produces a small number
of low-tech medical items, such as surgical gloves, bandages,
orthopaedic aids and hospital furniture. However, with the exception of
2000, the country has been a net exporter since the late 1990s.
