Highlights

  • Historically, China had a very high out-of-pocket expenditure on healthcare. However, the proportion of out-of-pocket expenditure on healthcare dropped from 60% in 2001 to 40% in 2008 due to the increasing coverage of social health insurance schemes.
  • China’s population will increase by 85m people between 2010 and 2020. 85% of this will be accounted for by an increase in the population of over 60s, which will prompt growth in markets for cardiovascular diseases, dementia, and other age-linked conditions. A sharp rise in lifestyle diseases such as diabetes and obesity is also underway.
  • Reforms are set to present opportunities for pharma companies, CROs, medical device manufacturers, and private health insurance providers. Healthcare IT is also set for a boost, as the government begins to invest in electronic health records.
