Israeli Medical Devices Market Sees 5% Growth Despite Shaky Healthcare Sector
Posted on: Friday, 10 November 2006, 03:00 CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c44963) has announced the addition of Espicom Business Intelligence's new report: The Medical Device Market: Israel to their offering.
Israel's healthcare sector remains amid a period of uncertainty. The continual political instability of recent years has been a marked factor in this malaise; healthcare policy has changed frequently and often faced widespread opposition. Progress within the sector is unlikely in the short term while government efforts are concentrated around the current dark state of Israeli-Palestine affairs.
Fluctuations in healthcare budgets, where heavy cutbacks were reversed by the government in the face of widespread opposition by many industry professionals in 2003, have caused additional concern over the future of national healthcare after 2002 saw the first ever decrease of healthcare spending in local currency terms since 1998. Allocations for the health basket are seemingly in a constant state of uncertainty.
The Israeli medical device market is the largest in the Middle East and is valued at an estimated US$589 million in 2006. Imports represent much of the market, which is dominated by 'high-end' products such as electromedical and X-ray equipment. Domestic manufacturing is solid and exports of medical equipment continue to rise steadily. Market growth is currently estimated at around 5%, and per capita spending places Israel among the leading 20 countries in the world.
