I COVERSTORY

n early 2022, India proposed National Medical Devices Policy 2022 to facilitate orderly growth of the medical devices sector in the years to come by putting in place a comprehensive set of measures for the sector. The policy addresses concerns over accessibility, affordability, safety and quality, and focuses on self-sustainability and innovation. Against this backdrop, the Indian Medical Devices market has the potential to increase at a 37% CAGR and reach $50 bn by 2025.

The INDUSTRY

Indian

Fact Sheet MEDICAL DEVICES

1. Easy access to standard testing and infrastructure facilities by creating top-notch infrastructure facilities will reduce the production cost of medical devices which would eventually lead to better affordability and availability of medical devices.

Among the top 20 markets for medical devices globally, India is the 4th largest market for medical devices in Asia after Japan, China and South Korea, The market size of the medical device industry is expected to reach $ 50 bn by 2025

INITIATIVES

Due to the low cost of medical care in India, medical tourism is experiencing a 22-25% growth. Reasonable cost of accommodation, entertainment facilities, favourable healthcare infrastructure, positive service quality

The government allocated Rs. 86,200 crores in the Union Budget 2022-2023 for the pharmaceutical and healthcare sector The department of pharmaceuticals launched a PLI scheme to foster domestic manufacturing of medical devices, with a total outlay of funds worth Rs. 3420 crores for FY21-FY28. In November 2021, the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) collaborated with the Indian Institutes of Technology (IIT) to set the foundation of ‘ICMR at IITs’ by setting up Centres of Excellence (CoE) for Make-in-India product development and commercialisation in the medical devices and diagnostics space.

The Indian government has identified medical devices as a priority sector in the ‘Make in India’ program. Another scheme, The Production Linked Incentive Scheme (PLI) launched by the government promotes domestic manufacturing of medical devices. Production linked Incentive Scheme for pharmaceuticals has also been introduced to push India’s vision of becoming a global manufacturing hub for medical devices.

SOME FACTS 

There are more than 6,000 types of medical devices in India It is the 2nd largest PPE Kits manufacturer with a production capacity of 10 lakh+ PPE kits per day There are a total of six manufacturing clusters for Medical Devices: Gujarat, Haryana, Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, and Tamil Nadu. BYTHE GOVERNMENT

To build a medical device park in the township of Himachal Pradesh, Nalagarh in Solan District, the government-sanctioned a proposal worth Rs. 5,000 crore

2. Reaping the benefits that would arise due to optimization of resources and economies of scale. Rise In Medical Tourism

Introduction Of Medical Parks

GROWTH DRIVERS

The Medical devices sector has been recognised as a ‘Sunrise Sector’ by the government of India under the ‘Make in India’ campaign in 2014

Recognising the need for a higher level of investments for the creation of proper infrastructure in the medical devices sector, the Department of pharmaceuticals launched a Scheme for the Promotion of Medical Devices Parks. Proper infrastructure will create a robust ecosystem for medical device manufacturing in the country. The other objectives are:

Health Insurance

Changing Preferences

of healthcare personnel, transportation and medical fees are other factors contributing to the rise of medical tourism. Medical tourism contributes over $2 billion to the Indian healthcare sector. The rise in medical tourism leads to rising demand for healthcare and medical devices.

A rise in Disposable Income

To request a service, one must ask for it and should be able to afford it. Demand for medical care increases when there is an increase in disposable income. According to the statistics, 8% of Indians will earn more than $12,000 per annum by 2026.

Approximately 20 per cent of the Indians have health insurance cover and this number is expected to increase with rising incomes and growing urbanisation. Health insurance leads to an increase in demand for healthcare services and thus, medical devices.

Growing awareness for health, changing attitudes towards preventive healthcare, & the onset of different kinds of deadly diseases are also leading to the growth of the Indian medical devices industry. It is quite clear that the Indian Medical Devices Industry is on the verge of gaining tremendous heights.

SEGMENTS OFTHE MEDICALDEVICES SECTOR COVERSTORY

RECENT INDUSTRYTRENDS

As the world demands trained professionals in the medical field, numerous educational institutions have been introduced to provide training and research in the medical devices field. The government has also undertaken some key initiatives like setting up medical colleges, funding the expansion of existing colleges, and increasing the capacity of medical students.

The Indian Medical Device Industry has witnessed tremendous growth over the last decade. The current trends indicate even higher growth potential. Here are some trends that would provide an impetus to the medical device industry: ROBOTICS

Robotics is emerging as the fastest-growing field in healthcare. In medical manufacturing, robots are used in the entire production line –from assembly to inspection and packaging. The surgical robotics segment holds enormous potential. Manufacturers are increasing their Research & Development (R&D) efforts within robotic surgical systems. BIG DATA

analytics models are using ‘Big Data’ to improve the quality of care and patient outcomes. Various companies are utilising this technology by gathering key patient vital signs along with other observations from devices in order to make informed decisions about the patients’ health. EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMMES

Source: The information in this report has been obtained from the India Brand Equity Foundation, a Trust established by the Department of Commerce, Ministry of Commerce and Industry, Government of India and Invest India, National Investment Promotion & Facilitation Agency of India, a non-profit venture under the aegis of Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade, Ministry of Commerce and Industry, Government of India.

The medical devices industry generates an abundance of data which can have a significant clinical impact. However, the data captured from medical devices remain wasted and underutilised. Thankfully, the rise in predictive analytics is changing the technological lag. It is a technology that learns from experience (data) to predict future trends with an aim to drive better Predictivedecisions.

TELEMEDICINE

As per the reports, the Indian Telemedicine market in India is expected to reach USD 5.5 bn by 2025. Trials conducted in this field have demonstrated that remote consultations cost about 30% less than equivalent in-person visits, replacing half of the in-person consultations in India. Telemedicine Guidelines of India, 2020 launched by the Government of India promises to pave a road map for the regularisation and diversification of teleconsultation services across the country.

 STARTUPS Many Indian startups and SMEs are entering the medical devices industry and contributing their significant part. There are more than 250 active MedTech Startups based out of India. Health-tech and Digital Health startups in India have raised over the US $2 billion between 2011-2020 with 500+ investments into 340+ companies.

Oasis Fertility beats back this myth and therefore strives to offer accessible, affordable, informative, compassionate and quality healthcare for couples hoping to be parents by combining evidence-based treatments with state-ofthe-art advances in medical technology.

DR NAYANAPATEL Director, Zivia IVF

That’s what Husnain did for himself and for all the differently abled people. How? Let’s figure this out.

Meet This We are all gifted, but we have to discover the gift, uncover it, nurture it, and develop it to make it work for us.

A journey is always full of pain and failure. It is not only the steps forward that we must accept. It is the stumbles, the trials that we must overcome to move forward. The journey of wheelchair dancers was no different. There were times when the thoughts of hopelessness, a sense of unfairness and bouts of anger enveloped them but the moment they cheered up and relooked at themselves, they discov ered a better side of life.

This is the story of many differently-abled dancers who with their self-belief, hard work, commitment, conviction and hope have battled all the stereotypes for choosing dance as a profession and using a wheelchair.

HUSNAIN: THE FOUNDER

Riding on the newly-discovered strengths, they were relishing the beauty of life. The crutches that they hated turned into magical wands. The wheelchair that they disliked was shaped into a roller-skating toy. The sign language that everyone cringed, morphed into lyrical notes as they all were overcoming all obstacles and creating new history not only for themselves but also for all the differently abled people who are looked down upon.

THE CHALLENGES

“Being a differently abled person, I understand what issues a differently abled person goes through. We Are One Dance Academy runs on the sole motive of promoting disability, not only in India but across the globe,” explains Husnain.

The Founder, Husnain has been on a wheelchair since his childhood. He is performing on wheelchair for the past 15 years and this has made him understand that the view of the world is beautiful even from a wheelchair. His love for dance grew when he joined the Amar Jyoti Charitable Trust, an Anand Vihar-based voluntary organisation that rehabilitates persons with disability. After establishing We Are One, he got many back-to-back stage opportunities including a big opportunity of representing India in Singapore in 2018. Appreciation and recognition came in from different parts of India and the globe.

THOUGHT BEHIND THE NAME

Husnain, a trained Bharatnatyam differently-abled dancer never knew that he would make history by establishing the ‘We Are One’ Dance Academy. Established in 2016, this academy today trains over 90 students with the sole objective of achieving dignity, feeling empowered & included and being treated equally with any other human being.

“Whether it be a differently abled, visually impaired, or slow learner or any other person; everyone is equal and should be treated equally in all aspects of life. To promote the same, we came up with the name ‘We Are One’,” explains Husnain.

“We want to help everyone understand that disability is not a curse. Our destiny is in our hands. With passion, zeal and determination we can succeed in life,” mentions Husnain. This is just the beginning. Many more stories need to be written, records to be broken, and history to be created.

Some people here can’t walk, and some cannot hear or speak, but with a dancing heart, they are winning the heart of many people across the globe. What makes them ‘One’ is their consistent hard work, determination, commitment, and passion for dance.

Why the Academy has been named ‘We Are One’?

It is the only academy in India that professionally performs Indian classical dance on wheelchairs. This academy works on 4 motives – Dignity, Equality, Inclusive, and Empowerment.
