On March 11, 2016, the General Office of State Council printed and issued Guiding Opinions on Promoting Healthy Development of Medical Industry GBF [2016] No.11.

In which, in the Opinions of the State Council, the policy contents explicitly express that the State Council encourages and support the development of the third party medical repair service provider!!

Medical Device Quality Supervision and Administration Measures that has been implemented since this February proposes that, repair service institution with condition and capacity can be entrusted to have medical device maintenance and repair. The insiders believe that with the vigorous development of medical equipment, coupled with the national policy guide, after-sale third party agent will face broad market space.

In October 2015, the government explicitly regulated that the medical device user can entrust repair service institution with condition and capacity to have medical device repair and maintenance, let’s review relevant content of Medical Device Quality Supervision and Administration Measures No.18 order.

Time of socialized outsourcing service, awake the rise of new life

With the industrial development in the future, domestic medical equipment third party service provider is expanding and developing, gradually from “small shop” with “one-way attack“ to “scale effect”, many medical equipment third party service pioneers seek for better development blueprint. 

First, hospital has an obvious “20-80 law”: the equipment quantity covered in the warranty contract signed by hospital and manufacturer is only 20% large and new machine, the rest 80% equipment is basically let go, lack of system maintenance, repair and test. This point may become a hidden boom in the finance of hospital, when the machine without warranty contract is repaired, there will be many temporary expenses and completely cause uncontrolled finance of hospital. If a third party service provider can provide overall packed service to the maintenance of large medical device of hospital, it will yield twice the result with half the effort.

How to choose qualified equipment management service supplier?

At present, there are many medium and small repair companies in China, however, the company that can provide socialized overall medical equipment outsourcing service is rare, the requirement on providing such service is very high, and high-quality service provider shall meet the following requirement:

• With relevant management equipment experience, with certain company scale

• With improved repair part warehouse

• Supported by information management platform

• With complete service process system and supervision system

We hear the voice of the government, meet the hospital requirement, through our information technology management measure, establish high-quality team, test service center and customized service according to the government laws and regulations, provide high-quality all-round management service to hospital equipment, control cost and improve working efficiency.
