The direction for medical consumables centralized procurement in 2025 is set!

The direction for medical consumables centralized procurement in 2025 is set!The direction for medical consumables centralized procurement in 2025 is set!

With the initiation of price reduction procedures for various types of consumables, price bottoming and implementation penetration have become the main themes of the medical consumables industry in 2025.

The price of a single set of cochlear implants has been reduced from 200,000 yuan to 50,000 yuan, with the lowest price for peripheral vascular stents at only 2,000 yuan. The average price of breast biopsy needles has been compressed from 3,000 yuan to 821 yuan. On the basis of an initial 70% price reduction through centralized procurement, the prices of ultrasonic scalpels and pre-filled catheter flushers have on average decreased by another 12.18%......

These figures not only mean more savings for the medical insurance fund but also mark the end of the era of high profits for consumables.

However, this is still not the end. 2025 will be a critical turning point for the medical consumables sector, shifting from "unrestrained growth" to "meticulous cultivation." After prices hit rock bottom, the focus of industry competition will shift from "who can reduce prices" to "who can survive longer."

At the press conference titled "Ensuring People's Health and Empowering Economic Development" held by the National Healthcare Security Administration on the morning of January 17, it was mentioned that the sixth batch of high-value medical consumables centralized procurement would be conducted in the second half of the year. Additionally, about 20 national alliance procurements with professional characteristics are expected to be carried out at the local level, including traditional Chinese medicine, herbal slices, and high-value consumables.

Subsequently, multiple regions including Fujian, Hunan, Xinjiang, Henan, Guangxi, and Anhui revealed the latest news regarding the 2025 consumables centralized procurement.

Fujian will lead the organization of 1-2 categories of national alliance centralized procurement for medical consumables, vigorously promoting the reform of general consumables procurement at the municipal level. In principle, municipalities with the necessary conditions should undertake at least one task of provincial alliance procurement for general consumables, aiming to reach 800 types and 70 categories of centrally procured medicines and consumables by the end of the year.
Hunan will lead the national joint procurement of high-frequency electric scalpel heads as medical consumables.
Xinjiang will initiate a national participation alliance procurement led by Xinjiang.
Henan has also made it clear that it will actively take on the centralized procurement tasks under the model of "one province leads, national joint procurement."
Guangxi will lead the inter-provincial alliance procurement of traditional Chinese acupuncture instruments, aiming to reach over 900 types and 90 categories of centrally procured medicines and medical consumables by the end of 2025.

With the launch of price reduction procedures for various types of consumables, hitting rock bottom prices and thorough implementation have become the main themes of the medical consumables industry in 2025.

The price of a single cochlear implant has dropped from 200,000 yuan to 50,000 yuan, the lowest price for peripheral vascular stents is only 2,000 yuan, the average price of breast rotary needles has been reduced from 3,000 yuan to 821 yuan, and ultrasonic knife heads and pre-filled catheter flushers, on top of an initial 70% reduction in centralized procurement, have seen an additional average decrease of 12.18%......

These figures not only mean more savings for the medical insurance fund but also mark the end of the era of exorbitant profits for consumables.

However, this is not the end; 2025 will be a crucial turning point for the medical consumables sector, shifting from "unrestrained growth" to "meticulous cultivation." After hitting rock bottom prices, the focus of industry competition will shift from "who can lower prices" to "who can survive longer."

On the morning of January 17, at the National Medical Insurance Administration's press conference themed "Protecting People's Health and Empowering Economic Development," it was mentioned that the sixth batch of high-value medical consumables centralized procurement would be carried out in the second half of the year.

The centralized procurement in 2025 has surpassed the simple goal of cost control, evolving into a survival competition that forces the industry to upgrade. Manufacturers, distributors, and hospitals need to reconstruct their survival logic amidst the constraints of cost, technology, and compliance:

Either achieve extreme cost control, surviving on "penny" profits through scale; or focus on innovation, using technological barriers to gain pricing power; or integrate into the ecosystem, becoming an irreplaceable part of the supply chain.

Because in this transformation, there are no bystanders, only adapters.
