Medical Deviceshttp://www.kaloramainformation.com/Global-Medical-Devices-8186981/
The fifth edition of Kalorama Information’s Global
Market for Medical Devices presents an industry
adjusting to challenges of reimbursement
reductions and new taxes. New product
innovations and mergers were part of the
strategies companies adapted in order to
compete. In the United States, the second year of
collections on the medical device tax began, and
the report describes the impact.
In Europe as well as the United States, reimbursement challenges and the threat
of new legislation loom. Emerging markets again helped to boost revenues
elsewhere, but even some emerging nations saw growth rate reductions. Device
manufacturers responded by boosting innovation and technology, finding new
markets, and buying each other.
As part of the market analysis in this report, the following is included:

Executive Summary
The fifth edition of Kalorama Information’s Global Market for Medical Devices finds a
market with tremendous opportunity for a range of device makers, but also a number of
challenges. In the United States, the second year of collections on the medical device tax began.
In Europe as well as the United States, reimbursement challenges and the threat of new
legislation loom. Emerging markets again helped to boost sagging revenues elsewhere, but even
some emerging nations saw declines. Device manufacturers responded by boosting innovation
and technology, finding new markets, and buying each other.
Because of the broad definition, estimates of medical device markets vary as any item
from a nuclear camera or catheter to a latex glove can be considered a medical device. It is a
scattered market in which hundreds of companies worldwide participate. Despite this, not more
than forty companies earn most of the revenue in the market and much of the revenue is earned
in a few key categories.
The medical device market in terms of revenues is not even half as large as the global
pharmaceutical market, though it sees many more transactions. This is due to pricing, as in
volume terms there are more units sold and more patients are impacted by the device market.
Although the largest component of the market is in the United States, the majority of sales are
non-US, and growth is occurring in other markets. Chapter Six of this report breaks down the
overall market by region.

Global Medical Device Market
TOP COMPANIES
Because of the variety of types of medical devices, there are many competitors. Still
eighteen companies earn most of the global revenue in the device market. Most companies
operate in just a few markets, though the top companies such as J&J, GE Healthcare, Siemens
and Medtronic are multi-billion dollar companies that operate in several categories. There are
thousands of companies making devices in the United States alone, most of these are private
concerns having less than 50 employees. The market share of the top medical device companies
is provided in the following figure.

Major companies are profiled in Chapter Seven of this report. In Chapter Five,
Kalorama has isolated 15 “bellwether” companies based on revenues and also diversity of
medical devices produced. The results of the bellwethers between 2012 and 2013, the
geographic breakout of their sales and their decisions on R&D spending are part of the analysis
for the report’s findings on the market.

MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS
In 2013 and early 2014, key market players were active in acquiring companies, among
these were Boston Scientific, Stryker Corporation, CareFusion, ThermoFisher Scientfic, The
Carlyle Group, and Medtronic. Stryker’s purchase of MAKO Surgical, Zimmer’s purchase of
Biomet and the sale of J&J’s Ortho Clinical Diagnostic Group to the Carlyle Group were among
the larger purchases. Chapter Three of this report focuses on merger activities.
MEDICAL DEVICE TAX
The beginning of 2013 saw the medical device industry make the first payments to the
IRS for the new 2.3% excise tax on all classes of medical devices as part of the 2009 Patient
Protection and Affordable Care Act (referred to in this report as US healthcare reform). Medical
device manufacturers have to date paid an estimated $1 billion to the Internal Revenue Service
for the medical device excise tax, according to the Medical Imaging & Technology Alliance
(MITA), the Advanced Medical Technology Association (AdvaMed) and the Medical Device
Manufacturers Association (MDMA), the tax costing an estimated average of $194 million per
month by device manufacturers in an industry that spends nearly $10 billion in R&D each year.
Net income was broadly impacted in 2013, though the actual amounts vary. Table 1-1
shows the medical device excise tax payment totals of selected industry leaders. Johnson &
Johnson, the largest device company, paid $200 million, which was recorded in selling,
marketing and administrative expenses.

Source: Kalorama Information
Clearly, the amount of money being paid is substantial. The initial feeling within the
industry was that this level of taxation would deny manufacturers opportunities to invest in
R&D, to make capital investments, and to increase staffing. The reality of the tax is reflected in
a survey by the Emergo Group, in which 45% of senior managers indicated that the tax has had a
"very" or "somewhat negative" impact on their business in 2013, while 34% indicated that it had
"no impact."
Though the growth of small players in the market is likely hurt by the tax, Kalorama
Information estimates that the tax impact was 20 to 30% less than the projections of industry
commentators and corporate reports.
Bipartisan support for repeal of the tax is building in both the House of Representatives
and the Senate, according to the Medical Imaging & Technology Alliance (MITA). In the House
and Senate, bipartisan majorities support repeal of the device tax. In March, a coalition of 79
Senators reached across the aisle in a vote to adopt an amendment to the Fiscal Year 2014 Senate
Budget Resolution repealing the medical device tax. Reps. Erik Paulsen (R-MN) and Ron Kind

(D-WI) introduced in the House the “Protect Medical Innovation Act,” which garnered a
bipartisan response that has increased to 253 co-sponsors.
SCOPE AND METHODOLOGY
There are many estimates of the medical device market as a whole that have been
published using various methodologies; export and import sales, unit estimates and price
averaging, but Kalorama Information considers estimates of manufacturer revenues the most
important and valid methodology for business planning. In many of the largest device markets,
Kalorama Information has already conducted studies and has examined manufacturer revenue
estimates, rendering the total market visible. This report was assembled using data from
Kalorama Information's previous medical device reports. Primary and secondary research was
used. Research into company annual reports, trade publications, government and medical
literature was used as a foundation. Interviews with executives at medical device companies
were conducted and are the key source of estimates.
CONCLUSIONS
The following are the major conclusions of the report:
The global market for medical devices was billion dollars in 2013. With
average growth, this should grow to $ billion in 2018.
A majority of companies in Kalorama’s Bellwether index of medical device
companies increased research and developing spending as a percentage of
revenue.
For most device companies, migration from US sales continues. On a revenue
basis, companies earned of their total revenues from United States customers.
The average of our device company index was a % increase in non-US sales,
though some companies were well beyond this average.
The “Rest of World” market (all areas outside of the US, Europe and Asia)
represents % of the world device market. Growth in healthcare spending in

countries such as Brazil, Turkey, South Africa, Chile, Mexico and others drove
the market. Expect more device companies to focus on these import-heavy
markets.
Respiratory Equipment, Catheters, Patient Monitoring and Dental Equipment are
the largest categories of medical devices.
IOLs, stents, molecular tests, and cosmetic products were the most common
categories of new devices approved last year.

Introduction
DEFINITION
Medical devices include any instrument, apparatus, appliance, machine, contrivance,
implant, in-vitro device as well as any accessories or related components that facilitate any or
some of the following functions pertaining to a disease, injury, or condition of handicap:
diagnosis, prevention or monitoring, treatment. The following conditions apply to our definition.
It should be regulated by a state regulatory authority.
It should be intended for application in the prevention, diagnosis, and/or cure of
disease or other conditions such as an injury or a handicap.
It should not achieve any of the above intended applications by chemical action
and/or metabolism activity within or on the body.
REGULATION IN THE US
Classification of Medical Devices
Medical devices are typically classified into three classes based on the risk associated
with them. This classification was originally provided by the US Food and Drug Administration
(US FDA), and similar classifications are followed by major Asian countries such as Japan and
China.
These classifications signify the level of control required to ensure the safety and
effectiveness of the device. Consequently, manufacturers of the different classes need to adhere
21. Two: Introduction

to different levels of regulations and norms, i.e., stringent regulations for higher class of medical
devices:
Class I: This class includes medical devices that pose minimum risk to a patient and are
simpler in design as compared to Class II and Class III medical devices. Class I devices are
classified in the ‘general controls’ category, as specified by the US FDA, and include devices
such as tongue depressors, bedpans, elastic bandages, examination gloves, hand-held surgical
instruments and X-ray film. The manufacturing and distribution of medical device products in
this class generally requires:
Class II: According to the US FDA, Class III devices are subject to ‘special controls’ in
addition to ‘general controls’. These devices require a higher level of safety assurance in terms of
potential injury or other harm to the patient. Devices in this class include X-ray machines,
powered wheelchairs, infusion pumps, surgical drapes and ultrasonic diagnostic devices. In
addition to Class I requirements, the manufacturing and distribution of medical device products
in this class generally entails the following:
Special labeling requirements
Compliance with performance standards
Post-market surveillance
Pre-market approval may be required
Class III: Devices in this class require the highest level of safety and effectiveness
assurance as the potential threat to the patient is highest in their case. Information availability
regarding the safety aspect of these devices is generally limited as compared to Class I and Class
II devices; and these, therefore, require additional safety measures after ‘general controls’ and
‘special controls’. Medical devices in this category include life-supporting or life-sustaining
devices, such as replacement heart valves, implanted cerebellar stimulators, implantable
pacemaker pulse generators, endosseous (intra-bone) implants, etc. In addition to Class I and
Class II requirements, the manufacture and supply of these devices entails the following:
A scientific review to ensure the safety and effectiveness of a device
Pre-market approval (mandatory)
In some countries, a device-tracking system to maintain and update information about the
recipients of the device is necessary for certain Class III devices such as implantable
pacemakers.

In the United States, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requires manufacturers of
clinical devices that may have a negative consequence on the patients’ health with improper use
to prove both the device is safe and it is effective prior to sale. However, some policymakers and
device manufacturers have labeled U.S. device regulation as slow, risk-averse, and expensive.
FDA's Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) is responsible for regulating firms
who manufacture, repackage, relabel, and/or import medical devices sold in the United States.
In addition, CDRH regulates radiation-emitting electronic products (medical and non-
medical) such as lasers, x-ray systems, ultrasound equipment, microwave ovens and color
televisions. Manufacturers (both domestic and foreign) and initial distributors (importers) of
medical devices must register their establishments with the FDA. All establishment registrations
must be submitted electronically unless a waiver has been granted by FDA. All registration
information must be verified annually between October 1st and December 31st of each year. In
addition to registration, foreign manufacturers must also designate a U.S. Agent.
Most class I devices, such as blood pressure monitors are low level-risk and subject only
to “general controls,” Class II devices meet general controls as well as “special controls,” such as
additional labeling requirements. These moderate-risk devices generally pass through the 510(k)
review pathway, which refers to the section of the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act dealing with
premarket notification. In this process, the FDA and the manufacturer rely on similarities
between the device at issue and a previously cleared device.
Products requiring PMAs are Class III devices are high risk devices that pose a
significant risk of illness or injury, or devices found not substantially equivalent to Class I and II
predicate through the 510(k) process. The PMA process is more involved and includes the
submission of clinical data to support claims made for the device. An investigational device
exemption (IDE) allows the investigational device to be used in a clinical study in order to
collect safety and effectiveness data required to support a Premarket Approval (PMA)
application or a Premarket Notification 510(k) submission to FDA. Clinical studies with devices
of significant risk must be approved by FDA and by an Institutional Review Board (IRB) before
the study can begin. Studies with devices of nonsignificant risk must be approved by the IRB
only before the study can begin.
The following table provides information on recent FDA device approvals. Stents, IOLs
and molecular testing were among the larger categories of newly approved devices.

HOSPITAL MARKET UPDATE
Community hospitals include nonfederal, short-term general, state specialty hospitals.
Excluded are hospitals not accessible by the general public such as prison hospitals or college
infirmaries.
Large US-based hospitals benefit from economies of scale. They have lower costs per
patient or per procedure because of volume discounts in purchases and other similar factors.
Therefore, it has been observed that many hospitals have been merging to form a bigger group.
Merged hospitals often find it easier to borrow money and make greater profits because of
decreased competition.

US VERSUS INTERNATIONAL SALES
For the past few years bellwether companies have seen a decline in US sales as they
focus on international markets, especially the emerging BRIC nations. 2012 represented a slight
stay of this trend as the US economy rebounded slightly and European nations began unusually
large healthcare cuts that impacted the industry. 2013 demonstrated that this is a longstanding
trend; US markets declined and most companies continued to seek outside the US markets.
