Vietnam’s present healthcare system combines state and private providers. The majority of the public system is set up in a hierarchical structure, with the Ministry of Health in charge of the central level and province and municipal authorities in charge of the local levels.
The Vietnamese healthcare system incorporates elements of both Eastern and Western medicine. The majority of Vietnamese residents currently have to cover the cost of their own medical care at both public and private institutions. Vietnamese citizens frequently choose to use private hospitals since they are frequently better equipped.
Prior to distribution in Vietnam, all medical devices that reach the market must be registered. The Health Service Department oversees and grants registration for class A devices, while the Ministry of Health does the same for class B, C, and D devices.
Importantly, good manufacturing practices (GMP) certificates or certificates of pharmaceutical products, as well as marketing authorization (MA) licences, are required for both domestic and imported medical equipment (CPP).
The Vietnam Medical Devices market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
