IMA offers support for US Medical Devices entering the UK
Why come to the UK?
• The NHS is the World’s largest publicly funded healthcare system with 61 million patients and a spend of $175bn per annum.
• The NHS is actively looking for new technologies through the National Institute of Clinical Excellent (NICE) Medical Technologies Programme (MTP) and the Diagnostics Assessment Programme (DAP).
• The UK offers a quick regulatory system for CE Marking to speed time to market.
• The UK medical devices market is growing from $9.6bn in 2013 to $13.7bn by 2018 as the NHS looks for new, less invasive, lower cost and better outcome solutions.
• The NHS has a major productivity challenge and products that save money have a huge opportunity provided they are presented in the proper manner.
