The Medical Device Market: Slovakia

In 2011, the Slovak market for medical equipment and supplies is estimated at US$500 million, or US$92 per capita. The market dipped in 2009, but avoided the large contraction seen elsewhere in the EU, and remains one of Europe's fastest-growing markets. It is expected that the medical device market will continue to expand at a rate of 10.2% per annum, to be valued at US$811 million, or US$152 per capita, by 2016.

The Slovak Republic is geographically well-placed in central Europe, bordering the Czech Republic, Poland, Ukraine, Hungary and Austria. The capital is Bratislava. The population is estimated at 5.4 million in 2011 and is ageing at a steady rate, in common with other European countries. Slovakia joined the EU in May 2004 and adopted the euro as its currency in January 2009.

Funding for healthcare in Slovakia is principally through the health insurance system. The Slovak healthcare system is still very much in the public sector, although the majority of pharmacies and health spas are now privately-owned. Slovakia spends a relatively high proportion of GDP on healthcare, estimated at 9.1% in 2011.

Around 85% of the medical device market is supplied by imports. These are largely supplied from Germany and other western European countries. The country has a well-established export industry focusing on areas such as dentistry.
