张英 医疗反腐风暴渐渐平息，医疗设备经销商却未能放松，他们面临更大的考验——集采。 11月，多位医疗设备经销商找到张震，想聊聊转型的可能。几年前，当安徽、福建率先开展医疗设备省 级集采时，张震就决定陆续放弃医疗设备经销业务，现在已转型到投资行业。 医疗设备集采最初于2020年开始在安徽、福建施行，不过此后几年跟进的省份较少，直至近一年来情况 出现变化——据经济观察报统计，全国至少已有14个省份开展医疗设备集采。 医疗设备包括常见的超声、CT、数字X线（DR）、呼吸机，也包括一般人不太了解的磁共振（MR）、 血管造影系统、手术机器人、放疗设备等。 与药品和耗材直接用于治疗患者不同，医疗设备多是医生诊断的辅助工具，相当于医生的眼睛。 患者对医疗设备的价格感知较弱，它的价格直接影响到的是医疗机构的采购成本，进而常以间接的方式 影响患者的检查等费用。 在2023年开始的医疗反腐风暴中，医疗设备采购中存在的贪腐受到高度关注。多位受访者认为，这是近 一年来多省陆续开展医疗设备集采的重要背景，未来医疗设备集采会持续扩围。 这场集采浪潮正重塑医疗设备万亿市场，那些曾价值上百万元、千万元的大块头设备在这场集采中不断 刷新最低价 ...
