4. The Physician Preference Items industry is approximately $30B. This is projected to grow above 8% per year, which is driven by the Baby Boomer generation. Surgeons manage 80% of a hospital’s PPI surgical devices budget. Hospitals are under considerable pricing pressures from insurance companies and the government to lower costs. As a result, surgeons are realizing pay increases of only 2% per year. Also, hospitals are no longer buying the surgeons recommended surgical equipment and implants to perform their gifted surgeries on the severely injured and people near death. As a result, the top surgeons in the country are moving to other hospitals that can afford to perform the surgeries with the latest andcutting edge of surgical implants on the marketplace.
