Chanllenge: Patient volume is increasing slower • Chinese GDP growth declines • Local financial revenue drop • The capacity of Health Insurance decreased.
Chinese Medical Reform • Hospitals in counties and towns are enhanced by the governments -- Most of patients will first visit county hospitals; -- Renewed equipments and facilities in county and town hospitals to cover 80% diseases
Challenge: Chinese Health Insurance policy • 75% of medical costs reimbursement in basic-level hospitals. • 45% in He Eye Hospitals.
Solution 1: HECS Model Advantage • HECS provides affordable, acceptable, continuous and high-quality eye service reduce the burden of patients and governments patient volume keep growing revenue increase. • Pricing advantage.For Example : cataract surgery (IOL) in 2011
