Elevated Healthcare Expenditure in Emerging Economies to Boost Market in Coming Years
Healthcare budget allocations help countries strengthen workforces and improve this sector's productivity, thereby contributing to economic performance. Rapid economic developments allow developing countries to raise their healthcare expenditures, enabling them to establish better medical service infrastructure by leveraging technological advancements. The Government of India, through its National Health Authority agency, implemented Ayushman Bharat – Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (AB-PMJAY) in 2019. This scheme has facilitated free/affordable treatment for cancer patients in the country. As per the data published by the National Health Authority of India, ~470,133 cancer cases were treated under AB-PMJAY in 2019. Such initiatives are likely to provide lucrative opportunities for companies in the blood transfusion diagnostics market to introduce advanced technologies for the blood transfusion diagnostics market in Asia Pacific.
Market Overview
China dominated the blood transfusion diagnostics market in Asia Pacific in 2022. The market growth in China is attributed to the increased use of advanced technologies in blood-related diagnoses, followed by a surge in the number of blood donation camps and blood banks in the country. The nation has a blood donation law in place that allows voluntary unpaid blood donation, and the donated blood can only be used for clinical practice. China's National Health Commission recorded 15.53 million blood donations in 2020, despite the pandemic-related restrictions. This figure is 40-times more than that recorded in 1998. According to Xinhua news, from January to April 2021, 5.12 million blood donations were registered nationwide. Therefore, the increasing number of blood donations for clinical use leads to high demand for blood transfusion diagnostics to screen the blood groups.
