Main Challenges

1. High Competition

– 80% of medical device organizations employ less than 50 people

– Google, Apple, and Microsoft are entering the medical device market

2. Affordable Care Act

As a result of the Affordable Care Act of 2010, physicians keep losing their ability to be final decision makers when it comes to buying medical devices.

• 35% of doctors are employed either by a hospital or in a single or multi-specialty owned by a hospital.
• 14% are employed by a privately owned single or multi-specialty clinic.
• The number of primary care physicians employed by hospitals increased from 10% in 2012 to 20% in 2014.
