Industry revenue is expected to grow at a CAGR of 16.6% over the five years through 2024, to total $56.2 billion, including a 10.1% increase in the current year. Increasing personal disposable income, expanding medical insurance coverage, the increasing number of ageing people and growing health consciousness in China have driven industry development over the period. In the five years to 2024, the number of total healthcare visits is estimated to increase at a CAGR of 0.7%. Health clinics are set to make profit of about 4.7% of industry revenue on average in 2024.Industry revenue is forecast to grow at a CAGR of 8.0% over the five years through 2029, to total $82.7 billion. In recent years, the government added more types of medicine into the healthcare system and permitted bulk purchasing of medicine. As a result, medicine sales are forecast to decline as a share of industry revenue in the future. The central government is projected to further improve China's healthcare system over the next five years, including investing in new technologies and technology upgrades, especially for small clinics. Over 65% of health clinics are small or village clinics that are not equipped with up-to-date medical instruments and apparatus, which significantly restricts patient treatment levels. The government will likely also focus on upgrading the country's health infrastructure, particularly in rural areas, which will benefit the large number of village clinics operating in the industry.
