Medical network - on November 28, recently, total bureau of national food drug safety, director of the institute of economics, southern medical Lin Jianning at the 28th national conference, medicine economic information is expected to medical electricity average gross margin of 17.6% last year, the average rate of 23.1%, according to the calculated average profit margin of 5.5%.
According to the daily economic news "reporter understanding, although most of the electricity without crack problem of profit, but the pharmaceutical enterprises to explore online pharmacies enthusiasm unabated. National food administration of drug safety database according to the latest figures, a total of 598 online selling medicine pharmaceutical companies have licenses, an increase of 69 at the end of last year.
A medium-sized chain pharmacies in guangdong general manager said when accepting a reporter to interview, drug sales is inevitable trend, talk at present is not profit, but how to gain a foothold in this round of the new mode.
Online pharmacies loss serious
On November 24, ali health released as of September 30, 2016, a total of 6 months interim results, achieve revenue 055 million yuan, up 220.0% from a year earlier, attributable to the parent company has a loss of about 102 million yuan.
In fact, ali health bureau is the losses of medical electrical contractor a microcosm of the collective. Reporters from the state administration of food drug safety database query that ended November 27, 598 pharmaceutical enterprise qualification for Internet drug trade, at the end of the number is 529. But only a handful of truly profitable.
According to some medical electrical business revenue data of listed companies, from January to June, taian hall (002433, SZ) kang love to revenue of 641 million yuan, ranked first for the net income of 7.21 million yuan; Kyushu tong (600998, SH) 's good pharmacists net profit of 4.79 million yuan. In nine of the listed company investment or holding medical electrical contractor, only five profitable, are in the millions of level.
"Several top pharmaceutical electricity from years of continuing losses began to gradually realize the profit, but medical electricity is still some distance away from the scale profit stage." The drugstore, general manager said, the electricity system has not established a sustainable and replicable profit model, countries put a stop to the third party platform of pharmaceutical retail business also affect the industry.
Lin Jianning think, medicine electricity losses increase are the main reasons for the following reasons: one is to participate in enterprise increase, excessive competition lead to industry profit margins decline; 2 it is prescription drug sales policy has not let go, medicine, electricity cannot get drug retail half of prescription drug market share; Three is paid no breakthrough.
In spite of this, but Lin Jianning still think, the next step to attach great importance to the development of medicine, electricity, don't look down on electricity the impact on the entity pharmacy.
If making money is not important now
According to the institute of medicine economic south network monitoring center to release of the China's Internet medical information and transaction monitoring report (2016), online pharmacies in China last year sales scale is 14.42 billion yuan, up 85.11% from a year earlier. This is the online pharmacy breakthrough billions scale for the first time in nearly five years.
The deputy director of the institute of medicine economic south ZongYunGang said, more and more consumers begin to accept the Internet to buy drugs and medical devices, expected this year online pharmacies can reach sales of 28.5 billion yuan. But, at present in the Internet selling medicine qualification of enterprise, and about 25% is not online (or access failure).
For the industry believe that the factors which restrict the development of the medical electrical contractor, ZongYunGang said that at present there has been a breakthrough, health online payment prescription outflow may be let go after setting a certain threshold. At the same time, the network sale drug release is a trend, but there will be a corresponding method to carry out the regulation.
In the more medical electrical business explorer view, at this stage cannot earn money is not so important.
Tasly group, general manager of electricity WenXiaoLing previously said publicly that discuss the nature of medical electric business to earn money is to discuss the value and the whole industry sales charge redistribution problem. Electricity is not to earn money at present stage, the main reason is the value of medical electricity now is accumulated flow, and then do service. If the future industrial enterprises directly through the platform to build consumer education, originally assigned to the intermediate links can be distributed to other value platform.
Compared with medicine and electricity is still lack of temperature, the medicine retail market growth is already slowing. According to Lin Jianning, in the first three quarters of this year to pharmaceuticals market sales of 1.128 trillion yuan, year-on-year growth fell to 11% from 11% last year, "the bidding price, public hospitals to cancel the drug addition, the influence of drug costs rein in growth, the drugs terminal sales growth has slowed."
Lin Jianning predicted that in 2017 China's pharmaceutical industry sales revenue is expected to be up 13% from a year earlier, but drug terminal market sales growth is obviously decline, only 7.6%.
In his view, the two key economic data appear deviation, and pharmaceutical economy now faces a series of new problems and contradictions, "is the speed issue on these appearances, but essentially reflects the issues of the supply structure. The key of the development of pharmaceutical industry in the future will rely on innovation to lead." |
