Viewpoint: planning upgrade and continuous implementation
A new journey of traditional Chinese medicine and a new main line of investment. Since the release of the "14th five year plan" for the development of pharmaceutical industry on January 30, 2022, the "14th five year plan" for the development of traditional Chinese medicine is a further guidance for the traditional Chinese medicine industry. The policy continues to change from planning to implementation. There is an obvious positive trend in the drug end, payment end and hospital end, and there is a huge space for the expansion of the industry. It is worth noting that the 13th five year plan for the construction of traditional Chinese medicine culture in December 2016 was issued by the State Administration of traditional Chinese medicine, while the 14th five year plan for the development of traditional Chinese medicine was issued by the State Council. We believe that this shows that the state attaches great importance to traditional Chinese medicine and has a different impact on each segment of the traditional Chinese medicine industry:
① innovative traditional Chinese medicine / classic prescriptions: usher in a period of accelerated growth. The plan's support for innovative drugs includes strengthening the training of innovative talents, continuously optimizing the registration management at the application end, and continuously improving the medical insurance policy at the payment end. We believe that with the support of the above policies, the approval of innovative traditional Chinese medicine will continue to accelerate. It is an obvious positive signal that the number of new traditional Chinese medicine approved in 2021 will reach a new high in recent years. By 2025, innovative traditional Chinese medicine is expected to usher in explosive growth, and pediatric drugs will also be further supported.
② brand traditional Chinese medicine: supply and demand resonate, and the sea benefits well. Driven by consumption upgrading, brand traditional Chinese medicine with medical and health care attributes has maintained a rapid growth trend on the demand side. We believe that the plan encourages the production and R & D of traditional Chinese medicine health products such as health food and formula food for special medical purposes, which will be further support on the supply side, and traditional Chinese medicine health care related products are expected to achieve a resonance between supply and demand; In addition, brand traditional Chinese medicine will also be favored by traditional Chinese medicine because of its strong brand attribute.
③ prepared pieces of traditional Chinese medicine / traditional Chinese medicine: the industry is gradually standardized, and the leaders benefit. The state will conduct stricter and standardized supervision on the whole industrial chain of traditional Chinese medicine, and have higher quality requirements for the planting and breeding of traditional Chinese medicine and the processing methods of traditional Chinese medicine. We believe that leading companies with integrated production advantages and guaranteed product quality will benefit.
④ traditional Chinese medicine medical service: policy support and industry expansion. At present, the medical service industry of traditional Chinese medicine is still in the early stage of development, and the competition pattern is relatively scattered. We believe that TCM medical service institutions will usher in new industry norms. With the strengthening of TCM medical personnel training, the industry is expected to expand rapidly.
