Posted by Sound familiar? Unlike the U.S. plan that will hurt some companies as the government tries to save money to pay for the added coverage, it looks like the Chinese plan should be a gold mine for most health-care companies, with China’s health-care spending expected to jump 38% this year.
China Traditional Medical
Let’s take a look at a few potential beneficiaries of that increased spending:
- Serial acquirer American Oriental Bioengineering (NYSE: AOB), which sells traditional Chinese medicine, wants to become the Johnson & Johnson (NYSE: JNJ) or Abbott Labs (NYSE: ABT) health-care conglomerate of China.
- Medical device maker Mindray Medical (NYSE: MR) expanded outside of China with its acquisition of Datascope, but still derived 43% of its revenue from sales in its homeland in the fourth quarter of last year.
- 3SBio (Nasdaq: SSRX) makes knockoffs of biotech drugs. President Obama wants to allow these so-called follow-on biologics in the U.S. to lower costs, and I don’t see why they won’t be in higher demand as China expands.
- Just like the U.S., China is gearing up to digitize medical records, and IBM (NYSE: IBM) looks ready to feed that need for 1s and 0s.
- Molecular diagnostics maker China Medical Technologies (NYSE: CMED) looks poised for growth, as rural China gains access to hospitals that diagnose medical conditions.
As China develops, drugmakers and medical device makers from all over the world will benefit from increased medical spending, but companies based in China will likely see the largest growth. Investing in China may be scary, but it’s likely to pay off in the long run.

I love reading your blog. You seem like a natural in sharing your experiences. I am starting my blog as well, do you think only natural writers can have something to share?
Sorry for being off topic, but I am just starting my website/blog. Why did you choose Wordpress over blogger or any other blog program? I am trying to figure out the best way, since I am not a techy.
I must say, I thought this was a pretty interesting read when it comes to this topic. Liked the material. . . . .
I’ve been earning my living on the net since 2003. I remember the first sites I made, and when I made my first pennies. lol I was thrilled!!! I’ve recently found a new way to get tons of buyers to my sites for almost free. I use these cheap visitors to sell some goods to and am doing really well with it. Read about it here if you want to at cha ching. It helped me go from $100 a day on a few sites to a net of $300++ pretty fast.
