VIETNAM: The Medical Tourism Plan is a MedTech Investment

Vietnam is strategically moving to put medical tourism on the map via a new Ministry of Health plan (2025–2030). This isn’t just a service push—it’s the clearest policy signal for accelerated medical device sector growth you can get.

Why Global MD Firms Must Look at Vietnam NOW:

  • Policy Mandate: The new plan requires key healthcare hubs (Hanoi, HCMC, Da Nang) to achieve international standards (e.g., JCI). This quality drive creates immediate demand for compliant technology.
  • Cost & Capability: Vietnam offers high-quality care at 30–50% lower costs than regional peers, with proven expertise in high-demand areas (Cardiology, Orthopedics, IVF).
  • Massive Equipment Upgrade: Achieving JCI standardization requires a complete, accelerated overhaul of all medical technology. This creates a non-negotiable, long-term purchasing runway for certified foreign MD manufacturers.

Vietnam has the critical ingredients: low cost, high capability, and now, a strong policy push for international standards.
