Currently, the supply of medical service in China is far not adequate to the demand. Impacted by aging of the population, consumption upgrading, as well as urbanization, demand of medical service is expected to grow rapidly in the future. Most public hospitals, being the focus of Medical System Reform in the next step, are in great need of management improvement. Involvement of social investment would both boost Medical System Reform, and increase supply of medical service. In the mean while, by investing in medical service industry, investors could possibly enrich their portfolio, smooth the fluctuation from economic circles, and enhance risk adjusted return. We are embracing a rare period of investment opportunities in this area. Nevertheless, risks lying in policy, transaction, and management should never be neglected. For strategic investors who are unfamiliar with this area, our suggestion is to establish a platform of medical service industry investment and operate through the platform, transitioning from financial investment to strategic M&A gradually.
