Latin America Biomaterials in Healthcare Market Executive Summary

Total spending in Latin American regions like Argentina and Brazil is driven by large shares of out-of-pocket and private voluntary insurance expenditures; whereas publicly mandated and supported financing in Chile and Uruguay dominates the composition of the health sector. Several Latin American countries like Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay, and Chile spend at levels observed in universal coverage systems of high-income countries, which typically spend between 8% to 11% of their GDP on health.

The cost of healthcare in places such as Mexico, Columbia, and Panama is significantly less than in the US, despite offering excellent quality of care. Compared to the US, medical procedures in Mexico and Costa Rica can save you 36% – 89% and 44% – 89%, respectively.

The region is home to more than 18,000 hospitals, and Latin America offers plenty of choices for healthcare. In fact, one shocking Latin American healthcare statistic is that Brazil is home to more hospitals than in the US alone, with 6,451 hospitals in 2021. Additionally, 42.6% of the top hospitals in Latin America are located in Columbia. The best hospitals in Latin America are located in the larger cities, while facilities in remote and rural areas often do not suffice

To develop universal health care, deal with medical emergencies, and encourage healthier populations, access to high-quality, reasonably priced, and suitable health products is essential.

Without medical devices, it would be impossible to do regular medical procedures like bandaging a damaged ankle, diagnosing HIV/AIDS, implanting an artificial hip, or performing any type of surgery. Medical gadgets are utilized by laypeople at home, paramedical workers and clinicians at outlying clinics, optometrists, dentists, and healthcare professionals in cutting-edge medical facilities, for screening and prevention, as well as in palliative care. These medical technologies are employed in the diagnosis and treatment of acute and chronic illnesses, as well as in the support of persons with disabilities.

In today's healthcare, biomaterials are crucial. They are utilized in medical applications to improve, replace, or support damaged tissue or a biological function. They can be natural or synthetic. A biomaterial can be made from materials such as metals, ceramics, plastic, polymers, and even biological cells and tissues. They have a wide range of uses, including in drug delivery systems, medical implants (such as heart valves, stents, grafts, artificial joints, ligaments, and tendons), and ways to assist the healing of human tissues (such as sutures and clips). The prevalence of cardiovascular disorders is on the rise, implantable device demand is increasing, and governmental and non-governmental organizations are providing more funding for the development of innovative biomaterials, all of which are contributing factors to the market growth for these materials.

Market Size and Key Findings

The Latin America Biomaterials in Healthcare Market size is at around US $ 8.18 Bn in 2021 and is projected to reach US $ 14.61 Bn in 2030, exhibiting a CAGR of 12.3% during the forecast period.

Market Dynamic

Market Growth Drivers Analysis

Over the past few years, biomaterials have become more in demand and used in a variety of medical applications. The development of innovative biomaterials is being supported by investments, funding, and grants from a number of government agencies and academic institutions. For instance, Drexel University awarded the National Science Foundation $200,000 in March 2018 to support research on the impact of macrophage behaviour control by biomaterials on biomaterial vascularization. Such research and funding initiatives should encourage the creation of novel biomaterials, opening up a wide range of potential for the market's expansion.

Market Restraints

Before any new biomaterials can be approved for marketing, it must be shown that it is both safe and effective. The FDA has established tight criteria and restrictions for the approval procedure in the US. Implantable pacemakers, stents, and heart valves are examples of biomaterial-based goods that are categorized by the FDA as Class III devices, which are those that carry the greatest risk of sickness or harm. As a result, the premarket approval application procedure is used for these products (the most stringent type of device marketing application).
