台灣國際醫療專區 若循新加坡模式 能有優勢嗎!
醫院公司化／星國經驗 醫療管制彈性化 【2011/06/23 經濟日報】穿越人潮擁擠的烏節路，百匯集團的伊莉莎白醫院隱身在各家精品名店背後街道，這座醫院外表及內部裝潢並不起眼，在許多新加坡民眾心目中，醫院另一代名詞就是「高貴」。去年6月亞洲各大媒體紛紛報導，大陸知名藝人趙薇已到新加坡生產，她選擇的待產醫院，就是百匯集團旗下醫院。百匯助理副總裁陳行義說，伊莉莎白醫院在新加坡人心目中，一直都是為西方人提供服務的醫院，1995年被地產公司百匯集團收購後，至今在新加坡共有四家醫院。除了直接設立在新加坡的四家醫院，百匯也在全世界43個城市設有分支機構，以協助跨國病人到新加坡就醫。任何一位國際病人，任何時間向百匯各國的分支機構提出醫療詢問，新加坡總部可在24小時內提供回覆，如果是情況較嚴重的病人，更可在48小時內決定前往新加坡就醫、收費等，再經過預約，病人三天內將可以買到機票及飯店住宿。
連線作業 機票掛號一次搞定 陳行義說明，百匯的國際病人可分為兩種，一種是海外直接前來新加坡，占醫院的三成，另外七成為新加坡本地居民，這其中又有三成為居住新加坡的外籍人士。直接由海外前往百匯醫療就醫的病人，又以馬來西亞及印尼人最多，其次是越南、孟加拉及中東等地病人，至於專程從歐美地區飛來新加坡的國際病人則非常少數。「國際醫療」名詞在1980年代並不普及，但已有不少馬來西亞及印尼的華商，陸續前往新加坡就醫，百匯醫療一直是東南亞華人的首選。為了滿足東南亞華人的醫療需求，整個百匯集團1,200位醫生，三成為馬來西亞籍的華人醫生，新加坡政府對於醫療人員管制相對彈性，任何持有美國、英國及澳洲執照的醫生，不論國籍都可以到新加坡開業。根據百匯公布財報，2010年集團營收11.1億星元（約新台幣260億元），年增率15%，去年獲利1.25億星元（約新台幣29.3億元），年增率6%。新加坡旅遊局說明，新加坡2003年起推廣國際醫療，並非單純想要創造商業收入，另一個重點，是為新加坡本地400萬民眾著想。新加坡旅遊局國際醫療保健旅遊處前任處長楊葉振發說，要讓新加坡人獲得更高品質的醫療服務，現有醫院必須繼續成長，光靠400萬人口，無法滿足醫院成長的需求。
多元推廣 醫療項目大幅開放 百匯推廣國際醫療的策略，是執行不少國家所禁止的項目，例如活體肝臟移植，新加坡是全世界唯一允許三等親以外民眾提供活肝捐助，自從開放非親屬進行肝移植，至今已進行了200例以上。自2009年開始，百匯又在伊莉莎白醫院，進行亞洲第一家正式以機械手臂進行微創手術，透過媒體的放送，百匯的國際知名度一次又一次在世界各地傳播。新加坡國際管理學院講師陳立穎說，新加坡政府執行家庭醫生制度，新加坡外籍人口眾多，但並未納入家醫系統，因此百匯醫院就成為在地外籍人口的選擇。陳立穎認為，新加坡在國際上的形象，只要政府開始提倡一項政策，世界各國都相信他們一定做得到。信任感是新加坡推廣國際醫療，最大的支柱力量。
收益穩定 吸引私募基金 醫院成立的上市公司，對投資人具備那些吸引力？德盛安聯大霸基金投資首席傅子平分析，世界上主要上市的醫院公司，多半有穩定投資收益的特色。去年第四季來，國內陸續出現幾檔以醫院為營運主體掛牌公司，包括敏盛醫院創辦人楊敏盛創立盛弘醫藥，大陸醫療設備及服務的金衛醫療，及4月底掛牌的新加坡中醫連鎖診所KY馬光公司。傅子平分析，國際上允許醫院上市的國家，包括泰國、新加坡、印尼、澳洲及德國，德國醫院公司過去三年平均配息率2%，新加坡的萊佛士醫院，去年配息率1.8%，澳洲的醫院公司配息率8.5%最高。總體而言，醫院公司的經營都很穩定，不會為投資人帶來高比率的投資報酬，但也不易受景氣影響。以美國為例，每年CMS調查給付給醫院保險，CMS前年8月公布，2011年的payment rates將下調0.4%，消息公布後，美國不少醫院公司股價應聲下跌，顯示各醫院對保險需求仍相當大。傅子平說，醫院公司配息穩定，去年美國一家私募基金就宣布買下一家醫院公司，看中該醫院比銀行1至2%的利息更高額。帶動私募基金投資醫院的另一主因，是人口老化但醫療資源有限的社會，過去德國一直不斷進行醫院整併，有助於醫院省下更多成本，因此吸引了私募基金前往套利。傅子平舉新加坡為例，每千名居民所享受病床數，2005年為2.81床，2010年降為2.26床，新加坡政府估計到2013年每千名居民享受的病床數目，將降到2.12床。顯示新加坡病床成長速度趕不上人口成長速度，因此讓萊佛士和百匯等醫院公司有擴充規模機會。 （系列四之三）
工研院扮演醫療器材產業發展第二棒角色!
醫療展將登場，工研院快速試製服務中心展多項醫材2011-06-22 【時報】「2011年台灣國際健康暨醫療展」將於6/23~26假台北世貿展覽館一館舉行，經濟部委託工研院成立的「醫療器材快速試製服務中心」今年邁入第二年，將展出與臺大醫院合作開發之「整合型手術主刀及助手升降台」，及與產業界一同研發之「數位手持式眼底攝影機」等。工研院生醫所邵耀華所長指出，工研院「醫療器材快速試製服務中心」 (RPC)定位為醫療器材產業價值鏈中「第二棒」的角色，以「服務」台灣具潛力的醫療器材為主軸、加速產品商品化為職志，並結合各相關法人單位與外部廠商，將「臨床、專利、法規、製造、檢測、查驗、登記、行銷」規劃聯結，建構醫學與工程領域的跨領域對話機制，充分整合國內上、中及下游產業能量，讓來自產、學、研、醫界提出的構想申請逐年快速倍增。腹腔鏡手術已廣泛使用在活體腎捐贈、摘取手術、減肥手術、胃腸瘤手術及大腸癌等手術，過去手術需要長時間站立，造成醫護人員身體上的負擔。「整合型手術主刀及助手升降台」設計開發一台手術用輔助升降裝置，將各設備之腳踏操控板整合於輔助裝置中，不但改善腹腔鏡手術進行中的人因工程，更可以提升醫護人員間的互動默契，達到手術最佳化。過去眼底鏡體積過於龐大、搬運不變，病患須配合眼科檢驗前往檢驗，工研院研發之「數位手持式眼底攝影機」可手持，醫生可輕易到病房診斷眼疾，且可隨時將檢驗資料上傳，供各科醫師共同會診、判讀。從全球電子病歷和遠距照護的趨勢來看，此手持數位化醫療器材的出現，將可方便使用於一般診所或醫院、健診中心以及老人照護機構等，作為相關醫師、護理人員、照護人員和社區義工從事健康檢查與紀錄儀器使用。「發炎性細胞激素磁珠定量免疫分析套件」為工研院與台中榮民總醫院合作開發之免疫分析套件，以「磁性微粒」吸附「發炎性細胞激素」，讓「發炎性細胞激素」快速自檢體中分離，實現醫師快速定量免疫分析的需求。該分析套件能在一小時內完成6項發炎性細胞激素之定量檢測，即時得到診斷結果，較過去約需1~2周才能完成6項發炎性細胞激素之定量檢測大幅縮短時間，免除病患需要重覆門診的不便，亦協助醫師能即早取得報告進行診斷及處置。
