Analysis of non-government awards on medical technology achievements in China / 中华医院管理杂志

ABSTRACT

A deep analysis of the present 26 non-government awards on medical technology achievements was made to probe into setbacks in access to such awards.The findings include lack of independence due to the semi-official nature,tight budget caused by limited funding sources,variety of award sizes due to lack of levels,less corporate involvement to result in less sponsors,and lack of international awards due to unsatisfactory international awareness.The authors recommend such optimal paths as laws and regulations to regulate such awards to be hosted by legal persons,incentives for more enterprises participation to make the awards a public highlight among enterprises,control over the size and types of such awards for better branding,and greater efforts in international collaboration to make international awards.
