In May 2025, the Director of the World Health Organization (WHO) for the Eastern Mediterranean Region (EMRO) stated that Iran is a leading country in expanding its healthcare system and ensuring access to universal health coverage. Hanan Balkhi highly praised the country's achievements in recent years, noting that through the expansion of primary healthcare, increased access to medical care in rural areas, maintenance of high vaccination rates, and reduction in maternal and infant mortality, Iran has become a successful model for emulation in the region, according to the Ministry of Health website.
These statements were made during a meeting with Minister of Health Mohammad-Reza Zaferkandi, which took place on the sidelines of the 78th World Health Assembly (WHA).
The issue of drug and medical equipment production, as well as self-sufficiency in these areas, is one of the government priorities, stated Zaferkandi in March 2025. He emphasized that medicine and medical equipment are two important spheres concerning people's health, adding: 'We strive to achieve self-sufficiency in the supply of medicines and medical equipment,' reported IRNA.
In 2024, the head of the Association of Iranian Medical Equipment Manufacturers and Exporters reported that medical equipment is exported to over 60 countries annually. According to Abdolreza Yakubzadeh, more than 70 percent of medical equipment and 100 percent of standard hospital beds are produced domestically. Furthermore, over 95 percent of specialized Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and Critical Care Unit (CCU) beds, as well as over 85 percent of operating room medical equipment, such as ventilators and other equipment, are manufactured in the country using advanced technologies.
Approximately 600 companies operate in the country that manufacture medical equipment, providing production for about 99 percent of drugs supplied to the domestic market. Medical equipment manufacturers in the country produce and supply over 10,000 types of medical equipment for both domestic and foreign markets. Currently, various types of laboratory equipment are produced at prices significantly lower than comparable foreign goods.
