    Internet medical treatment is a new type of modern medical treatment method that applies modern computer technology and information technology to medical treatment.
    It is the development direction and management goal of public medical treatment
    .
    In recent years, the scale of the Internet medical market has been expanding
    .
    In 2015, the scale of the pharmaceutical e-commerce market was 44.
    7 billion yuan, and in 2020 it has reached 187.
    6 billion yuan
    .
    Following this trend, the industry predicts that the pharmaceutical e-commerce market will reach 558.
    8 billion yuan in 2025
    .
    It is worth noting that, in the context of the continuous improvement of the Internet medical market, related companies are also ushering in more development opportunities
    .
    Recently, Alibaba Health released an interim results announcement for the 2021 fiscal year
    .
    The announcement showed that for the six months ended September 30, 2021, half-year revenue was 9.
    36 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 30.
    7%; of which, the prescription drug business revenue increased by 127.
    3% year-on-year
    .
    Ali Health stated that the increase in revenue was mainly due to the rapid growth of its pharmaceutical self-operated business
    .
    It is understood that the self-operated business of Alibaba Health includes B2C retail, related advertising business and B2B centralized procurement and distribution business
    .
    According to the announcement, its self-operated business revenue has reached 8.
    119 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 34.
    5%.
    Alibaba Health's self-operated pharmacy accounted for 64% of its drug revenue, and its prescription drug business revenue increased by 127.
    3% year-on-year
    .
    As of September 30, 2021, the annual active consumers of online self-operated stores reached 90 million
    .
    From the above, it can be seen that after Ali Health has set foot in the medical and health field, it has begun to achieve outstanding results
    .
    In fact, in recent years, with the popularization of smart phones and the continuous deepening of "Internet +", more and more technology companies and pharmaceutical companies have set foot in the medical and health field, and many have achieved good results
    .
    For example, on August 24, JD Health released an interim results announcement for the first June of 2021
    .
    The announcement stated that in the first half of 2021, the company's business continued to maintain steady growth, with total revenue of RMB 13.
    6 billion in the first half of the year, a year-on-year increase of 55.
    4%.

    .
    In addition, as of June 30, 2021, the number of annual active users in the past 12 months reached 109 million, a net increase of over 18.
    8 million compared to the number of annual active users in the past 12 months as of December 31, 2020
    .
    The analysis believes that with the development of Internet technology, the Internetization of drug marketing has become a trend, and the normalization of epidemic prevention and control has accelerated the trend of Internetization of drug circulation
    .
    In the future, in this context, with China’s accelerating entry into an aging society, the increase in the population of chronic diseases and the continuous expansion of demand for medical and health, as well as the continuous promotion of relevant favorable policies, the industry predicts that the market scale of China’s Internet industry will continue to grow rapidly.
    , And the performance of related companies will continue to grow
    .
    However, it should be noted that with the advent of the era of "strong supervision" in Internet medical care, the industry expects a new round of changes in the industry
    .
    For example, on November 26, the "Internet Diagnosis and Treatment Regulations (Draft for Comment)" (referred to as "Regulations") issued by the National Health Commission will complete the solicitation of opinions
    .
    It is reported that on the basis of fully affirming and encouraging Internet medical care, the rules aim to promote the industry to enter a virtuous circle of innovation and regulation
    .
    Therefore, the industry believes that while the rules will bring a clear development direction for the Internet medical industry, it may also trigger a new round of survival of the fittest
