The majority of medical device purchases in Norway are made through importers and distributors. The public sector accounts for about 95% of medical purchases. Procurement can be made by either local government or by individual hospitals. The Rikshospitalet and Oslo universities both issue their own tenders. Smaller hospitals and clinics often make purchases direct from suppliers.

Although Norway is not a member of the European Union, it has transposed medical device directives into national law, ensuring that domestically manufactured devices do not have compliance issues within the EU. As the domestic market is relatively small, yet wealthy, much of domestic production is exported.

Despite remaining outside the EU, Norway has one of the strongest economies in the region. Economic policy is a combination of free market activity and government intervention within key areas, such as the oil and petroleum sectors.
