Healthcare IT Market Is Likely To Witness Huge Growth
Healthcare IT Industry
The global healthcare IT market size is projected to reach USD 1,834.3 billion by 2030, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.8% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The rising demand for advanced healthcare IT solutions, particularly Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems, combined with the increased usage of smartphones and the growing necessity for remote patient monitoring to enhance out-of-hospital care, are key factors driving the overall market growth.
For example, a 2021 article published in the Journal of Medical Internet Research, titled 'Adoption of EHRs in China over the Past Decade: A Comparative Study with the U.S.', highlights the significant increase in EHR adoption in both the United States and China. However, the rates of adoption differ between the two countries, mainly due to varying strategic approaches at the national level. Hospitals in the U.S. demonstrated an annual EHR adoption rate of 9.6%, whereas in China, the rate stood at 6.1%. In terms of numbers, an average of 534 hospitals in the U.S. adopted EHRs each year, while in China, the figure was significantly higher, with approximately 1,500 hospitals adopting EHR systems annually, emphasizing a greater effort and momentum in EHR adoption in China.
A global rise in healthcare spending is also driving the demand for the implementation of Internet of Things (IoT) solutions in the healthcare sector. According to estimates published by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2020, global healthcare expenditures surged significantly, accounting for approximately 11% (USD 9 trillion) of the global Gross Domestic Product (GDP). The healthcare industry is undergoing a paradigm shift from a fee-for-service model to a value-based care model, where reimbursement is increasingly linked to treatment outcomes. This shift is further intensified by the rising pressure to reduce healthcare costs globally, as healthcare expenses are increasing at a pace that outstrips economic growth.
Technological advancements in healthcare IT are creating numerous opportunities to reduce healthcare spending by enhancing the quality of care delivery and clinical outcomes. Timely data aggregation allows for best possible interventions, while increased patient engagement through chronic care management portals leads to improved health outcomes and cost efficiencies. Additionally, the application of IoT in clinical trials presents an opportunity to streamline trial processes, simplify endpoint capture, and ultimately reduce associated costs. Remote patient monitoring solutions are instrumental in managing non-critical patients in home settings, thus reducing the need for hospital admissions and improving hospital workflow efficiency. Moreover, IoT-based solutions enhance clinical operations through asset tracking and improved data capturing, contributing further to significant cost savings across healthcare organizations.
Market players are increasingly focusing on innovative product development strategies to maintain competitiveness. Notably, companies are integrating cutting-edge technologies such as big data analytics, the Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), and Machine Learning (ML) algorithms into their existing healthcare solutions, thereby enhancing healthcare and medical processes. For instance, in April 2023, eClinicalWorks announced the integration of its Practice Management and EHR solutions with cognitive services, including ChatGPT and machine learning models from the Azure OpenAI Service, to elevate its technological offerings. This strategic initiative followed eClinicalWorks’ major investment of USD 100 million into Microsoft Azure cloud services, providing the company with access to the latest innovations available within the Microsoft Cloud ecosystem.
