Our researcher studied the historical data for years, with 2021 as the base year and 2022 as the estimated year, and produced drivers, trends, and challenges for the E-Prescribing Market. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the demand for the e-prescribing market has been impacted significantly, but a holistic analysis of drivers will help in predicting exact demands and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
Key E-Prescribing Market Driver
The increasing need for automation across different healthcare departments is one of the key factors driving the global e-prescribing market growth. The average human lifespan is increasing with the improving quality of healthcare services. With the increasing lifespan, the rise in prevalence of chronic diseases, and the growth oF the global population, the number of patients and the time involved in treatment are also increasing. Moreover, the growing awareness of health-related issues and the rising inclination for healthy living are prompting the general population to keep a check on their health. However, there is a dire need to reduce the per-patient time spent by a doctor and increase the efficiency of treatment. IT (information technology) plays a significant role in automating the treatment process right from the admission of patients, data collection on their medical history, storage of the collected data, examining patients, creating transcripts of doctors' comments and medication instructions, pharmaceutical workflows, and after-treatment follow-ups to the transfer of patients and their relevant medical records. Such factors will create demand for e-prescribing, which will positively impact the global Electronic Prescribing Market growth during the forecast period.
Key E-Prescribing Market Trend
The increasing use of Internet-enabled mobile devices in healthcare-related IT will fuel the global e-prescribing market growth. Cell phones, tablets, laptops, and wearables are being used to note down the regular vital parameters of patients and maintain their logs. Doctors and nurses check patient details directly using mobile devices before administering medication or doing a procedure. In addition, communication applications on mobile devices allow healthcare service providers to impart knowledge on patient care to the family members of the patient. There are applications that can automate audio transcription, such as Otter, Temi records, and others. These applications can be used to record patient history with minimal errors. As a result, there is reduced paperwork, and the information on patient history can enhance healthcare efficiency. Reduced paperwork not only frees up physicians' time but also puts the patients' information at their disposal. Overall, the use of mobile devices in healthcare is improving physician performance and ensuring better patient care. Such factors will create ample opportunities for the growth of the global Electronic Prescribing Market during the forecast period.
Key E-Prescribing Market Challenge
Privacy and data security concerns are the major challenges to the global e-prescribing market's growth. Maintaining security and confidentiality is an integral part of the e-prescribing ecosystem to build trust among healthcare providers and patients. There are federal and state guidelines already established for maintaining the security and privacy of e-prescribing solutions. For instance, in the US, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPPA) of 1996 includes privacy standards that ensure the protection of patients' medical records, which are shared with any third parties, such as doctors, healthcare providers, and health plan providers. The channels of communication used by healthcare professionals or healthcare organizations and patients for providing remote services must comply with the guidelines set by legislation such as HIPPA. Unauthorized access to medical data, data theft, data breaches, and hacking by unauthorized people or hackers, and the loss of data during the transmission of patient data on cloud-based networks in the e-prescribing market are major threats that are expected to hamper the uptake of e-prescribing services to a certain extent. Such factors will thus hamper the growth of the global Electronic Prescribing Market during the forecast period.

COVID-19 Impact and Recovery Analysis
The outbreak of COVID-19 adversely affected all countries in North America, especially the US. As of December 22, 2021, more than 50.56 million COVID-19 cases were reported in the US. A rise in the number of COVID-19 cases in the first quarter of 2020 and early 2021 led to partial lockdowns in several countries, including Canada and Mexico. The lockdowns across many countries had a minimal effect on the growth of the regional E-Prescribing Market in 2020. Moreover, the demand for e-prescribing increased as people started maintaining social distancing. This also increased the demand for virtual medical consultation and e-prescribing systems. Thus, the COVID-19 pandemic boosted the growth of the e-prescribing market in North America in 2020. The trend is expected to continue during the forecast period.
