The market is experiencing rapid growth, driven by the increasing digitalization of healthcare and robust IT and telecommunications infrastructure. Professional services segment, including ambulatory surgical centres segment, hospitals, and healthcare units, are increasingly adopting Web-based EHR and client server-based EHR systems. This trend is propelled by the rising prevalence of chronic diseases and the need to reduce paperwork. The integration of big data analytics in acute segment and post-acute segment, such as ambulatory care and rehabilitation centers, enhances patient's healthcare records management. Advanced features like computerized physician order entry, lab systems, radiology systems, and pharmacy systems streamline clinical documentation of health history, medicines, and allergies, fostering the adoption of acute EHR, ambulatory EHR, and post-acute EHR in advanced healthcare facilities. Our researchers analyzed the market research and growth data with 2023 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
Government initiatives supporting EHR adoption is a major driver fueling the market growth. The implementation of EHR in the healthcare industry is being promoted and supported by various initiatives and regulations promulgated by the governments of different countries. Owing to government support, healthcare systems find it easy to implement EHR systems, as well as get financial support, which removes the associated financial burden.
For instance, in the UK, the National Health Services (NHS) has converted all the documentation processes into digitized forms and continues to promote them in the different states of the EU. Similarly, the NHS Long Term Plan was published in January 2019, which focuses on improving the system while setting critical priorities that will support digital transformation. In addition to this, various region-specific initiatives are promoting digital healthcare services. Owing to all these initiatives by governments, the market is expected to grow during the forecast period.
The growing use of connected devices and technologies is a major trend influencing the market. The growing use of the IoT and connected medical devices is another major trend in the industry that would drive the growth of the market during the forecast period. In the healthcare industry, the IoT helps in bridging the gap between physical and digital data sources by monitoring patients in real-time. IoT infrastructure helps in improving accessibility to services, reducing the operational burden on healthcare facilities, and supporting the development of digital ecosystems in healthcare organizations.
The rising use of connected medical devices has increased the number of data sources and the amount of data generated. Device manufacturers and organizations are focusing on improving their network security, with the increasing use of cloud-based infrastructure. This is compelling hospitals and clinics to adopt EHR to integrate external and wearable medical devices and optimally collect data for better assimilation and visibility.
Rising data security and privacy concerns are major hindrances to the market growth. The increase in the number of cyberattacks in the industry has raised considerable concerns over privacy and data protection among players in the industry, including hospitals, clinics, and insurance companies. With the integration of data-generating devices into healthcare systems and the growing availability of data from health insurance companies and hospitals in a centralized place, healthcare organizational information and patient data have become vulnerable to cyberattacks.
The current trend toward the digitalization of healthcare workflows and the maintenance of electronic patient records has seen a paradigm shift in the healthcare industry. While medical data is key to improving the quality of healthcare, gaining insights, and reducing healthcare costs, security, and privacy issues are restricting the healthcare industry from adopting many advanced technologies.
