These diseases are often caused by unhealthy lifestyles, such as poor diets, insufficient physical activity, and tobacco use.
For instance, CVDs alone cause 17.9 million deaths annually, making it a leading cause of non-communicable diseases (NCDs). In response to the increasing burden of chronic diseases, the healthcare services industry is undergoing significant transformations. Patient consumerism is driving the demand for quality care and engagement. Thus, such factors are driving the growth of the market during the forecast period.
Rise in adoption of telemedicine in healthcare sector is the key trend in the market. The market has undergone substantial evolution, primarily driven by the growing adoption of telehealth or telemedicine. Telehealth refers to the utilization of digital communication and technology to deliver remote clinical healthcare services. This innovative approach has gained significant traction, offering numerous advantages to both healthcare providers and patients.
Moreover, one of the primary reasons for the widespread acceptance of telehealth is the enhanced accessibility to healthcare services. Telehealth bridges the gap for patients in geographically remote or underserved regions, allowing them to consult healthcare professionals remotely, thereby eliminating the need for physical travel. Thus, such trends will shape the growth of the market during the forecast period.
Increasing healthcare costs is the major challenge that affects the growth of the market. The escalating expenses in the healthcare services sector pose significant challenges to patient access, quality care, and the long-term sustainability of healthcare systems worldwide. According to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), US healthcare spending reached approximately USD 4.5 trillion or USD 13,493 per person in 2022, marking a 4.1% increase from the previous year.
Moreover, this growth places a considerable burden on individuals and families, limiting their ability to afford essential medical treatments and services. Quality care remains a top priority, with digital health technologies, telehealth, and electronic health records becoming increasingly important in delivering value-based care. Hence, the above factors will impede the growth of the market during the forecast period.
