Comprehensive Market Analysis And Insights

Market Definition

e-health platform offers medical informatics related to health services and information delivered through the Internet and related technologies. eHealth applications are software and services that transmit, manage, record or store information used in the delivery of healthcare treatment, record keeping, and payment.

Market Dynamics

Increasing government initiatives for the use of eHealth programs and solutions is boosting the market growth. For instance, The U.S. government has introduced MyHealthEData Initiative to Put Patients at the Center of the US Healthcare System. MyHealthEData empowers patients by providing them control of their healthcare data and allowing them to follow through their healthcare journey. The MyHealthEData initiative also helps to share their data, making the patient the center of the healthcare system. Additionally, India and the Netherlands government have introduced plans for the e-health sector, with the aim of providing digital health facilities and security to the Indians. The aim of the program is to improve care quality and provide better access to healthcare, using analytics, aggregated and anonymised data mining. Further, the shortage of healthcare professionals is a key driving factor of the market. The use of health IT could help address regional shortages of healthcare professionals by potentially enabling 12% of care to be delivered remotely or asynchronously. The estimated impacts could more than double if comprehensive health IT systems were adopted by ambulatory care delivery settings. However, the risk of data security might hamper market growth. eHealth helps to provide medical through the Internet and related technologies. Cybercriminals can hack into e-health solutions and compromise the Personal Health Information (PHI) of both patients as well as doctors and can misuse data to create fake IDs to buy drugs and medical equipment, which they can sell later. Moreover, the growth of IoT in healthcare would provide lucrative opportunities for the market in the coming years.

Market Segmentation

The global eHealth market is mainly classified based on type and end-user. Type is further segmented into Telemedicine, Consumer Health Information, mHealth, Health Management, EHR, ePrescribing, Clinical Decision Support, and Others. By end-user, the market is divided into Hospitals, Insurance Companies, and Others.

Based on type, Electronic Health Record (EHR) was dominating the eHealth market in 2020 attributed to the growing adoption rate of EHR by developed and developing nations, the collaboration between companies to introduce Electronic Health Record (EHR) solutions, and the launch of new Electronic Health Record (EHR) platform. EHR provides convenience for healthcare providers by offering quick access to patient records, provides clinical alerts, improved decision support, and real-time quality reporting. For instance, MEDITECH has introduced the MEDITECH Cloud Platform, solutions that help healthcare organizations to further extend the possibilities of the Expanse Electronic Health Record (EHR). MEDITECH Cloud Platform offers Expanse NOW, High Availability SnapShot, and Virtual Care solutions, all created to work naturally in the cloud and are available through a subscription model.

Regional Analysis

Based on geography, the global eHealth market is divided into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, South America, and Middle East & Africa.
