The connected healthcare market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The market size of connected healthcare has seen significant expansion in the past few years. The market is projected to expand from $155.31 billion in 2024 to $195.91 billion in 2025, achieving a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 26.1%.
The escalation during the historical period is linked to factors such as the ageing population and chronic illnesses, the embrace of digital health, efficiency and costs related to healthcare, remote monitoring of patients, and demand driven by the pandemic.
The connected healthcare market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• The market size for connected healthcare is predicted to experience considerable expansion in the coming years, reaching a value of $555.58 billion by 2029 with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 29.8%.
This progress during the forecast period can be ascribed to the burgeoning adoption of personalized medicine, interoperability of health data, models of value-based care, heightened emphasis on mental health and well-being, equity and accessibility in healthcare, and an increasing demand for data protection and cybersecurity. The forecast period will also see major trends such as the proliferation of IoT devices and sensors, the application of artificial intelligence in healthcare, the popularity of wearable health technology, and advancements in technology and product innovations.
The increasing incorporation of IT in the health sector is substantially driving the expansion of the connected healthcare market. Connected healthcare employs the internet and other digital technology to collect patient data and facilitate a connection between patients and their caregivers, endorsing remote health monitoring through automated systems. The integration of healthcare IT software with health devices and applications is required for the seamless operation and management of extensive medical data, which provides a boost to remote health management. For example, in November 2022, a Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) survey revealed that 61% of healthcare executives implemented automation technologies, indicating a pronounced rise from prior years. This escalating trend is part of a larger endeavor to improve operational functionality and lower expenses in healthcare settings. Consequently, the escalating incorporation of IT in health services is predicted to fuel the expansion of the connected healthcare market throughout the projected period.
