The ease of adoption increases the number of users, thereby contributing to the growth of the market. A breach in security is expected to hinder the digital payments market globally.

Many users are increasingly opting for contactless payment technologies such as mobile wallets, contactless cards, and others as they are more secure and convenient to use. Contactless payment technology uses radio frequency identification (RFID) or near-field communication (NFC) for the transmission of amounts among users. Mobile payments transaction volume reached $1.7 billion in 2021 whicvh was a 27% increase as compared to 2020.

Retail companies are increasingly working towards providing customers with a seamless shopping experience and are thus working towards integrating their brick and mortar stores with online shopping. Omnichannel retailing integrates the different methods of shopping available to consumers, such as by phone, online, or in a physical store. Retailers adopting this strategy offer customers numerous ways to purchase their products, through both online and offline channels. Thus, it is more flexible and convenient for consumers to purchase goods or services, which helps to boost sales. For example, Oasis, a UK-based fashion retailer, consolidates its e-commerce site, mobile app, and brick-and-mortar stores to provide an easier and better shopping experience. Associates working in the Oasis are provided iPads to give shoppers on-the-spot information on product availability. If an item is not in stock, the staff use their iPads to place an online order for the customer. A similar service is provided to online shoppers. If an item is unavailable online, customers can use the company’s service, wherein the retailer searches its stores for the product and ships it to the shopper. Vending machine operators are integrating gamification techniques with their vending machines to enhance the customer experience. Gamification is the process of incorporating game-playing elements to motivate people to engage with a product or service. Due to its interactive nature between the customer and the product through the vending machine, it results in a better customer experience and an overall return rate. For instance, some of the e-commerce companies using gamification in shopping include eBay with its bidding and feedback system, Nike with its "winter’s angry campaign," BestBuy’s Cityville Presence, and Zappos, following gamified culture and customer service. Nescafe set up a Nescafé Smoovlatté vending machine in Malaysia, which invited people to pose, sing, or dance in order to get a free bottle of the drink. The Amstel Pause vending machine in Bulgaria invited people to do nothing for 3 minutes to get a free can of beer, thus indicating the increase in gamification techniques in vending machines.

A value-based care payment is a type of payment that compensates providers for both efficiency and effectiveness by linking payments for care delivery to the level of care they deliver. Value-based care payment is a system in which healthcare providers such as hospitals are paid based on patient's health outcome, quality, efficiency, cost, and patient experience. The main types of models in value based care payment are accountable care organization (ACO), bundled payments, patient-centered medical home (PCMH), and pay for performance (P4P). A healthcare organization that connects provider compensation to quality measurements and cost-cutting measures is known as an accountable care organization. The different deployment modes include cloud-based, on-premise and is used in various sectors such as providers, and payer. The value based care payment market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides value based care payment market statistics, including value based care payment industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a value based care payment market share, detailed value based care payment market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the value based care payment industry. This value based care payment market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry. The global value based care payment market size will grow from $2.2 billion in 2022 to $2.47 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.2%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The global value based care payment market size is expected to grow from $3.73 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 10.9%. Rapid development in value-based health care services is expected to contribute to the tremendous growth of the market. Healthcare cost curve and unnecessary health expenditures have been reduced to almost 5.6% on average due to value based healthcare services. The UnitedHealth predicted that $75 billion of its payments to medical care providers will be attached to value-based care relationships by the end of 2020. Likewise, the quantity of Accountable Care Organizations (ACO) is expanding, giving more protection and inclusion. For example, according to the analysis in the Journal of Health Affairs, there were more than 1,000 ACOs spread across the USA, which represented more than 1,400 contracts with commercial and government insurers covering more than 32 million Americans. Therefore, rapid expansion in value-based health care services is driving the market by increasing the effective usage of services provided to customers focusing on value-based care model rather than the fee-for-service model. The lack of health care infrastructure is expected to limit the growth of value based care payment market. The main reason for this dearth is the lack of willingness of organizations to take the technological risk. For instance, according to a survey, a large portion of the organizations are yet to embrace artificial intelligence (AI) to accelerate value-based care. About 43% of healthcare organizations are uncertain about actualizing AI and another 21% are not prepared for any AI-related innovation. Moreover, only 13% are prepared for AI and have an execution plan set up attributing to the lack of trained staff with knowledge of data analytics. In addition to this, according to a survey of 2,900 medicinal executives through the span of a year, many healthcare facilities lack the infrastructure to integrate patient data effectively, which implies that value-based care payment cannot be used in these organizations. These factors are expected to impact healthcare infrastructure by limiting the growth of value based care payment market. Partnerships in value based care are gaining popularity among the providers as these partnerships allow partners such as manufacturers, payers, and provider organizations to co-develop programs, solutions, and initiatives collaboratively for the benefit of patients and healthcare systems. Value-based partnerships assist with conveying the highest value incentive to the healthcare system and society by concentrating on improving patient results with regard to the system and societal total costs. For instance, in June 2021, Humana, a US-based health insurance company acquired value-based home healthcare partner One Homecare Solutions (onehome) from WayPoint Capital Partners to enhance value-based care in home healthcare services. In March 2022, Signify Health, Inc., a Texas-based value-based healthcare platform, acquired Caravan Health for an undisclosed amount.
