This study involved four major activities in
estimating the current size of the healthcare it market. Exhaustive secondary
research was carried out to collect information on the market, its peer
markets, and its parent market.
The next step was to validate these findings,
assumptions, and sizing with industry experts across the value chain through
primary research. Both top-down and bottom-up approaches were employed to
estimate the complete market size. After that, market breakdown and data
triangulation procedures were used to estimate the size of segments and
subsegments.
Expected Revenue Growth:
The global Healthcare IT Market size is projected to reach USD 270.3 billion by 2021 from
USD 227.5 billion in 2020, at a CAGR of 23.6%.
Major Growth Boosters:
The market for healthcare information technology
is driven primarily by the rising incidence of COVID-19, government mandates,
support and initiatives for HCIT solutions, the increasing use of big data in
healthcare, high returns on investment for HCIT solutions, and the need to
curtail escalating healthcare costs. However, high costs of solutions,
implementation, and infrastructure, and concerns regarding data security are

Recent Developments:
1. In April 2020, OptumServe, the federal health
services business of Optum, partnered with the California state in the US to
increase testing for COVID-19 in the state’s communities
2. In April 2020, UnitedHealth Research & Development
and The Everett Clinic, part of Optum, led a research study which revealed that
alternative swab materials and commonly available saline are effective for
COVID-19 testing, providing more options for sample collection. These new
findings, in conjunction with nasal sampling, allow for greater flexibility in
obtaining samples, reduce the risk of infection to clinicians in collecting
samples and reduce the need for clinicians to use protective equipment.
3. In April 2020, Cerner Corporation started offering
complimentary access to critical de-identified COVID-19 patient data to
selected health systems and academic research centers in the US, to help fight
the pandemic. This will provide eligible healthcare researchers with free
access to Cerner’s COVID-19 data set to support epidemiological studies,
clinical trials, and medical treatments related to COVID-19, in line with the
applicable laws and guidelines.
North America accounted for the largest share of the healthcare
it market. The large share of this region can primarily be attributed to the
high adoption of telehealth solutions, the high number of positive COVID-19
cases & deaths in the US, a strong healthcare system and IT infrastructure,
and the presence of many large hospitals in the region. Moreover, a large
number of major global players are based in the US, owing to which the US can
easily manufacture these devices.
Key Questions Addressed in The Report:
1. Who are the top 10 players operating in the
global Healthcare IT market?
2. What are the drivers, restraints,
opportunities, and challenges in the Healthcare IT Industry?
3. What are the opportunities for stakeholders and

4. What will be growth of Healthcare IT in North
America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East and Africa?
Telehealth Segment:
The telehealth segment is expected to grow at the
highest CAGR during the forecast period. The use of telehealth solutions
facilitates remote doctor-patient consultations (telemedicine) and vital sign
monitoring. These solutions enable medical practitioners to evaluate &
diagnose patients, ePrescribe medicines & treatments and detect
fluctuations in their medical conditions through remote consultations.
The COVID-19 pandemic is providing immense
opportunities for telehealth solutions, considering that social distancing is
the only existing solution developed so far capable of minimizing exposure. In
this regard, telemedicine represents an attractive, effective, and affordable
option. Moreover, this technology is of critical importance in keeping
healthcare providers safe.
