Growing incidences and prevalence of chronic diseases and growing technological advances in healthcare is expected to drive the Global Telehealth Market growth in the forecast period, 2024-2028.


According to TechSci Research report, “Global Telehealth Market - Industry Size, Share, Trends, Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2028”, the Global Telehealth Market stood at USD 85.57 billion in 2022 and is anticipated to grow with a CAGR of 8.05% in the forecast period, 2024-2028. The market growth is driven by several key factors, including the rising prevalence of chronic diseases, growing demand for remote patient monitoring, and improved patient engagement. However, challenges related to privacy and data security pose significant obstacles to the market's expansion. Despite these challenges, there are ample opportunities in the telehealth market, such as the increasing need for technology and funding to support its growth. Moreover, the demand for healthcare services and technologies has surged in the aftermath of the pandemic. Innovative technologies like telemedicine, chatbots, and robots are being deployed to gather information, provide reassurance, deliver patient care, make diagnoses, and even aid in future vaccine development. The potential of telehealth has become even more evident, given the global shortage of hospital beds and healthcare professionals.

The global telehealth market is being driven by the increasing demand for digital and convenient healthcare products and services among hospitals and consumers worldwide. Telehealth platforms are gaining significant traction among consumers due to the availability of healthcare professionals at the touch of a button. The growth of the telehealth market is further fueled by investments in IT infrastructure development and the widespread adoption of smartphones and internet connectivity. As of the end of 2019, approximately 4 billion people were using the internet, with smartphones being the primary means of access. Physicians and doctors are increasingly embracing telehealth platforms to provide consultations and other services, making it an important distribution channel for healthcare professionals. Consequently, the growing demand for telehealth platforms from both consumers and healthcare providers is driving the expansion of the global telehealth market. The telehealth market is also propelled by the rising prevalence of chronic diseases and the growing geriatric population. Additionally, the increasing number of hospitals and clinics worldwide is fueling the adoption of telehealth. By monitoring patients' medical health and providing valuable insights during treatment, telehealth facilitates effective patient care. Furthermore, the constant monitoring required for geriatric patients is driving the demand for telehealth platforms. The widespread penetration of telehealth apps globally is playing a significant role in the market's exponential growth. Moreover, key market players are contributing to the market's expansion through various strategic initiatives such as acquisitions, partnerships, and new product launches.

The increasing penetration of the internet and the continuous evolution and development of smartphones have been significant factors contributing to the growth of the market. Advancements in digital infrastructure have empowered users to monitor their health and fitness, access medical assistance, and schedule appointments conveniently. For example, various applications and platforms like Doctor on Demand, Lemonaid, and MDLive enable users to book appointments, track personal health data, and store healthcare information securely. Insurance companies and healthcare payers are forging collaborations with key market players to offer free consultation services to patients. A notable example is the partnership between AIG and Cigna with Doctor Anywhere in Singapore, where they provide complimentary consultation services to patients across Thailand, Singapore, and Vietnam. Furthermore, the increasing number of public-private partnerships, advancements in digital infrastructure, government initiatives, and continuous advancements in digital health technologies are expected to drive the demand for virtual care applications and services. Nevertheless, the absence of robust health standards in comparison to the traditional healthcare system and concerns regarding patient privacy and confidentiality may somewhat limit the expansion of this market. Similarly, the hesitancy to transition from conventional systems, instances of misdiagnosis, and technological obstacles in developing nations can pose challenges for the stakeholders operating in this market.
