Healthcare IT is becoming more common in a number of healthcare environments to increase productivity and quality of care while also helping in cost containment. In developing economies, healthcare IT companies can face challenges such as cybersecurity, workforce shortages, and limited technological infrastructure. However, regulatory policy relaxations and positive government measures would allow companies to resolve these challenges. The healthcare IT sector is at the epicenter of a global pandemic that has never been seen before. Few systemic factors that affected the healthcare IT industry during the COVID-19 outbreak were virtual care & data technology and IT systems like digitalization and analytical technologies. Furthermore, industry participants concentrating on R&D projects will contribute to advancements in healthcare information technology.
Growing geriatric population; rising hospital equipment costs, especially for advanced treatment and care; and growing demand for home healthcare services are all expected to boost IT service adoption. Furthermore, the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and heart failure is driving demand for a variety of IT-based services in this market. Healthcare IT benefits such as reducing errors in a medical facility, lowering operating costs, and increasing the rate of good results are expected to drive business growth. According to a recent AMA survey and data cited in an article published in Healthcare IT News in 2020, the acceptance of healthcare IT services has increased in recent years. According to the survey, remote monitoring for better treatment increased from 13% in 2016 to 22% in 2019.
