Europe Digital Health Market Size (2020 to 2025)
The size of the digital health market in Europe is predicted to grow at a CAGR of 27.1% from 2020 to 2025. An increase in demand for remote healthcare services for monitoring and consultancy of patients due to the rise in incidences of chronic diseases across the globe is one of the prime factors in the market's growth.
A digital health system means using information technology, electronic communication tools, services, and processes to remotely deliver health care services and facilitate better health to the patients.
The European Commission had launched a public consultation project to gain input from various digital health industry participants to promote innovations and care for its citizens. The information from patients, healthcare professionals, investors, and insurers were included in the digital health policy and brought into practice post-2017, thereby fostering business growth.
In the European region, the digital health market is gaining momentum, with mobile applications being widely used for improving health and lifestyle. Several m-health (mobile health) apps for both patients and doctors for managing diseases and the growing need for health improvements are continuously being developed. High market penetration of technically advanced digital health devices and the existence of government-supported schemes are driving the growth of the digital health market during the forecast period.
Lack of technical knowledge among the patients, strict rules and regulations by authorities, and the risks related to privacy breach and security hinders the European digital health market. Factors such as misuse of patient data online, a limited number of healthcare workers, and financial inconsistency of care further limit the European digital health market.
