The size of the Healthcare Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) Market in Latin America is estimated at USD 20.92 Billion in 2022 and is poised to reach USD 33.46 Billion by 2027 growing at a CAGR of 9.85% during the forecast period.
DRIVERS
Rapid rise in clinical process outsourcing (CPO), implementation of PPACA compelled healthcare players to shift toward outsourcing, and fewer errors in various non-critical tasks, such as finance and accounting, customer care services, and so on, are all contributing to the market's growth. Access to technology and the rise of nearshore outsourcing locations Companies have started outsourcing their business operations to BPO service providers in the same region since near shore provides them the advantage of cultural, time zone, and language similarity, which helps them offer better-quality services.
Many healthcare providers are now able to offer services in new ways because of advancements in digital technology that has led to a transition from electronic records to telemedicine. One of the services is a Medical Transcription (MT) service, which involves recording and translating voice notes into multiple languages. Doctors save time while assessing patients by having data digitized by skilled personnel. The factors driving Latin America healthcare business process outsourcing in healthcare systems and hospitals are the protecting of patient confidential information, fraud detection and management, network security, and reducing critical errors. Outsourcing healthcare business operations has resulted in improved patient care and workflow efficiency.
RESTRAINTS
The major restraint in the outsourcing process is losing control of the outsourced element. It also raises questions about the product's or service's quality. Not only have that, but data security concerns are another major obstacle to the expansion of Latin America Healthcare business process outsourcing.
OPPORTUNITIES
Cloud-based BPO has changed business outsourcing operations, assisting healthcare businesses in reducing costs, developing global delivery models, and ensuring safe data access. Cloud-based BPO services are expected to become more popular in the future as a result of their advantages. By helping in the collecting of patient data, robotic process automation, big data, and artificial intelligence (AI) are projected to grow the industry much more. For example, HGS manages the insurance enrollment procedure for patients. Bots are used by the firm to save time by auto-filling information into the appropriate forms. These low-cost treatments, easy access to high-quality doctors, increased patient care and thus patient satisfaction, and the decrease of critical errors, particularly in providing patient medical reports, are all factors that contribute to the Latin America Healthcare business process outsourcing industry's growth.
CHALLENGES
Failure to verify insurance, filing an incomplete claim, coding mistakes, a lack of detail, and missing filing deadlines are among the most prevalent billing errors. The majority of healthcare providers are currently dealing with the problem by working with third-party medical billing experts who are experts in revenue cycle management.
Another problem restricting the Latin America expansion of healthcare business process outsourcing is the high cost of system installation and maintenance. Rapid changes may also have a negative impact on business growth. The market's main challenge is the high initial capital investment necessary for a new production plant, as well as the additional cost of R&D necessary for the manufacturing of diverse Healthcare BPO goods and compliance of these Healthcare BPO goods in a wide and diverse market.
