Current Scenario of the Remote Patient Monitoring Market

Remote patient monitoring is a part of telehealth, which utilizes digital technology to monitor patients. Most remote patient monitoring services allow healthcare providers to collect, analyze, and transmit the patient's health data. The data is collected by the devices like blood pressure monitors, pulse oximeters, and blood glucose measuring devices. Remote patient monitoring also includes wearable devices such as sensors, smartphones, smartwatches, and remote cardiac monitoring devices. The global remote patient monitoring market has accounted for prominent growth in the past years and is projected to have significant growth during the forecast period. Remote patient monitoring systems have comprehensive utilization in patients with chronic conditions, and this benefits healthcare providers and patients by reducing face-to-face interactions. Remote patient monitoring provides the scope of personalization, allowing the patients to access their own health data required for future reference.   

MARKET DRIVERS

The growing chronic disease patient population majorly propels the growth of the remote patient monitoring market.

The number of people diagnosed with chronic diseases is growing rapidly worldwide. As per the data published by the Centers for Disease Prevention and Control, every 6 in 10 people has at least one chronic disease in the U.S. Factors such as the growing aging population, increasing adoption of sedentary lifestyles and poor diets are majorly resulting in the diagnosis of chronic diseases. Using remote patient monitoring technologies, healthcare providers can track their health data, such as blood glucose levels, blood pressure, heart rate, and respiratory function, from home. The usage of remote patient monitoring technologies among the chronic disease patient population has increased rapidly in recent years. The technologies of remote patient monitoring have considerably reduced the number of in-person visits and hospitalizations for chronic disease patients and have given improved outcomes and lower costs for both patients and healthcare providers.

The growing aging population worldwide is fuelling the growth rate of the remote patient monitoring market.

As per the statistics published by the United Nations (UN), the population above the age of 60 years is anticipated to reach 2.1 billion by 2050. The aging population in the U.S. is growing rapidly and will reach 83.7 million by 2050 from 43.1 billion in 2012. The growing aging population is resulting in an increasing need for quality healthcare services and innovative healthcare solutions. The technology of remote patient monitoring can fill this gap by providing patients with access to healthcare services from the comfort of their own homes, which is significantly beneficial to older people who have difficulties traveling to healthcare facilities. The RPM technology further helps patients who require continuous health monitoring and shares real-time feedback with healthcare providers to avoid complications and improve overall healthcare outcomes. RPM is also a cost-effective solution that limits the number of hospital readmissions and reduces the need for in-person visits.

The growing number of initiatives from several governments in favor of remote patient monitoring further fuelling the remote patient monitoring market.

In recent years, many governments and healthcare organizations have supported the usage of RPM and encouraged people to adopt these solutions. The governments of various countries have launched numerous initiatives to support remote patient monitoring in terms of funding programs for the R&D and implementation of remote patient monitoring technologies and offered favorable regulatory environments to facilitate the usage of remote patient monitoring in healthcare settings. For instance, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) in the U.S. announced favorable reimbursement policies for remote patient monitoring services in 2019, which has resulted in the increasing adoption of remote patient monitoring technologies. Likewise, the NHS in the UK has launched several initiatives to encourage the usage of remote patient monitoring. For instance, the NHS announced an initiative to provide remote monitoring devices to COPD patients to manage their condition from home.  

Factors such as an insufficient number of healthcare staff in many countries, cost-effectiveness by reducing hospital stays, increasing the healthcare needs of the geriatric population and the growing awareness and acceptance of telemedicine boost the growth rate of the remote patient monitoring market. The growing efforts by device manufacturers to create innovative devices are expected to propel the market growth further. The growing need for modern technologies with new remote devices is likely to create an opportunity for new entrants to the market. Furthermore, the growing adoption of technological advancements favors the growth of the remote patient monitoring market. Due to recent technological developments, remote patient monitoring services have become accessible and affordable to many patients worldwide. Using Wearable devices, mobile apps, and other digital tools, it has become easy and convenient for patients to manage their health and share data with healthcare providers.

MARKET RESTRAINTS

Limited reimbursement policies for remote patient monitoring are one of the major factors hampering the remote patient monitoring market growth.

The usage of remote patient monitoring systems is limited due to a lack of reimbursement policies from insurance companies and governmental organizations. Remote patient monitoring systems need access to patients' sensitive information. Data security and privacy concerns associated with the usage of remote patient monitoring systems hinder market growth. High costs associated with the initial implementation of remote patient monitoring systems and ongoing costs such as maintenance, upgrades, and training are further limiting the adoption of remote patient monitoring and the market’s growth rate. Poor awareness among people and healthcare providers regarding the potential benefits of RPM technologies and limited access to technology in rural areas showcases a negative impact on the RPM market growth.
