Market Challenges

• The Electronic Health Records (EHR) market is witnessing significant growth due to the digitalization of healthcare. However, challenges persist in various segments. In the professional services segment, integrating EHR systems across hospitals, healthcare units, rehabilitation centers, and clinics requires expertise. Chronic diseases demand efficient management of patient health history, medicines, allergies, and immunization status. Hospitals face challenges with paperwork, digitalization, and big data management in acute and post-acute segments. Doctors and physicians in ambulatory services need user-friendly Web-based EHR solutions for easy access to patient records. Pharmacies, laboratories, and clinics require seamless integration with EHR systems for efficient clinical documentation and administrative applications. EHR service providers must address the unique needs of advanced healthcare facilities, specialty centers, and geriatric population. Software technology, artificial intelligence, and cloud storage technology play crucial roles in addressing these challenges. Healthcare financing, drug development, and device integration are also essential considerations. Inpatient EHR, clinical trials, and administrative data management are key areas of focus.
• The electronic health records (EHR) market is experiencing significant growth due to the digitalization of healthcare workflows. However, this trend comes with concerns over privacy and data protection. With the integration of devices generating data into healthcare systems and the availability of data from hospitals and insurance companies in a centralized place, healthcare organizations and patient information are at risk of cyberattacks. This issue restricts the healthcare industry from fully adopting advanced technologies, despite the potential benefits of improved healthcare quality, insights, and cost reduction. It is crucial for industry players to prioritize security measures to mitigate these risks and ensure patient data confidentiality.
