Amongst all, the mHealth market is expected to witness fastest growth during the forecast period, attributed to the increasing number of health awareness programs. For instance, according to a research study conducted by F. Hoffmann-La Roche AG and Daman – U.A.E's National Health Insurance Company, there were 325,000 health apps available in 2017, and approximately 3.6 billion apps were downloaded by the users in the same year across the world.

Digital health solutions are mainly used in the hospitals, clinics and at individual level. The hospitals constituted the largest end-user base for digital health solutions in the global digital health market, accounting for 52.1% market share in 2017. This can be attributed to the high adoption of various digital health solutions in large number of hospitals for providing effective care to large patient base. However, the fastest growth during the forecast period is expected from the individual end-user category. This is primarily due to the surge in penetration of information technology-based technologies and solutions amongst the population.

During the forecast period, the digital health market is forecasted to witness the fastest growth in APAC, at a CAGR of 26.6%. This growth is attributed to the rising geriatric population and surge in the prevalence of different chronic diseases. In terms of technology, improving healthcare infrastructure, increasing adoption of smart phones, and government support in the form of investments and grants, have fueled the growth of digital health market in the region. Moreover, the successful implementation of telemedicine projects in the regional countries including India has led to the envisioning of a regional telemedicine network connecting the Southeast Asian countries.
