http://www.reportlinker.com/p01089680/Top-Ten-Companies-in-Telemedicine-Technologies.html#utm_source=prnewswire&utm_medium=pr&utm_campaign=e-Healthcare
REPORT SCOPE
INTRODUCTION
Globally, there is an increasing aging population plagued with chronic disease. These factors, combined with a focus on prevention and advancements in technologies, pharmaceuticals and treatments, will undoubtedly cause demand for healthcare services to continue to increase into the future.
REASONS FOR THE STUDY
There is interest in studying the ways in which collaborative healthcare can be better and more economically implemented through telemedicine. Recently announced best practices to cut down global healthcare costs, including outsourced medical services, home-based treatment, intervention as opposed to post treatment, integrated information technology (IT) environments, increased efficiency of healthcare resources and reducing billing gaps, all point toward the increasing use of telemedicine.
Given these factors, it seems timely that BCC identify the top 10 companies in the telemedicine field and the key factors to success in the telemedicine market that these companies are exploiting.
The report will also help gauge the ways in which this market can significantly affect larger markets such as healthcare, health insurance, home care, telecommunications (telecom), networking, disease management, e-health and healthcare IT. This is also timely, as major tier-one stakeholders are starting to enter the telemedicine market.
STUDY GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
Andrew McWilliamsKey criteria used to determine top players in the field include:
• Financial standing.
• Established market presence.
• Positioning within the healthcare ecosystem.
• Company track record of deliverable solutions.
• End-to-end coverage vs. niche market solution.
• Parent and subsidiary company support.
• Intellectual property and strategic licensing portfolio.
In addition to this these factors that BCC has chosen to examine, BCC has selected these 10 companies for this report that it feels are deserving of recognition, and are leaders in their industry. This list includes:• Alcatel-Lucent.• AMD Telemedicine Inc.• Cardiocom.• Cisco.• Honeywell Hommed.• International Business Machines Corp.• LifeWatch AG.• Polycom.• Robert Bosch Healthcare.• SHL Telemedicine Ltd.
As any top-10 list is invariably subjective, there are also several companies profiled in less detail. These companies were on the bubble or should be watched in the near future, as they are currently on the rise.
INTENDED AUDIENCE
SCOPE SCOPE METHODOLOGY REPORT HIGHLIGHTS• Identification of the top 10 companies in telemedicine technologies and the rationale behind these selections.
• Factors that include technical innovation, market leadership, and commitment to this market via investment in products.
When selecting these top 10 companies, BCC Research looked across the industry spectrum and selected the most active and significant contributors while recognizing that there are many other contenders. Some of these "significant others" are included but to a less detailed extent than the top 10 companies.
