Digital Health Industry Overview

The global digital health market size was valued at approximately USD 240.9 billion in 2023 and is anticipated to expand significantly, with a projected compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.9% from 2024 to 2030. This rapid growth is fueled by multiple key factors. The market benefits from a strong foundation of telehealthcare platform developers, mHealth (mobile health) application providers, wearable device manufacturers, and e-prescription systems, which are increasingly catering to healthcare needs worldwide.

Additionally, the healthcare industry presents considerable growth opportunities for the IT sector, particularly due to supportive government policies and initiatives across various regions. These policies encourage the development and adoption of digital health technologies, making it easier for companies to introduce and expand digital health solutions. Moreover, a growing emphasis on preventive healthcare and increased funding for mHealth startups contribute significantly to the market’s expansion, as these trends promote innovation and accessibility in health services.

The demand for digital health solutions is also driven by the rising prevalence of chronic diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. These conditions highlight the need for effective remote monitoring and management tools, allowing patients to track their health more closely, stay consistent with treatment plans, and communicate efficiently with healthcare providers. Digital health tools thus play a critical role in enhancing patient care and improving health outcomes, further propelling the market forward.
