Market Overview

Recent innovations in the healthcare mobile computer market have enabled the secure transfer of data within medical institutions. This has propelled key industry players to develop innovative products that cater to specialized user concerns.

These include department-specific technological innovations that promote secure communication of confidential medical records and patient information. Recent cyberattacks on hospital data systems are a key healthcare mobile computer market restraint.

There is increasing worry about maintaining the confidentiality of sensitive patient information and the need for cybersecurity for hospitals’ digital data storage systems. Hence, industry leaders need to develop advanced technology-embedded healthcare mobile systems that are highly secure to improve consumer confidence.

Developed nations in North America and Europe are expected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period. The availability of advanced medical technologies, coupled with greater patient access to technology, is the major growth factor.

Further, the medical systems in these regions, such as those of Canada, the United States, and the UK, started the digitization process much earlier than the developing and under-developed nations. Thus medical data management systems are much more advanced and efficient.

Due to the increased digitization of diverse demographics, the Asia-Pacific region is expected to record a promising CAGR during the forecast period. This is bolstered by increasing investment in public healthcare systems as well as the adoption of advanced technologies such as 5G in the region.

Healthcare mobile computing involves use of mobile devices and enterprise platforms to communicate and efficiently manage exchange of medical data among several end users. The use of mobile computing and applications can help make this changeover across healthcare amenities, resulting in fewer hospitals readmissions and augmented patient’s outcomes.

Mobile computers enable healthcare service providers to have access to patient information on-demand and at any location within the facility, ensuring the highest quality care possible at cost effective price.

Currently, the healthcare industry is witnessing use of point-of-care computing solutions including laptops, smartphones, tablets, handheld scanners, RFID readers, and mobile carts owing mainly to affordability, ease in accessibility, and timely medical assistance provided by these devices.

Global Market of Healthcare Mobile Computers: Drivers and Restraint

The market of healthcare mobile computers is expected to observe hefty growth during the forecast period due to various factors such as: increase in adoption rate of mobile computers such as smartphones and tablets in healthcare units, better cost efficiency of mobile computing solutions, rising focus towards patient-centric applications, rapid rise in penetration of wireless networks such as 3G & 4G, shortage of nursing staff and doctors promoting the adoption of mobile computing solutions.

In addition to that, mobile computers are resolving most of the major challenges confronted by the healthcare industry including rising costs & error rates, decreasing profitability, fast-changing regulatory environment and demand for quality healthcare, by making healthcare organizations more responsive to the market demand.

Data security issues, lack of standard communication protocols and reimbursement policies, short battery life of mobile computers are few constraint which are expected to hamper the growth of market in the near future.

Global Market of Healthcare Mobile Computers: Region wise outlook

Presently, North America and Europe are one of the major regions witnessing the adoption of the healthcare mobile computers.

The primary factors attributing to the market growth in these regions are; high dissemination of mobile devices, development and adoption of pioneering technologies, and the presence of major companies in this region, which improves consumer approachability to mobile computers.

However, the future growth of the global market of healthcare mobile computers will be driven by the Asia-Pacific and Latin America mainly due to the upsurge in number of healthcare organizations such as hospitals, nursing homes, clinics and other ambulatory care services.

Additionally, increasing frequency of chronic diseases and disorders which demands continuous patient monitoring is also one of the key factors expected to strengthen the growth of mobile devices in this region.

Growth in these regions is expected to be centred on developing economies such as India, China, Singapore, South Korea, UAE, Brazil, Argentina, and Mexico. This is due to the fact that these economies facilitate modified guidelines and are continuously monitoring the implementation of procedures and policies to promote commercialization and innovations in order to attract global investors.

Japan is also one of the significant region witnessing adoption of healthcare mobile computers.   The growth is mainly driven by rising geriatric population, leading to susceptibility to chronic diseases and penetration of mobile computers such as smartphones and tablets in the country.
