In recent years, the Health Cloud market has grown and changed rapidly with increasing penetration of digital health solutions and buyer needs for more effective healthcare management systems The rising trend in the market is cloud-based solutions for health care, which are very popular. Using cloud computing technologies to store, manage and analyze health-related data is what he calls Health Cloud. There are many advantages to this approach, including scalability, accessibility and affordability. In recent years, healthcare organizations have begun to restructure workflows and improve patient care. The Health Cloud is a key player in making these changes possible.
As a market already demanding interoperability, I believe that the Health Cloud particularly reflects the imperative for unimpeded data transmission among myriad healthcare systems. This evolution is propelled by the implacable digitization of health records and the desire to create a complete, seamless presentation of patient information. Through interoperability, Health Cloud solutions allow healthcare providers easy access to real-time data. The result is better patient outcomes and more informed decisions on the treatment front. Looking at interoperability, it seems extra propulsion from standardization and the development of common data exchange protocols have provided a critical market trend. Due to the importance and sensitivity of healthcare data, a big focus in Health Cloud is on security and compliance.
As the amount of health information stored in the cloud has increased, it is all too obvious why demand for robust security protocols capable of protecting patient privacy and ensuring compliance with regulations has risen. In view of these concerns, market players invest in advanced encryption technologies and identity and access management systems as well as highly robust compliance frameworks. In particular, now that healthcare organizations are focusing on solutions to protect sensitive data and still ensure unimpeded access for authorized users, adopting secure Health Cloud platforms has become an advantage over competitors.
However, telehealth and remote patient monitoring are what driving the demand for Health Cloud solutions. The current pandemic is only serving to speed up our embrace of virtual healthcare services on a more global scale. As a result, the market for telemedicine-related solutions has exploded in recent years--solutions that enable doctors to provide telephone or web consultations and patients' vital signs can be tested online as well rely on cloud software. It is not only opening through wider doors access to healthcare services. More importantly, it can also raise the overall efficiency of healthcare delivery by eliminating unnecessary in-person visits and optimizing resource allocation.
According to Market Research Future, the global Health Cloud Market is expected to surpass USD 115.7 Billion by 2030 with a CAGR rate of 15.6% during the projected period. Health cloud refers to cloud-based patient relationship platform which streamlines care coordination for patients in healthcare organization with an aim at placing every patient at the center of the care system. The platform provides a complete view of the patient’s health status and offers smart patient management to deliver am enhanced patient experience. The health cloud solution offered by Salesforce.com, Inc. utilizes the cloud platform along with social and mobile technologies to deliver a real-time view of patient’s health data and care plan.
Rapid advancements in technology are creating new opportunities for digitalization across the healthcare sector. Implementation of the Internet of Things (IoT) across the healthcare sector has resulted in the generation of significant volumes of patient data across the organization and is expected to grow exponentially. Increasing penetration of wearable and smart medical devices for health monitoring and tracking purpose also accelerates the data generated across the healthcare sector; this increases the demand for data storage and analytics capabilities among healthcare providers to understanding and obtain insights. Furthermore, cost-effective features, effective data storage capability, scalability, and flexibility, offered by cloud platform such as which reduces the cost related to IT infrastructure, further propels the growth of the global health cloud market. However, data security and privacy concerns and interoperability issues of the cloud platform are the factors limiting the market growth.
