Medical Document Management Systems Market Trends

• Evolving healthcare practices and Government initiatives to boost the market growth

Evolving healthcare practices and the rising adoption of health information management and electronic medical record systems have pushed the market for medical document management systems. The market for medical electronic document management systems has grown as a result of the rising adoption of health information management systems like the electronic medical record (EMR), health information management (HIM), radiology information system (RIS), and picture archiving and communication system (PACS). For instance, electronic medical record (EMR) systems are gaining popularity as the healthcare sector transitions to digitization.

The EMR market's growth is fueled by numerous government measures, including encouraging doctors to use electronic health records, investing in training healthcare IT professionals, and setting up regional extension centers to offer technical and other advice. To enable the flow of health data across borders, the European Commission, for instance, recommended a European electronic health record exchange format in March 2021. No matter where they are in Europe, European residents can trade and access their health data safely thanks to this regulation.

Furthermore, the EU Management Report's selection and implementation of Electronic Document Management Systems was announced in April 2022 by Food and Drug Administration. Moreover, on April 30, 2022, the VA Central Ohio Hospital System in Columbus, Ohio, hosted the third rollout of the Department of Veterans Affairs' new electronic health record, replacing the more than 30-year-old software that records and maintains patient information.

Medical Document Management Systems Delivery Model Insights

Based on the delivery model, the  medical document management systems market segmentation includes on-premise, cloud-based, and web-based segments. The on-premise segment accounted for the biggest revenue in 2022. Due to its capacity to secure patient data by storing it in private data centers, most healthcare businesses prefer on-premise software to utilize document management systems. Implementing these systems in small-scale hospitals is anticipated to be hindered by high installation costs and additional fees related to licensing renewal.

Healthcare professionals can access clinical information via web-based solutions from different places. With two-factor authentication, such as a login ID and password, these systems enable data processing that is both interoperable and simple. To better secure patient information, the sent data may additionally be encrypted. The web-based solutions' highest revenue share can be due to their advantages.

A cloud-based strategy is relatively new and is typically employed by businesses without the necessary internal infrastructure. These systems' installation costs are less than those of on-premises systems. The primary factor fueling the demand is that this software eliminates the requirement for internal maintenance. Additionally, it is anticipated that the necessity for ongoing updates connected with on-premises systems would increase demand for cloud-based solutions. As a result, this market segment is anticipated to grow quickly throughout the forecast period. The long-standing strategic partnership between Allscripts and Microsoft Corp. was extended in July 2020 to facilitate the expansion of the creation and provision of cloud-based health IT solutions. Allscripts' Sunrise cloud-based electronic health record will be supported for five years.
