The hospitals, physicians,
clinics, and insurance providers that make up the US healthcare system will be
spending over $69 billion on telecommunications services over the next six
years, says a new market research study released by the Insight Research
Corporation. According to the market analysis study, spending by the US
healthcare industry on telecommunications services will grow at a compounded
rate of 9.7 percent over the forecast period, increasing from $9.1 billion in
2012 to $14.4 billion in 2017 as the number of healthcare locations expands by
16 percent and the healthcare employment rate increases 2.5 times faster than
the total national employment rate.
According to the report, "Telecommunications, IT, and Healthcare: Wireless
Networks, Digital Healthcare and the Transformation of US Healthcare,
2012-2017," forces external to the healthcare industry, including Federal
Government policies, an aging population, and healthcare worker shortages are
encouraging the industry to find alternative approaches to current treatment
practices. Much of the high costs inherent in the current system are related to
the proximity of patient and provider, as well as to the archaic administrative
systems used to manage records and exchange information. Telecommunications can
bridge these proximity and system gaps.
"Healthcare providers are avid consumers of telecommunications services and new
technology. The combination of increased demand for wireless and broadband
access, massive data storage demands, and the conversion to electronic health
records (EHRs) and procedures is straining existing healthcare networks," says
Fran Caulfield, Insight Research Director. "Our research measures key
operational factors, such as population trends, patient monitoring, and
cloud-based storage requirements, and then we quantify the demands for
telecommunications services and equipment that will be needed to satisfy these
demands No surprises; the research points to strong demand," concluded
Caulfield.
"Telecommunications, IT, and Healthcare: Wireless Networks, Digital Healthcare
and the Transformation of US Healthcare, 2012-2017" provides a forecast of US
healthcare telecom service spending by wireline and wireless access and by
healthcare provider (Hospital, Physician, Clinics, and other practitioners).
