According to a new report from TechNavio, the global patient monitoring system market will swell to $9.3 billion in 2014. TechNavio’s analysis focuses on the US, EMEA and APAC and concludes that remote patient monitoring is driving growth in the wider patient monitoring market. The price of these systems is cost prohibitive, however, the report found.
“Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) is greatly minimizing hospital stays, resulting in a reduction of the cost of healthcare delivery. Thus, RPM helps healthcare centers reduce costs and increase business opportunities for healthcare service providers while integrating systems and providing necessary operational facilities. As a result, the Patient Monitoring Systems market stands to gain,” TechNavio states in a press release.
Earlier this year Kalorama Information predicted that the market for remote and wireless patient monitoring will grow about 26 percent annually through 2014. Kalorama said the market for these systems will grow by over $6 billion this year alone, which seems to put it at odds with TechNavio’s $9.3 billion by 2014 figure.
The disagreement doesn’t end there, of course. Plenty of opinions on market size:
Late last year in December, we reported on Berg Insight’s market size estimation for home health monitoring of what it called “welfare diseases,” which it pegged at about $10 billion in 2010. That figure included the market for chronic condition management for conditions including diabetes, cardiac arrhythmia, sleep apnea, asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
Perhaps this kind of figure is more important: In 2010 we reported on Juniper Research’s estimate that by the year 2014 public and private healthcare providers may save between $1.96 billion and $5.83 billion in healthcare costs thanks to remote patient monitoring over cellular networks.
