TechNavio today launched its report Global Hospital Information Systems Market 2011 “2015 based on an in-depth study covering the Americas, and the EMEA and APAC regions. The report aims to aid decision makers™ understanding of the key trends impacting this market.
Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio™s IT Services team said; Medical tourism is gaining in popularity in developed countries such as the US, and as many as half a million US citizens a year travel out of the country for medical treatment. Many hospitals in the US and Europe encourage patients to visit countries such as India for medical consultations. It is estimated that, by 2015, India will receive over half a million medical tourists annually. Hence, hospitals in Europe and the Americas are increasingly adopting technological advancements such as Business Process Automation (BPA) solutions, and Laboratory Information Systems (LIS) to integrate various processes of the hospital and simultaneously enable efficient patient data transferring capabilities across different countries. Such technological advancements are becoming essential for medical tourism, which requires overall process integration and efficient data sharing capabilities.
According to the report, currently, healthcare organizations are increasingly adopting electronic health record (EHR) systems as they reduce medical errors by helping healthcare workers make the right decisions. Moreover, they improve the overall efficiency of medical organizations and enhance staff productivity. Hence, with hospitals and physicians realizing the benefits of the EHR system, its adoption is expected to increase during the forecast years.
Further, the report also discusses that one of the major concerns for healthcare organizations is the security of patient information.
The study was conducted using an objective combination of primary and secondary information including inputs from key participants in the industry. The report contains a comprehensive market and vendor landscape in addition to a SWOT analysis of the key players.
